I have some stupid questions. 1. Can you be a very successful actor in Hollywood and still be a good person? by Free_Thinker_Society • last post Jun 13th
2. Can I still be a successful actor in Hollywood if I’m politically independent? It seems Hollywood is extremely one sided. 3. How easy it it to get caught up on the dark corrupt side Hollywood? I hear stories for example like pedophilia in Hollywood. I don’t want to be part of that all. 4. Can you be a very successful actor in Hollywood and still have positive friends, great family life balance, and have a meaningful career?
Have I any voice acting potential? by jhg123jhp123 • last post Jun 13th
Hello everyone and thank you very much for reading this post. I'm a 19 year old guy with an exceptionally deep voice, and whenever I use my microphone in multiplayer games I play or in Zoom meetings, I'm told my voice is "pleasant", "extremely deep", and "sultry". Now I've been interested in voice acting for some time, and 2 voice actors I've always thought I would be like are of Christopher Lee, the English actor, and John Patrick Lowrie, a voice actor for many video games. I am asking is there any potential for voice acting roles for especially deep voices? I appreciate any help, and apologies if I haven't made this post detailed enough, not sure what I should include for someone wanting to get into voice acting, but I will try to have very detailed answers. Thank you and all is much appreciated!
Recently I spoke with Writer Tim Sheridan about his projects and he had some wonderful stories of working with voice actors like Jerry O'Connell, Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill (THE Joker!). by Thegeekofsteel • last post Jun 13th

Is anyone here a massage therapist? by aisle4sleep • last post Jun 12th
I am looking into becoming certified in MT because it seems like a good skill to have in order to have access to flexible jobs that would allow me to act. Looking for info from any other actors who do this.

Acting and Vulnerability by ShadowMarionette • last post Jun 12th
I started acting last year, just joining in productions at my university theater. It went well. I got roles for every audition, and this year, I got my first lead role. It went alright. By that I mean I was able to ride my anxiety through the first performance (thankfully it was received well), after which I spent the rest of the night vomiting, and ended up being too tired and sick to do the next day's performance. This was the first role I ever actually had to be very emotionally vulnerable, and I think that is what did it. I can act out emotions like sorrow or pain or fear but I can't stand doing it in front of an audience or a director. I don't know why but I just feel stupid every time. I see this as the main thing stopping me from really going after acting (hobby or professional) in the future and I was wondering how some more experienced actors deal with this. So, that's what I'm asking: how in the world do you let go and make yourself vulnerable in front of an audience when acting out such intense emotions?
Borrowing acting voice techniques as a singer? by willrjmarshall • last post Jun 12th
Hey guys, I'm a singer, rather than an actor; but I perform in a style that's unusually narrative and story oriented, with lots of influence from David Bowie, Nick Cave & Leonard Cohen. Over the last year or so, I've discovered my singing is limited less by my technical abilities, and more by my control of my speaking voice: accent, ability to inhabit a character, articulation, and creative warping of my voice. For my purposes, the folks whose voice work I most admire are often Shakespearian actors, especially when doing audio books. Jeremy Iron's performance of The Waste Land ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYROFY\_Kh8M](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYROFY_Kh8M)) is a great example. Because I have no background in acting, I don't really know where to start looking. I'd love some advice on terminology & resources so I can educate myself more!

Aspiring actor based in Philadelphia. Where would I find a good/reputable acting coach? by JakeThaGreat001 • last post Jun 12th
Is there like a website to find them? What’s the most you think you should pay for one (like how much an hour would YOU pay a acting coach?)? And how long do you think it would take to get proficient with said acting coach in your corner?
Do you breathe in with your nose or your mouth? by feliaraen • last post Jun 12th
When I search up proper diaphragmatic breathing technique, it usually says breathe in from the nose. But recently, I found a few voice actors saying that mouth breathing is much quieter. Which one is better?
How does an actor like Freddie Highmore make it possible that the character is in him, breathes in him and lives inside him? by rrr_rrr • last post Jun 12th
Hey, I don't know anything about acting, but I love some actors like Freddie Highmore. His acting is always superb and I think he is a genius. It seems to me that what makes him superb is: As for other good actors/actresses, it's like they make a mold of the character's body and get inside it. Or they make a mask or body suit of the character and put it on them. In short, the character is like their clothes. As sometimes they wear stripes and sometimes they wear polkadots, sometimes they play a good person and sometimes they play a murderer. They are like a chameleon. I think this method works and it creates good acting. As for Highmore, it seems the character is in him, breathes in him and lives inside him. So his acting seems more organic and interesting to me. How is he doing this?
How long should I wait before adding lessons to my resume? by irishdancer2 • last post Jun 12th
Short and sweet: During the shutdown, I've been fortunate enough to take weekly private lessons with a respected, well-known actor. Obviously this is something I'd like to add to my resume, as the name recognition would be huge, but I'm questioning the timing since it has only been a couple months. Roughly how long should I be taking lessons with someone before it's appropriate to add that training to my resume?
Im planning to test my luck abroad with my acting skills, and I have some questions I would really appreciate your comments by KCDLARG • last post Jun 12th
Hello, Im 24 yo and am currently living in Argentina. I've been acting and training since 2015. I also can manage English pretty well, more so on the oral aspect. This, together with the fact that I consume a lot of movies, series and realitys that are in english led me to come up with the idea of going abroad to any english speaking country with a strong acting production and test my luck. ¿Do you know any site that I can look into where castings are posted for countries like USA, UK, or Europe? ¿Do you have any recommendation in particular? It can be in any aspect that you feel you can help, for example: Countries and their culture, Economic ones, travel, etc., To wrap this up, if you are an actor/actress that did something similar to what im planning to do, please let me know if you have any experience that could help me prepare. Thanks a lot for reading!
Looking for an actor for a spoof online doc about corona virus, screenplay written, about 10 pages per character by seanbastard1 • last post Jun 11th
The screenplay is written, need two actors - aged 30s minimum who would be up for collaborating on this - you will need access to a (ideally 4k capable) dslr camera & mic, I'm still locked in over here - so i can't film this myself, hence reaching out online, but I will help with camera & lighting set up over facetime, etc if needed. There is no money to be made here, we're just doing this for an excuse to be creative whilst we can't do our regular day jobs (I'm a editor and videographer by trade - www.agency159.com for my work) if we can pull it off it'll go on youtube for free & hopefully give some people something to have a giggle about in this shitty time. My co-writer is based in london (where i'm from) and I'm stuck in Barcelona in one of the strictest lockdowns in the world, so making a short during this time, under these restrictions - is somewhat of a challenge, but hey, its been fun so far. After watching 'plandemic' and seeing all the other bullshit posted about bill gates, we decided to make our own corona virus doc and just like plandemic - everything is bullshit... but we've had some fun with it, did you know bill gates fascination with tracking devices started when he was asked to put a GPS in some gerbils for one of epsteins parties? that should give you some idea The film is about 20 mins, and features two interviews, one w/ a scientist and the other with an ex microsoft employee - they both get around 10 pages each. If this is something you'd be interested in reply here or PM me and i'll email you over a copy of the sreenplay. Ta
