I'm new at this... by Probably_not_CIA • last post Jun 11th
I'm a middle aged man, now...yet, one of my greatest regrets is that I never followed through with my love of acting and actors. A long time ago, way back in high school, I went out for drama class. I was awful, I couldn't do a step-ball-change to save my life, and the drama instructor let me know it...one of the most painful memories I have of those years... Now, as I face my later years, I wonder...is it too late? Have any of you gone through this and found your limelight...perhaps a bit later than you would have preferred? Do I still need to master a ball-change-cross before I try and audition with a local theater group?
Actor ARIELLE UPPALURI shares her story on Discover Me TV by AutoFocusChannel • last post Jun 11th
I'm 21 and want to start acting! But I'm terrified and I would love some advice :') by youngsmartbutsad • last post Jun 11th
Prepare for incoming sappy post. Long story short: I'm 21, a south asian (indian) girl who looks younger than she seems, living in ATL, GA. I've been stuck doing STEM my entire life and have ALWAYS regretted not getting more into the arts. I've been feeling super sucky about it, so I've finally decided that is enough is enough-- there is no better time to start than now. That being said, I am hoping to start acting classes during the fall semester in Atlanta and continue for at least an entire year. Something that's holding me back is that I'm fearful there will be no roles for someone who looks like me. I can name all the south asian actresses that I know in America on both my hands. I would love some insight on this. What are my chances with my race and age? And last but not least, if I have any fellow south asian friends on here, please say hi!

How to improve my speaking? by Zarrusso • last post Jun 11th
I'm an amatuer italian voice actor. And starting from september i will be attending professional courses, and hoping this to become my future job. I already went to some acting classes in my city but the group wasn't very organized and didn't learn much. And to improve myself i make sure to read out loud a book for at least for an hour a day. Are there some others excercises that i can take to improve myself?

I am deeply disappointed by mental_boss • last post Jun 11th
Struggling actors can't make ends meet during this pandemic. And I had think of a backup career option. Preparing for entrance tests and going for higher education is what I chose. I am so overwhelmed and sad. I feel wronged and abused at the hands of an unknown entity. There's no one to blame. I want to pursue acting on the side, have a day job and do it at weekends too. I am so heartbroken for all my dreams. I don't know who to get angry at. We're all grieving one way or another during this pandemic. I wish things could go back to the way they were, so I could keep auditioning and supporting myself too. I am from India, Mumbai. Will the field of acting and the entertainment industry change for the worse?
Staring off by metoobud • last post Jun 11th
I’d like to be an actor. I know that it doesn’t happen overnight, or soon at all. But I’d like to give it a shot. Money is a bit tight, so it’s hard to find a website that lets me apply for stuff without a subscription. Even if I would pay, I don’t really know if what I’m paying for is legitimate. What you recommend? I’d like to start by working as a movie extra or do commercial work.
Headshot-Age Range-Character Type Post - Jun 11 by AutoModerator • last post Jun 11th
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.
Possible Paid gig for cartoon voice work by wunderingbread • last post Jun 11th
Hey what's up? Sorry this might be sloppy..., I'm starting a cartoon about a rat that is 30 getting fired from a radio station that's changing formats and starts a podcast for rock music n stuff, that is the foundation of it. I was wondering if I pay you for you're time (not a lot sorry because I'm screwed With hospital bills rn) If any men and women would be interested in helping me out with some of the characters voices.If you have any questions please ask. I'm looking for.... ★Some one time characters (M&F) ★ Recurring characters: Main Bartender (F) 2nd Bartender (M) Podcast Helped (F) Friend (M or F) More TBD (M&F) I'm still working out the details and securing the social media and website name so I'll be looking for actors for a few months really... I'm kinda new on needing help with my projects so I'm not sure how to go about all this. Payment will be determined by actual use in my cartoon. I mean obviously recurring characters will have a plan set up, but others we'll have to figure out something. Everyone will be paid through PAYPAL or CASHAPP. ★I guess just leave a comment with a sampling of your work and we can start there. ★★★I'd really prefer you just send me a message me on here and I'll reply or email you from there. Sorry again that this is sloppy as heck.

I am a voice actor. Now what? (Rant) by Jackerwestlake • last post Jun 10th
Quarantine has made me realize I hate my current job. The thought of returning has actually made me anxious and, honestly, angry. I've spent the last 2 years saying "I want to be a voice actor" but because of life and work, I put it on the back burner. God damnit, I have 2 diplomas from 3 years in college in audio, I did voice acting there as part of the curriculum. I AM a voice actor. Now with the idea of returning to work, I have a choice to make; do I take my demo reel, my voices.com membership, and "vanilla" experience and give it both barrels in hopes of getting some kind of work in the near future, at least enough to make my rent; or do I return to the job I hate and both needlessly put myself in harms way for a company that doesn't give a rats ass about my well being and be miserable but stable for a time, all while this virus threatens to invade my life? Or, option 3, do I try and find another job? I legit feel frustrated and at a loss here. Just need to vent it out. Rant done.

I have/had a dream by cobesa_01 • last post Jun 10th
Since I have memory I have always loved the idea of acting as a career. I admired famous actors back in the day, listened to their stories of success, how they overcame drugs and other problems to dedicate their hearts to acting. However I never took that step, I never educated myself formally (acting in plays or going to an acting school) on the subject. I feel my life is not going to go that way, all is headed towards studying in university, getting a job and living my life. Although I won’t complain for that, It’s just sad, the motivation is still there but I have no idea if I GOT IT. I probably don’t and should leave my fantasy of someday becoming a famous actor who just stars in good movie. I have no education on the matter, have never acted, don’t even know where to start and just don’t have the gift.
