My accent by BostonianNewYorker  •  last post Apr 20th

When people point out my accent, I start to notice it. People would always say that my accent sounds like an Italian mobster in the 1940s. Some said I should be a voice actor for a criminal or a police officer. How do you feel about the Brooklyn accent? I'm unsure about the accent I have is suitable for voice acting because people always think I should be a criminal

Any opinions from fellow actors/actresses? by mangial  •  last post Apr 20th

https://youtu.be/ro0hOlvLsmg I just watched this youtube video from a casting director known also for her work in HBO productions. she claims that no demo reel is better than having a reel self-taped. please let me know your perspective on that because im very stressed about sending a self tape of scenes of monologues from movies to the auditions im intereeted in. or should i send just the cover letter and my cv? The thing is that i dont have any professional work in tape so that i could showcase my work. i feel that demo reel (even a self-taped one) is required in order for the casting directors to see how you perform and how you look on camera (correct me if im wrong) so it doesnt matter whether the video is footage from work you’ve done (professionally done work) or amateur (self-taped). This particular casting director says that seeing an unprofessional tape which is clearly not a film/show footage is immediately dismissed and the actor is not taken seriously. Please fellow actors and actresses let me know your opinions on that matter. it truly matters to me cuz im new in this and i am very anxious cuz im considering sending my first resume with a self-tape this week and I need some more insight as a newbie in this field!

What kind of voice work do actors need? by Movie-Connoisseur  •  last post Apr 20th

I've seen a countless amount of people say how voice work is extremely important for actors, I'm just curious, what kind of voice work? Is it singing? I'm sorry, just a little confused. I just watched a Larry Moss interview ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqspj-jL-Q0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqspj-jL-Q0)) and he said that you should be working on voice every day, along with dialects. What kind of voice work should I be looking into? He also said you should be doing a daily vocal warm up. Thank you

Getting started by Chalicus  •  last post Apr 20th

Hi there! I used to want to be a voice actor when I was a kid but never really followed up on it. I still practice voices for DnD and other things but I’d like to start recording seriously. I have a blue yeti mix and access to a recording studio. Is there anything else I should look into?

American accents? by toastiemangoes  •  last post Apr 19th

hi I'm a young aspiring actor hoping to make it big one day but I realise that my accent is sort of thick. it's not thick for where I'm from but it seems important for most TV and movies to have an American accent. so I'm wondering on some tips to help with my accent. I'm from the north of Ireland I'd that matters.

Can you be both an actor and casting director? I have an opportunity to be a casting assistant. by dramaticunt  •  last post Apr 19th

Hey everyone. Is it possible to work as a casting director but also be able to work as an actor? I am talking about professional actor and professional casting. There is an opportunity for me to work as a casting assistant and I do enjoy casting very much. I am not sure if there is anything that prevents you from doing so? I have seen actors who are casting assistants, but never have I seen casting directors yet.

I’m a 20 year-old college student who wants to become a Hollywood actress. by mayukha1999  •  last post Apr 19th

No point to give an unnecessary introduction, so I’ll get to the point. I’m 20 years old, an Indian living in India. I want to become an actress, I love acting, I always loved it. I have no idea how to become one, because I’m not interesting in acting in Bollywood films. I don’t know how to get hold of an agent, and it’s probably too late to start trying anyways. But still, I want to try asking y’all once. Any suggestions? Any way for me to find an agent? And how in the world do I find an agent or an agency that’s reputed and known? Someone give me a few insights

Is there a term for the phenomena where a male voice has its “higher” noise and also the deeper “from the chest” sound? by Supes_man  •  last post Apr 19th

I’ve really been noticing this happen when comparing my own voice to others on different types of headphones and phone speakers. When listening on AKG studio headphones (with as flat of a sound curve as possible) my voice recordings seem quite deep with a lot of bass. Deeper than many other male voice actors I will compare with, there’s a lot of low end rumble that I know comes from the chest. But when listening on tiny laptop or phone speakers, my voice sounds sharp and higher than those same other actors I’m listening to. Is there a term for this? Where there’s a mainline “spoken” range and then an underlying bass?
