Is it wearing a penis sock, or is the actor really rubbing his penis against the actor's vagina.
Hi! South Asian actor looking for a talent manager. Please message me if interested.
Hey guys. I've been acting for a little over a year and am self taught. I finally did enough student films to make a reel and submitted it to #showreelshareday over on Twitter. This led to an exchange with an agent who said they're interested in me! Personally this is a huge milestone regardless of whether I end up on their books, but how can I make the best impression from this point onwards? They asked whether I'm in any upcoming theatre performances, which I'm not (screen actor). So I told them my showreel is very recent (one 2018 performance, three 2019 performances) and that I'm happy to demonstrate my current skill level or arrange a chat. Did I handle this okay? Thanks for any insight.
I recently scheduled an audition to be a touring children's theater actor. It tours around elementary schools in my city (or at least close to it). I'm starting to like the idea of it, because for 9 whole months, I'll be an employed actor. My dream has always been to be a regularly employed actor, so it just makes sense. I don't know what the pay is like, but that isn't my main concern. Does anyone have any experience as a touring children's theater actor?
Hello! Not into acting here, but today I watched a youtube video making fun of Keanu Reeves having the same expression no matter what and it got me thinking about facial expressions. The first thing that came to my mind was that some people just are unable to show "exaggerated" emotions without looking weird, I mean, I know some people that just can't look angry even when they say they are really angry. I myself have an "asshole resting face", and even when I feel very happy people ask me why I am pissed or sad... but then I got curious about how actors with such characteristics have their performance judged. Is there such thing as a naturally inexpressive face or people like Keanu are just bad at acting? I didn't watch many movies with Keanu, but I all movies I watched I thought the lack of expression was a combination of a cold character plus his natural "coldness" (like, his normal is colder than most people and he is trying to have a poker face despite his natural facial expression being expressionless because his natural is... well... his normal expressiveness). ​ Thanks!
Without going into too much of my history, I see myself as an actor. It honestly feels like I don’t want to do anything else. I have some experience from high school and college, but no formal training. There is an acting school next to my home but it is not in LA. I was told that acting schools that are not in the city are not worth mentioning. How can someone like me get started?
Hello, my name is Riley Chandler and I have always been interested in acting since I was young. Since I live in a small town I never had the opportunity to be an actor and growing up my family didn’t have the money to send me places to audition. Now I am older and I will be moving to a bigger city with more opportunity and I have my own finances in order. I would still like to start acting but I fear that I am too old and unexperienced to have any value to the industry. It’s something that I think about nonstop, and the more I think, the more it becomes depressing. It’s hard for me to see and follow successful peoples of the industry because it is as if my greatest fear is never being able to fulfill my dreams. I will continue to work at it if it’s worth my while. I just need to know if I am following hopeless dreams or if I should continue in hopes of a lead in an original series. I’ve talked to my godmother and she has told me that I am too old and I need to focus on my career in real estate. I would just like others opinions and the cold hard truth. If you have any advice please let me know. Thank you!
I came to New York in 1991 to study with theater giants Uta Hagen and Bobby Lewis while pursuing a professional career. Ten years later, I was asked to teach an acting class and fell in love with teaching, which I've been doing ever since. Throughout my career, I've taught in private studies, graduate programs, and universities. Currently, I teach and help lead a conservatory in NYC for whom I travel the country doing workshops for actors who are interested in making a living and furthering their studies on camera. Today, I'm here to *try* and answer any questions you might have about studying acting. AMA.
I have been researching this a lot and it seems that everyone trained in highly selective places like RCS, guildhall, AADA and RADA etc. Can anyone give any notable people who didn't go to a famous drama school?
Let's network and see how we can help each other! For instance Im a rapper and producer and am always looking to collaborate with people! Let's start a conversation about marrying acting and music together to create art!
Hey everyone, we're happy to announce an AMA for tomorrow afternoon, 2 PMish Eastern Standard Time, from the president of an East Coast acting conservatory. He'll be happy to answer all your questions, especially pertaining to training and getting started on the path of an actor. Keep an eye out and get those questions ready!
Any other actors out there from MN, namely the twin cities area, that know of any good places to get acting lessons? I've been looking for awhile now but I'm a little overwhelmed. Any input would be appreciated!
I was thinking about a comment a while back that I saw on here that said Twitter's not a good idea for professionals to use (I looked but I can't find the comment). I see plenty of professional actors using Twitter so I was just wondering what you guys thought. I used to use Twitter but I found it to be toxic (I find social media in general to be but Twitter especially so). In this day and age, I know social media is a good thing to have and is a great tool to use for networking which is essential in this industry. But should I avoid Twitter and just stick to Instagram, Facebook and YouTube? Maybe LinkedIn? Thanks!
Starting a new one today and I'm excited but kind of nervous. The pay is great and they have really nice benefits for part time employees such as sick time and vacation time. However, I've worked in the food service industry for so long I'm used to being able to swap shifts and such for auditions and whatnot. My new job doesn't have that, but many actor/film people work there and my friend who is also an actor works there and they say that as long as auditions and things like that are communicated, it's usually not a problem. I'm thinking that doing theater shouldn't be a problem since the center is closed by 6 and not open on the weekends. I am a little worried about doing film just because I always get anxious when I have to ask for something that might inconvenience other people (ex. asking for them to work with me for a day or two if I need to come in late or something). Thanks for letting me nervously ramble! Sending you all good vibes this Monday!
There's something like this on this Facebook group I belong to. I looked but didn't find anything similar, however if there is and I've just missed it please direct me to it. I just figure that so much of the indie film world relies upon networking ourselves...it would be good to connect with as many people with similar interests as possible. At the risk of sounding cheesy I've made some tremendous friends and found some great collaborators online so I'd be happy to connect with anyone looking for a bit of a signal boost themselves. ​ Where can I find you online? ​ Here I am...
