So my sister has moved here to the US, and she is super hot. My friends, family, coworkers, neighbors and everybody I know have been telling me to get her to be an actress. We don't live in LA. She is studying business in college. How do I start this process, and how do I get her an agent?

Does script memorization get easier with time? by anonymousanomo • last post May 23rd
I’ve always been amazed by how actors are able to memorize their lines, and one of the things that makes me doubt about pursuing acting, is that I won’t be able to memorize as fast or as good as other actors. So if you’ve been an actor for some years, please tell me I’ve you seen a difference on how easy is it for you now to memorize compared to when you first started. I know that memory is a muscle and the more you practice it, the better you become at it. This is not a question about how to memorize stuff.
Mastering a type or cultivating versatility? by exhausted799 • last post May 23rd
Hi! I’d like to know your opinions. Whom would you consider a better actor: A has *mastered* a certain type (or two, or three, even) of character, but rarely leaves his comfort zone; B is more versatile and can play more types of characters, but his performances are generally regarded as just good/solid. (Or maybe neither is better and their approach to the craft just differs? Does either make a difference in the business?)

Emma Thompson. Love Actually. The Both Sides Now Scene. by PsychologicalFilm130 • last post May 23rd
I am not a particularly big fan of the film *Love, Actually*, however, the scene where Emma Thompson finds out that her husband is cheating on her and goes into the bedroom to cry before coming back out and putting on a brave face for her kids...OH MY GOD!!! That scene is such a masterclass in acting and a huge inspiration to me in regards to the level of emotion I want to be able to convey(It's my dream as an actor to learn how to cry on command ESPECIALLY the way she does it in this scene!) For me, it's the way that she doesn't do much, it's not a huge breakdown with sobbing it's just a few tears running down her cheeks, a devastated, pained expression on her face while she just stands there. What a brilliant piece of acting!
Acting critique on true romance. by Newactorintown • last post May 23rd
So, I watched this movie "True Romance" written by Quentin Tarantino, and directed by Tony Scott and first I gotta say, it's brilliantly amazing, but I wanna talk more about acting performance by all actors in it, I only realised it at the beginning of the movie when they show the cast, that it have names like Christopher Walken, Brad Pitt and Gary Oldman too. I think Gary Oldman is almost unrecognizable in the movie and bad-ass, Christopher Walken is also simply great, Brad Pitt did a good job with the role he had, but what about the performance by Christian Slater as Clarance Worely, I do think he did pretty good job for his part but wanna listen to critiques opinion on that performance and what could he have done better if there was room for it. Also, is there a place like a blog, sub or something where we can see critiques opinion on actors performance in different movies.
Move to US with a work visa by angeliclovexox • last post May 22nd
I once read that it's possible to apply for a work visa in US after proving that you've acted in many movies/shows in your own country and many newspapers have written about you. I'm not sure whether this is true or not and I can't find the post here. Can someone tell me if this is true? Do I only move to US within the shooting days? Or can I stay there as long as I'm working as an actor?

A concern for the future by Marteez • last post May 22nd
Alright, so I want to become a voice actor, but I'm still just trying to figure it all out. Recently, my dad visited some tech video conference and talked to some of the people there. He said that there's some software being developed that could just simulate life-like voices, only needing sample words. My question is: How bad is this for voice actors? I'm uncertain about the future and unsure whether I should even try getting into this scene.
Acting without my co-actors? by YellowOrangeYo • last post May 22nd
This is my first film ever and I dont have any acting experience. My director wants to film us individually because my co actors are not all available so he wants to go this route. Will this even work? Instead of acting with my co-actors he'll be acting their roles for me apart from his own role in the film too. We are not chasing any kind of deadline or submission date. I already suggested that we should take our time. I told him that this individual shooting wont work for me. I really think we'll be doing it improperly and we won't be putting out our best work. I really want to act with my co actors. What should I do?
Looking for a two voice actors to read a single line each by jlfk99nitro • last post May 22nd
Hello, I am currently in the process of editing my first horror short film. In my script I wrote two radio hosts who are having a conversation with each other. The main character is flipping through channels so they are cut off after each only speaking one line each. I am looking for two different people to record these lines for me and am willing to pay around $15 for one line via paypal. Is anyone interested?
Seek actress comment. by NevadaWriter • last post May 22nd
I’ve completed a feature-length film script that has two female leads. An American tribal Indian and her female drinking buddy from 12-light-years away. I would appreciate an actress review the story and share her professional acting knowledge.
Where to Find Infos About Being a Show Host by FurmidableCat • last post May 22nd
I am trying to « reinvent » myself as an actor during the pandemic and feel like becoming a show host is similar enough to give it a try. However, I can’t find any subreddit on this topic and there is way less information about hosting compared to acting. Do you know where I could find a community that could help me? I am sorry for asking the question here, but acting is the thing I find to be the most similar to hosting. And if someone can help with the translation, in French we use the word « animateur » or « animatrice » for a lot of things including being a show host but also any type of job that includes entertaining a group of people. Which word should I use in English for things similar to this? Thank you
Having my doubts as a new actor. by MoonSunbeams • last post May 22nd
Should I even get into acting? I’ve always loved it and have been in theatre a few times. But lately I’m thinking about a life in Florida. I grew up there and have visited twice recently so I know it well. I can see myself living there forever over California. I thought about acting for Disney World or maybe Universal since I love the parks!! Maybe I am destined to do that. I don’t know and I’m still so confused. I definitely still have a lot of weight to lose before auditioning for Disney, I would love fitness as a back up career.
Non Union Rant by MarieN1989 • last post May 22nd
So, I know it’s a necessary evil when building a reel and your resume, and I’ve done a few good professional ones, but also have had more that felt less than professional (actors not showing up, not knowing lines, etc.) I recently got a lead in an indie and the other main actor completely didn’t show up to set (not the first time either), leaving us to scramble at the last minute with talks of even having to reshoot their scenes... This would never happen at the SAG level where there’s more vetting for the talent overall and much higher budgets. But since I’m not SAG yet and still at the non union status, what are some tips for finding quality non union projects other than them being paid, etc., or is it just part of the grind till you become sag? Just a mini vent lol
DESPRATELY IN NEED FOR MALE ACTOR by GreyIceberg99 • last post May 21st
I'm making a project where I need someone that's a bit on the older side, around 20-30 yrs old. It's a online facetime, so you can just be at home and the it's only a 30-40 sec long conference. The actor, I need is to be a little radical and kinda crazy. The role is about he put rodenticide in a covid-vax and injected himself with it. So is there anyone who willingly will participate to the role. Please respond, we may be in a different timezone, so I might not respond quickly. I hope
What voice actors had you surprised when you heard their regular speaking voice? by jvazquez95 • last post May 21st
Tara Strong because it's so deep, mature, and womanly in contrast to her bubbly girl and arrogant boy typecasting. Dee Bradley Baker because it has this raspy and mature drawl to it sounding radically different to his childish and hyperactive character typecasting. Fred Tatascoire because it's still deep, but very mature and not gruff like his dumb muscle typecasting.
