Acting Classes for Voice Over by TerryLennox  •  last post Sep 15th

I'm looking at taking acting classes and using those skills to help start a Voice Over career. Should I be looking for anything specific, or just find a program I like that will help improve my acting skills in general?

Filling Out Casting Profiles by ChampagneGoggles  •  last post Sep 13th

I have heard a lot of varying advice on filling out casting files, be it Actors Access, Backstage, Casting Networks (gotta have them all...*eye roll*), like make sure to include both headshots AND candid photos (which should be kept as current as possible), include a reel if available, and of...

I've always been interested in acting but don't know where to start. I'm looking for acting classes in my area. Where do you even start? Could get some help on the best course of action. I'm from the Nebraska, could get some feed back on some help.

Callback advice for your fellow actors! by lightsvber  •  last post Sep 2nd

Actors! What advice do you have for your peers regarding callbacks? One general piece of advice I've heard over the years is that you should go in and not change anything that you did unless instructed to do so, but are there any other things that you do to help...

Dear All Seeing /Pol/, lowly geezer swamp pede here. In violation of your commands, but not the chain of command, I am asking for your consideration of these words. Maybe in here are some of the Soro's Droids you seek? From the public record... Thank you, by Marylander1109  •  last post Sep 2nd

Website Quotes and Report: **This report looks at how media development practitioners are reacting to the rise of the Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) agenda, and its growing influence on their field. This influence is the cause of concern, not only because practitioners of CVE and media development have fundamentally different worldviews, but because the CVE agenda is seen to pose serious risks for southern media houses and the organizations that support them. Still, these risks are unlikely to be addressed without coordinated efforts from both sides. However uneasy the relationship, a dialogue between CVE and media development is needed.** IRS 990 Forms: http://nccsweb.urban.org/communityplatform/nccs/organization/profile/id/010775069/popup/1 2014: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_201412_990.pdf 2013: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_201312_990EZ.pdf 2012: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_201212_990EZ.pdf 2011: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_201112_990EZ.pdf 2010: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_201012_990EZ.pdf 2009: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_200912_990EZ.pdf 2008: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_200812_990.pdf 2007: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_200712_990.pdf 2006: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_200612_990.pdf 2005: http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/010/010775069/010775069_200512_990.pdf

Formatting acting resume by ClassAct  •  last post Aug 31st

I'm trying to make an acting resume for the first time and need help formatting it. Any tips on how it should look and how to organize it?

Experience, Colleges, and Possibilities by lorichmegan  •  last post Aug 30th

Hey so I don't go to an acting school but I'm in my school's drama club and class, do dance, sing, etc. I've been on Backstage for a year or two but I don't live in California or New York so there aren't that many casting calls in my area....

Compensation for roles by Seconddam  •  last post Aug 29th

Forgive my naivety, I'm new to all of this... But when a role says it "pays $68/8 hours" does that mean you work for 8 hours and get paid $68.00? That's what it sounds like.

Our last casting experience by IamDB  •  last post Aug 24th

File this under “shameless plug” perhaps, but here at OC Actors we are seeing a trend in the submissions we’ve received for a movie we are producing. The trend is poorly lit, awful-sounding and over-crowded submission reels. Holy cow! Some of them are dreadful. The good news is that they...

Question about immigration by Kadesh Collie  •  last post Aug 23rd

I was wondering if there was anyone around who had any experience living in another country as an actor moved to the states to pursue it full time. I wanted to know the steps you took to get your entertainers visa and how long were you working in your home country before you moved.

Austin Area - Acting Classes, Workshops, Mentors by Seconddam  •  last post Aug 23rd

Any recommendations for the Austin area for acting classes and workshops? I'm ultimately wanting somewhere that can confirm whether I have what it takes or not. If I have potential I want someone to be able to tell me what I need to improve on.

How To Fulfill my Passion by Mary Helen Norris  •  last post Aug 22nd

If you had told me about 7 years ago that I would love to act, I'd laugh at you. I'd done a couple of plays when I was younger (ensemble roles, nothing major) and figured that the writing side was more my thing. But then, I got the opportunity to audition for a web series. While the project fell through, I still spent hours upon hours trying to figure out how to best play the role I'd been cast in. 


The project fell through, and for a while, I buried the love I had for acting (and to an extent screenwriting) and focused more on my novels and online content. 

But the itch has returned and now I want to do more acting, more screenwriting, and I find myself unsure as to how to do it. 

What skills are listed on your acting resume? by No1Stunner  •  last post Aug 21st

Saw this on Reddit and thought it would be cool to ask here too. What skills do you currently have listed on your acting resume? I have: Basic Improv, Basic Guitar, Singing (Baritone), Dancing (Hip Hop/Urban), and Martial Arts (Muay Thai). What do you have, forum folks?

Links instead of attachments for Agents? by Liolel  •  last post Aug 19th

I was wondering if it's polite to send a link to my Backstage profile instead of adding attachments when submitting to Talent Agencies. I feel like Backstage has such a convenient format and it's just so well composed. It would also save me tons of time... But I am not...

Auditioning for Friends by tryingalittle  •  last post Aug 16th

I recently became a member at a theatre and have my first audition for one of their shows approaching. I am not sure how to enter/slate/introduce myself because they all know me on a fairly personal level. Should I stick to a professional slate or be more of my casual...

Looking for an all-encompassing term by connorhawke  •  last post Aug 16th

If you do a variety of entertainment work, such as acting, voiceovers, music, etc, and wanted an umbrella term for these on your general CV (not acting/whatever résumé) what would you use? Media artist? Entertainer?

Stage Names by D_Gill  •  last post Aug 15th

My last name is Threadgill, but when submitting for roles I go under the name Gill. It's a personal preference. However, now that I'm considering moving to LA I looked at IMBD and I see there are already several actors going by my "stage name." Is that going to be...
