If a casting director sends me two sides when invited for an audition, should I do both or just one? by echappe  •  last post Dec 9th

Of course I’ll shoot both and send them in, but I was just wondering if the purpose of providing two different parts of the script was to see the actor do both or to give them the option. Thank you for your help!

Recommendations on where to get started? by Scoute248  •  last post Dec 9th

Hello! I am a beginner voice actress who just got out of a voice training program, and is ready to hit the ropes. I have a full list of possible places to look for gigs, but I was wondering if there were any experienced actors here who have specific recommendations? I do not have a demo yet due to pricing, so the best recommendations would be those that do not require demos. I do, however, have a home studio. Any advice? I understand it is a very vague question, so if you are unable to provide recommendations, no worries. I figured it’s worth a shot.

Looking for a voice actor by LiveStreamHub  •  last post Dec 9th

Hello, I am looking for a voice actor who has a deep and energetic tone that can do Voiceovers similar to the channels linked below. You will be paid per 1000 words, starting rate will be $12.50 per 1000 words, however, there is room for an increase. Scripts will typically be 2000 words long, with multiple scripts per week (long term work). If you're interested send me some of your sample work - Josh [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wupfe30r-gY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wupfe30r-gY) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7lv5fHWVIc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7lv5fHWVIc)

So, I watched this award video by MathematicianLeft07  •  last post Dec 9th

I recently watched Joaquin P, my favorite actor\`s award video, so in this video he said one thing that confused me, he said that "We all know there is no fuckin best actor" and its just for the tv shows, so it sparked a question in my mind, Is this true that there is no greatest actor in the world, every great actor is equal or he is just being humble?

Acting in the US as an immigrant by Opening-Race6586  •  last post Dec 9th

Within the past year I started taking online acting classes from American acting schools in New York and also worked with an accent coach to get rid of my German accent (I have also done theatre at school pretty much my whole life). I would love to become an actress but most movies from my country are complete bs romantic comedies with the same three actors without a proper storyline or message or really anything different or daring that would make them slightly interesting. That‘s why I would rather work on American feature films/tv shows/short films because I want to work on projects that I am excited about. What do I have to do to start an international career? (e.g. What are the steps, when is the right time to reach out to agents in america, visa, …) Thank you in advance for answers :)

Headshot-Age Range-Character Type Feedback by AutoModerator  •  last post Dec 9th

Use this thread to post your headshots for feedback, get info on your age range/type, find good headshot photographers, ask any questions you may have about headshots. If you are posting a DIY headshot for feedback, and not just a snapshot in order to get feedback on your age range/type/etc, it is advised that you do at least some basic research on what actor headshots look like--composition, framing, lighting. You will find a Google Image search for "actor headshots" to be very helpful for this. Non-professional shots are fine for age/typecasting; please keep in mind that one picture is a difficult way to go about this. Video of you moving and speaking would be ideal, but understandably more difficult to post. For what it's worth, the branding workshop at SAG-AFTRA recommends a five-year age range. That's inclusive, so for example 19-23, 25-29, 34-38, etc.

Actors: what gifts would like your loved ones to give you? by theshinyleopard  •  last post Dec 9th

Feel free to explain why. (Some might say "money", but wouldn't you feel like the gift giver didn't put any thought into their gift if they gave you money?)

Getting an agent if you moved to the US a couple of years ago by Euphoric-Tune-6997  •  last post Dec 9th

Hello, so I’ve been lurking on this sub for a while and wanted to ask this question. So I’m trying to be an actor which I already started by doing student films and indie films but there is probably a not so big obstacle in the way. I wasn’t born in the US, my parents moved here when I was like 12 due to killings in my country and we’ve been staying here since then. I’ve gotten a social, work permit, drivers license, etc. i don’t have a green card yet. Now here’s where the real problem lies, will I be able to get an agent or do these still stand against my chance of getting one. I plan on moving to New York soon for more training and experience. But yeah that’s the story, do y’all think I can still get an agent with the circumstances? Cheers!

Actors Teeth by chrislabel  •  last post Dec 8th

How important are actors teeth? and any advice (option) I've recently had a few teeth extractions from the side of mouth so it's not super noticeable but it is if i did a massive smile or on camera. I want to wait till my gums have healed to get implants which the whole process could be 6 months to a year and then pursue acting work... Is this silly that I am worried about my image on camera? It has been the biggest kick to my confidence regarding acting.
