As a beginning actor, what sort of auditions should I be looking for? by zoobify112 • last post Nov 16th
Hello, and thanks for taking the time to read my post. So lately I've been really itching to act, as the last time I did was in high school, and only stopped because I hated my teacher. I'm planning on getting some training (by the way, would a 3-day intensive course count as training?) but right now I've just been going through local theatre auditions. The issue is, I feel like I would be way out of my league with a lot of the auditions I'm seeing, and don't really know where to start. Any advice?
Hey Voice Over Actors in Canada! Any advice on getting a professional voice over demo done? What is a good rate to pay? Any advice would be great! by Juan_Badmofo • last post Nov 16th
Stand in work on a resume- yes or no? by danikabananika • last post Nov 16th
I’ve always been of the opinion of if it’s not acting, it doesn’t belong on an acting resume. However, I’ve now done 3 large shows in which I stood in for the 1 or the 2 and worked with some pretty well respected DOPs for big studios. I’ve learned so much, from the technical aspect of acting, to working with Oscar and Tony winning actors. Not to mention understanding how a set works and set etiquette. What’s your stance on adding this to my resume?

Where to live by PeterHBarnes • last post Nov 15th
I have money saved. I want to move to LA, take classes, and get going in acting. I can find work waiting tables. The only missing piece is finding a roof to live under. Obviously finding roommates is the way to go. Are there any underground channels for actors/artists to find each other to share living spaces?
What does everyone think about the Scenebot app? by SweetDreamsHNL • last post Nov 15th
Is the pro version worth buying? (It has a "few more perks"). From their website: ### What exactly is Scenebot? Scenebot is an app and a website that allows actors to access audition material and upload their audition to be posted for casting professionals to select the best auditions to be posted to the app and website for review by industry agents, managers and casting directors. ### Who sees my videos? Monthly auditions chosen as honorable mentions and top selects are posted to the site for all members, both actors and industry professionals, to view. ### Is it possible to be contacted by agents, managers, casting directors, etc. through or from this app? Yes! All of the agents, managers, and casting directors listed in our industry directory have access to all of the honorable mentions and top selects via the app and website. ### Who gets seen by the Industry Pros? Is it just the Top Ten? What about Top Selects and Honorable Mentions? The best way to "Get Scene" by our pros is to make the Top Ten. Our pros receive a direct link to the Top Ten auditions each month!
Advice on my ex actor by onerighteye • last post Nov 15th
Hi so my ex was an actor as well right, and she hurt me pretty hard and we had a messy breakup. We hurt each other. She texted me the other day asking to meet up. I don’t want to, I want nothing to do with her. I’m worried though- that we’ll run into each other in acting projects, auditions, that she’ll make a billion dollars as a famous actor and I’ll be riddled with jealously or regret. Do any of you have any insight on my situation? I’m sorry for the unique question I’m sure this isn’t asked here much.
How do you know you’re ready for an agent? by dontcallmebythat • last post Nov 15th
A lot of beginning actors ask about agents, and the common answers tell them to take a class first, and do a bunch of student/indie films. I’m at a stage in my life where I am regularly submitting and auditioning for low/no pay roles and have a pretty full resume. However, I’ve only ever worked non-union jobs, and all the credits on my resume don’t have any recognizable names or titles. I do have a professional headshot and reel. Is this at the point where I should look for an agent? Should I get myself into the union first (most likely by trying to do more background work)?
Letting go post-audition by NobodyNamedSmith • last post Nov 15th
Just turned in a self-tape for a series regular. That feeling we all have when you did your best and let it go into the universe! Onward, actors! Happy Friday!
Need advice asap. Approach director/producers? by Bonelesszeeebra • last post Nov 15th
I'm currently serving some directors and producers in the restaurant I'm working at. They're talking about a film they're putting together. Would it be unprofessional if I were to mention I'm an actor? Would they just be annoyed? Thanks in advance
Still in consideration but not invited to callback? by TechCaptain • last post Nov 15th
Hello all, I recently auditioned for a musical (Into the Woods) for the first time since I was in middle school in 2009. I was invited to the callback (I still got it) but I noticed there was a segment in the call back announcement that said "The actors below are still in consideration for casting but are not needed at Sunday's callback". Is this a normal thing? Are they regulars at that theater and not needed to be evaluated again or something? Just a little confused is all.
Want to trade IMDb project ratings? by Tyson Turrou • last post Nov 15th
Hi All! I produced a feature called Loners and we've been hit by trolls, drastically reducing our IMDb rating (not star rating, but the __ out of 10 stars people give after watching). These jerks go through rating everything extremely low and because they rate so much, IMDb's algorithm gives them more weight. So we had 100 ratings with a 6.5 weighted average (even after getting 13 1's by trolls) and with three low ratings from these jerks we went down to a 4.8 overnight. Now when anyone goes to our Amazon page they see that rating. So we need to get it up! Anyone want to trade ratings with me? Something between a 7-9 (I don't think 10's are very good for improving the weighted rating). I've also rated a bunch of films, so my rating is worth more in their algorithm. Thanks!

Good sites for collaboration? (a la HitREcord) by voicelant • last post Nov 14th
I'm just kind of starting out as a hobby, building a reel, and having some fun. I'm just learning the ropes. I have really enjoyed messing with HitREcord and Behind The Voice Actors, but there are not a ton of projects out there at any given time. Where else can I link up with amateur animators, game devs, filmmakers, etc. who might need voice talent for their projects?
I'm absolutely raging with the lack of professionalism so I just wanted to vent. by actingstuff1 • last post Nov 14th
So I have recently wrote my own short film, which is pretty cool. I decide to cast it by holding auditons, even though I'm an amateur myself. The lead is going to one of my friends who I know is great, but I hold auditions for smaller roles. This one guy who I actually trained with in a workshop auditions, hes good, I give him the role. My mistake: I get a funny feeling about this dude but decide to offer him it anyway because of connections and the fact he is free every day. This is paid, just to say. Day one of filming starts and hes nowhere to be seen. We film parts without him, he ends up texting to say hes unwell. Cool, whatever. Day two happens and again he doesn't show up. This time I get a long ass text before reaching out to him about how he just cant do it, he feels too stressed and hasn't learned the lines. I text him back saying I'm annoyed, I've paid crew and other actors to be here and weve been let down, its botherd me and that I'll look for someone else for it. He tells me to give him til next week to get himself sorted and I tell him I cant, I've booked only a certain number of weeks to get this done or else I'd be losing money so I cant wait, I'll find someone available fast Cool, we continue filming and one of the guys friends actually steps in. However, we go on Facebook later that night and theres a big massive rant on his profile page about how important mental health matters in the acting industry and how many directors and actors and crew dont realise that sometimes someone is struggling and that you should be allowed an off day, a mental health day and that people need to be more aware that actors are dealing with their mental health being bad and that they shouldn't get rude or upset when they are depressed and then goes on to say hes recently been fired for his mental health. i'm ANNOYED. like so ANNOYED. this guy has many industry professionals and casting directors on his lists, hes very well connected and some of them are even commenting stuff like yes totally true!! without knowing the behind the scenes and telling him its ridiculous hes been fired for something like that nowhere did this guy tell me he had bad mental health, the word he used was "stressed" and his whole post is blasting us, anonymously for saying we were upset at him and re cast him Although he hasn't named us, I'm absolutely raging at the lack of professionalism to go on social media and complain when you're the one who ignored us for one day of filming and then cancelled a second time despite having commitments. Yes, people get depressed, but if you have a PLAN with someone dont get annoyed that they react when you decide you cant do something they've agreed to do with you. End of rant, I had to get that out here. It feels better.
