Hi! For those of you who have ever used the Actors Access Talent Link and have had some people reach out to them, what kind of profile did you have? I have a reel and some pictures but I was wondering if that was enough to get anyone’s attention. What was your experience?
I've been told that Seattle has plenty of acting opportunies. I myself am primarily located in Spokane, and I was wondering if there are any reputable agencies or ways to get acting work in my area? Or if anyone has any recommendations for sites that new actors can use to get started.
It’s one line, that’s it. I will pay a small price, probably around $5 USD. Thank you!
I'm a newer actor (making the leap from stand up/Improv comedy) so I don't have a lot of experience on camera and nothing in my reel but self-tapes. But this evening I just got my first set of sides and a EcoCast Audition for a role I submitted to on Actors Access!! Someone looked at my headshot and said, "Sure, they look they could do this." I know it's just a self-tape but I'm really proud of myself for submitting in the first place. And don't worry, I'm not expecting much in terms of hearing back. I'm just ready to give a great performance and see what comes next. Make sure to celebrate the small victories in this journey! Keep up the great work, everyone!
So back story: I was in acting classes in high school. Like, it was an actual subject. I loved it, my favorite class. I regret not trying out for plays, because I was the slacker who just wanted to leave school at the end of the day ASAP. I wish I did. Well anyway, I knew I wanted to act eventually, just wasn't sure of what I needed to do. But, I got pregnant with my first child about a year, year and a half after graduating. I put it on the back burner to raise my baby. And I had more babies lol. I have 4 of them now. I'm blessed and thankful to have them in my life, they are my every heartbeat. I mean there were times through the years my mind wondered back to my want of getting into acting, but again, I wanted to focus on my kids and well, I was insecure of what people would think because I'd already had my fair share of people expressing how "dumb" and how much of "a waste of a degree" it was. Well, then I was about to hit my 30s and my husband and I got talking about something he held in about what he wanted to do. So I told him ok don't laugh, but I always wanted to get into acting but I thought maybe I was too old to try getting into actually doing something. He said why would he laugh at that. I think I even reached out here on reddit a few years ago and many also assured me I wasn't too old to start. I even reached out to my acting teacher to ask him how to go about things. Well then financial issues arose. So I put getting into acting on the back burner again. It took a couple years to sort out, but we got through it. And because we're good again, I started my application for my local university that actually has theater/acting majors/minors. I even talked to the admissions consultant and he said since it's been so long since I graduated high school ('07), that all they'd need is my transcripts from high school and from the community college I went to back in like 2009 or 2010 area. I didn't get a degree from there, because I actually dropped out mid semester like a dope, because I was majoring in something I thought would be an ok job for me; it wasn't something I really, REALLY wanted to do. It was something that would be "stable". It was a mistake really to enroll in that college in that major to begin with. So that's the big thing I feel such a lag in my goals in my life about, what's holding me back from getting enrolled in the university to FINALLY do what I've always wanted to do, and show my kids that they can do what they set their minds to as well (just hopefully they don't sit on it as long as I have). How am I to lecture them about doing something with their lives (a job) they love and enjoy doing if I'm not doing it too? I'm glad I was there/am there during their formative years, but who says I really couldn't have done both though? Anyway, I can't get the transcript from the community college until I pay back what I owe from dropping out. I really truly thought they just deducted it from my tax refund because that's about when I stopped receiving calls and letters. I told them needed more time to figure out how I can pay them back. But like I said, thought it was done with after tax time. Man was I naive. So I told my husband that this tax time I needed to finally pay that back and get my transcript so I can move forward with the university. I have not been so sure of anything I wanted to do as I am of wanting to get into acting for real, for real. I know there will be lots of disappointments and let downs of not getting calls of being casted, that this kind of thing can take a while, years. And I'm prepared for that. I've already waited this long, I'd like to not wait longer getting this started. I'm longing for it that it has brought me to tears sometimes. I believe maybe I'm longing for it even more now because I have a support system (my husband for starters) and I have even more encouragement and motivation than I did back then. But it's not just about my kids and being a role model in that aspect, it's me. I want to do this for me! I want to do something for me now. I'm so sorry for such a long post. I thank anyone who has come this far reading. I just really needed to get this off my chest, and I thought well who better than a forum full of actors who may possibly have been in my shoes in one form or another, who maybe felt/feels how I'm feeling? Or, I don't know, maybe this is just my own unique situation lol. By the way, I do feel a bit better getting this off my chest and out of the bottle that I bottled this up in. I know it's a lot. Thank you all for bearing with me. :)
Im almost at my 2 year mark come the end of February. I've been working as the assistant to the animation agent and will move up to junior agent of the video game division come my anniversary. Before, I'd been working 3 years at an on camera agency also as an assistant. I am writing this to see if anyone has any questions or needs any sort of advice in their careers or prospects as a voice over artist. Our agency reps about 200 people at the moment solely in the VO field. We work primarily in the animation, commercial and video game departments. Some work we do in audio books or narration. Anime as well. We rep some pretty notable people in the VO field in the divisions I've mentioned above, as well as a few name on camera actors. I'm here to help and advise or give you some insght into my job. I'll open it up to you to ask me what you would like. Cheers! -P
I’m currently ISO of voice actors for a sims 4 voice over series I’m working on. I’m looking for a female and two male lead actors. You will be voicing young adults with sarcastic/goofy personalities. Please pm me for more details if interested!!
Hello guys! I’m new to this but I got picked up for a streaming service (excited but nervous as hell) and we’ll I want to bring on some actors for a show I created, as supporting or background cast to give people a chance that I got. It’s a couple of roles where you play comedic mercenaries kinda like a Saturday morning cartoon but more adult, if anyone is interested and needs more information, feel free to message me!
Hello guys! I’m new to this but I got picked up for a streaming service (excited but nervous as hell) and we’ll I want to bring on some actors for a show I created, as supporting or background cast to give people a chance that I got. Looking for men 18-35 who can play comedic mercenaries kinda like a Saturday morning cartoon but more adult, if anyone is interested and needs more information, feel free to message me! It pays 15k for supporting/background characters and that’s what is needed, can you handle violence, nudity, drugs, adult humor because it is a mature show that got picked up on hbo?
Hi, so I’ve decided that I want to become an actor and I was recently looking at some college/university programs I can apply to. I do want to save some money so I was thinking of starting at a community college first, then transferring to one of the bigger schools in the city. Do you guys know of any good community colleges for acting in Toronto? Thanks
I will become a must-join in a couple of days and I'm trying to see what my options are for finding work once I have to join the union (not being able to do non-union work at that point). I do work with a talent agency and get union projects through them, but I feel there's not enough of them. Is there any place out there that posts projects for SAG-AFTRA work? Kinda like a Voices.com or something for SAG-AFTRA union members? Or do I have to exclusively rely on the agency? Thank you all for your help.
Hello! Cut a professional commercial demo about a year ago, and sort of got lazy as I'm now doing Rigging Electric in the film union. Decided to get serious for 2022 and landed my very first audition for a reputable agency in Atlanta. It's a radio spot for REI! Any tips? Vocal warm-ups etc? I took a few classes at The Alliance Theatre but other than that this will be mt very first audition. Love this sub reddit. Long time listener, first time caller here
What is the person that decides whether actors join the agency or not?
Did anyone else do the talent link thats sending out yesterday? And if so how are you feeling about your chances!
I am extremely interested to hear all of the current actors' perspectives in each state on how they feel about their pursuit of acting there. I'm planning to move from Chicago to one of these states 5 months from now and I'm having a hard time finding current information about the overall scene of each place. I've been doing improv/going to a lot of shows in Chicago for the past 6 months and its been mostly depressing/somewhat vacant feeling. I just don't feel like it's a good time in history to be in it. I'm not even sure where you would start to do any camera acting here besides taking classes, so moving to these different states seem highly attractive. I do have one main question though! Does New Mexico offer opportunities for actors, or is all of the casting done from LA/Atlanta anyway?
Hello! I’m an actor, I trained at a university in the Midwest, I moved to New York at the end of last year, and I have no idea what to do or who to talk to or how to get started... I mean they teach you a ton at school but none of the stuff that will actually get you in the room or even pointed in the general direction of the room. So this is just a really broad question, what do I do now that I’m here? What is the first baby step? All advice welcome! Thank you
I've noticed this across many actors, ages, etc of actors who flair their nostrils during intense scenes. It happens far too often for it to be a coincidence. I'm curious what's the explanation behind it because personally I've never seen anyone do that in real life in times of grief but it seems to be something that's taught to actors.
here are the things i’ve notes myself: monolog voice bodily movement (face+body)
I need some lines read for a video project, $25 payrate, but I'm willing to negotiate a price. Would love to hear your previous work if any. No experience is necessary.
London is super expensive, and most working actors are working in hospitality, or gig work (eg Uber, DoorDash, etc). I don't have a guarantor (my parents are high earners and even own their own flats in London but they have turned up at my house without asking before and don't support LGBTQ people, so that seems like a bad idea to give them my address lol or stay at their flat, my relationship w my dad has been a bit better lately but still hesitant esp re mum in case she tries to steal medication or turn up w/o permission as she's done both before; my other relatives are either in school or on disability). Depending on if I have my job at the time, I could use that as proof of income to rent a room in a shared house with other creative ppl (i.e. not just complete random strangers). But landlords in London will often move ppl on after 6-12 mos to get more rent. Also depends on if I have my job (I'm potentially applying to RCS this year and then moving to London after, which means I wouldn't have a job, although I would be trying to do freelance on the side/before drama school, but if I didn't get an RCS offer then I'd have my job still). But either way, likely after 12 mos anyway I'd have to move with random strangers. Last place I rented w strangers well unfortunately it was very noisy and overcrowded all the time, and it seems like it would be difficult to do a self tape in that kind of environment? I'd try to meet the people and explain to them my line of work but a lot of the time the people in these kinds of places are transient or you can't get in contact with them before renting because the landlord won't give their details. TL;DR London actors, do you find that most things are self-tape nowadays? And if so, how do you do self-tapes in noisy shared houses (where most actors in London are)?
Hey guys, I have chronic and paralyzing social anxiety and very low self esteem. Now that that's out of the way, I've been researching ways to combat that and found that acting or improv can help a tremendous deal to people getting out of their shells and be assertive, healthy and quick on their feet and their mind. Also, I have some lofty ambitions, and want to direct a short film, so I want to be able to talk to and direct actors, on top of just talking/recruiting the crew, carrying myself well on set (I've crewed on sets before). I am wondering what programs (in-person only and NYC) I can sign up for to get a handle of my anxiety. I've been reading up on different schools and "methods." For some reason, Stella Adler is calling to me, I like the holistic emphasis it espouses on paper about the actor having to take care of themselves at all times. At the same time, it is very theatre heavy and seems to focus mainly on being the character rather than being yourself. I am a die hard researcher and history fan though, so that's a plus for Stella Adler. I think Adler's focus on script analysis is also key because I am approaching acting in a multidisciplinary way. I am interested in their spring introductory programs: [here](https://www.stellaadler.com/classes/workshops/) I am wondering if the price tag of $2000 for the program is fair? I definitely need voice work. I think that is the area I will need the most help and development as well as improv skills. The only other "technique" based schools I can think of that's popular and open are the Meisner based ones. I am not sure which ones are good and which ones are worth the tuition, but they do seem to emphasize being your natural spontaneous self. Any opinions on Meisner? I am not sure about Strasberg or any of the method schools. I have a lot of trauma, maybe that can help me, maybe it won't, but I did take a few acting lessons. One of my acting teachers mentioned that affective memory is unreliable and can change over time. Also, I prefer not driving myself insane. I am neurotic enough already. Finally, I heard Improv can help with social anxiety. I understand it is not quite acting? But you can improv a whole character and scene from nothing? I'm imaging it would help someone think on their feet and adapt to any kind of interaction and help develop thicker skin (though I'm sure actors are trained to have very thick skin). The only one that seems to have regular open classes is the PIT? and maybe the Magnet? The Magnet seems to run out of space quick though. I wrote a lot but I am not sure where else to ask. Anyone able to chime in? Maybe recommend a different sub to ask this question in?
Hi friends - I'm an actor in NYC who's done plenty of student films, short films, etc and a handful of TV co star roles but am looking to work in commercials more often, and I know that improv is essential for booking these jobs. Since UCB is online only at the moment, what is the best improv school that currently offers in person classes? I've taken a handful of classes at the Magnet Theater and had fun but am looking to complete a full program (ie. 101 - 401) somewhere and while of course I want to learn, I'm also wondering what school would look best on a resume to commercial agents. Thanks in advance!
To go into more detail I would like to be a talent agent/manager (not sure what the right term might be), but I am unsure of how to go about this. I have done some research online, but I wanna hear from a talent agent/manager themself or a actor that has worked with an agent or anything like that. Thank you for any help.
Bear with me here. I’m a young actor (fifteen, if that’s young). And I study my favorite actors in movies to help me improve. But is it bad to spend hours watching movies to get better at acting? It sounds like something I should do. But it’s just so fun it feels like a waste of time.
So our second day of filming is tonight and I am having this deep sinking gut feeling that I need to get out of this. It has been the most unprofessional experience of my life. Our second day of shooting is today and I am sick to my stomach, I just really would rather stick my hand in a toaster than go through another day of filming. How do I get out of this without completely ruining my reputation? Should I just go through with it? I can go back and explain the details later but just wanted a quick answer since my call time is 6pm today. Please help ​ ​ EDIT : So I got way more responses than I was expecting, thank you so much everyone for the advice and giving me the courage to speak up for myself as an actor and also walk away when I wasn't actually listened to. To answer some questions, \-It isn't a student film, nor was I being payed. The director is in his 30s, I only accepted the job because I had just moved out to LA (I was cast back in September) and I like to stick to my commitments, I also figured it was a way to meet people and make connections. Now that I have an agent I am only auditioning and working on paying gigs. \-This is not sag, nor was my agent involved. \-I had messaged him about my concern about never having a talk about fight choreo or intimacy directing. I told him I didn't think it was a good idea to go through with filming, and then he proceeded to beg me not to quick, and how I "can't do this to him" He agreed to take out the intimacy scene but then argued with me that there was no need for fight choreo since all he wanted me to do was shoot a gun and hit the other actor with a baseball bat. \-I still went (I know, stupid) and I realized when I got there that he never told us a specific wrap time was because he just expected us to be there until he said we could go, so I pulled him aside and told him that what he was doing was extremely unprofessional and disrespectful of everyone's time. \-This morning I messaged him a long message basically saying that I felt extremely disrespected as an actor and that my input and fear for my own safety was not being genuinely listened to. And then I turned off my phone and I haven't looked at his response... ​ ​ ALSO! Some good news, my first feature just got picked up for distro today! First it's getting submitted to festivals and then after that it comes out in October! So excited to see myself on a big screen.
Maybe it's because I have a stage background, but I've always felt that running lines with your scene partner/partners was very important before you actually start filming, as it allows you not just to get into the feeling of your character and scene, but to also get a feeling of how the other actor will be and what their character will be bringing. But in the last few weeks, I've had conversations with several actors who have told me they really don't like running lines beforehand, because for them, "it removes the ability to 'be in the moment' and can affect the spontaneity and natural feel of the scene." That seems strange to me, and I don't really understand it. But I 100% believe in learning from everyone and anyone. But what do other actors and those with probably a lot more experience than me feel about that? What is your preferred method of preparing/directing? Of course, there is no one way for everyone, and different professionals have their prefered methods, but I'm just looking to get some general feedback from others to see if I can get a better understanding of what people find works for them, and why. Very interested to hear others opinions on this. Thanks in advance for your thoughts and feedback. :)
since i was a child, I have always been inspired by acting. Acting is my favorite thing to do in life! But at 16 years old I decided to take it serious and maybe It could be my lifetime job! However I do not know where to start from or who to talk to. And in my country there is no acting schools or anything so how am I going to reach Hollywood from far away? My Pms are always open if you want to talk.
as a beginner i think this is the hardest part, to start somewhere. Do you guys know any good casting agents or companies who are looking for actors ?
Hello all, I am a 21 year old male who lives in england and for the past 4-5 years I’ve been seriously considering acting as a profession. I believe I have a natural talent for it and I just love good stories and movies. It’s also become my last option so I’ve decided to take it seriously and actually start my journey to becoming an actor. However, after going through the FAQ’s I’m still unsure as to what exactly I need to do and in what order. I would massively appreciate some answers to the questions I will list below. 1) What do I need to do, step by step? In what order would you recommend I do things in? 2) Do I need to join a theatre? If so, how do I actually join one? Just walk in and ask to join or what? I’ve checked the websites of theatres in my city but none of them provide information on how you can join as an actor and take part in plays. 3) Is the theatre enough to learn and improve or will I need to take separate acting lessons? 4) Are there such things as “acting clubs” or something you can join where people help one another with their acting? 5) What movies should I watch to understand what good acting actually looks like? These are my questions for now. A massive thank you in advance to anyone who answers.
I’ve just left my actor training after 3 years and now wanting to get into actual acting for film and TV. When I left my training course they didn’t give us any concrete advice on what the next steps would be, communication became very thin, to the point of almost nothing. Now that I’ve left I’m not sure what the steps to getting represented are, I’ve looked at agencies in London (which is closest to me), I know they are incredibly busy and also hard to get into, but I’m basically just looking for that advice on what can give me the best shot. I managed to get two short films done last year, and I’ve looked at making a home shot showreel with monologues, I’m not sure if that’s good way or not but it’s somewhere to start. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Several of my acting teachers have told me I'm a very honest actor. Is that a good thing? What do they mean?
I'm curious to hear your recommendations on books that have helped you the most in you pursuit of acting knowledge. Is there one book that has helped you the most?
Hello loves! I'm an Atlanta Actor hoping to branch into the LA market and wanted to see which classes/studios/intensives were hosting via zoom or online in general. Thank you all!
I recently completed a 1 year acting for film program. I am seeking advice, guidance and opinions on vague feedback I was given. I was told that my character type/ actresses I should try and emulate are Claudia Cardinale and Audrey Hepburn. I have my opinion of what these actresses signify but I am interested to know what these women mean to you. For example a friend of mine was told that she was a 'Meryl Streep' type - from that I think it is meant that she is a phenomenal character actress with great range and ability. That she would need work on mastering different accents and character types of different ages to be able to develop her potential. Unfortunately Claudia Cardinale and Audrey Hepburn are not that familiar to me and that is why I am asking for your opinion on what this type is and what I would need to do. Thanks in advance for your help.
edit: just read the faq and things… im still worried about how to better my chances getting booked as a teen actor. tips? im an aspiring actor who doesn’t really know how to book auditions or how to find acting jobs. im in high school and im graduating soon. i dont have an agent so networking and advertising myself is kinda hard! any tips for my situation?
Who are some actors who came in and got super big off of one performance only to fade into obscurity?
Whether it’s celebrities, peers, or even yourselves. Looking for some new year inspiration!
Just something that came to mind. Me personally I’d go with Hayden Christensen in the Star Wars prequels. He can look really good when he isn’t forced to say dialogue about love, sand or hate. My two favourite examples of this are when he’s glaring at Obi Wan during their duel and when he doesn’t say anything to the younglings, he just stands there and activates his lightsaber. Really good stuff. Another one if heard of is the most recent Doctor in Doctor who. Apparently she’s a good actor but the scripts and stories she’s been given are terrible by Who standards. I personally wouldn’t mind a female doctor since I loved the Sarah Jane adventures but I guess we’ll have to wait for a better one. Well those were my opinions, what about the rest of you?
Heya, so im a voice actress working freelance at age 19 from the UK, I've been working since Jan 2020 and have been luckily quite sucessful in my short time in the industry. This client struck me as odd and i just wanted to get opinions on the situation. So, i was hired by someone \[client\] who i figured out was purchasing voice overs for advertisements of the game AFK Arena, a game i recognised quickly because i used to play it obsessively. I asked them about it and they confirmed.Today i asked the client if they could share their company name so i can include them on my portfolio and they said they're not allowed to publicly share it. Now im a bit suspicious because anyone related to the advertising side of a game would be a public company, surely. What do you guys think? Im really not sure what this situation is and would love opinions from more seasoned VAs! \[EDIT for spelling error :( \]
I know it’s controversial (I saw the last post about acting drunk) but some people use cannabis medicinally..
I'm an actor currently in the southeast market who wants an agent. I'm classically trained and I finished my drama program in 2019. I've been in a couple of good plays which I can put on my resume and quite frankly a couple of very bad student films which I will not list on my resume. I have professional headshots but no reel. Coming out of school during the time I did was just bad timing with Covid coming in 2020 and still here in 2021. I just haven't been able to find suitable work. Since I have no reel, I was thinking about doing an audition reel and sending it out to agencies. I know of other artists who've been signed with this method. I know it's not a reel from a production, but I feel like showing them something is better than just sending in a headshot. They wouldn't kow if I could act or not if I just sent in my pictures. I was thinking about a self taped monologue or a scene ran with a reader. Are these good options? I don't have much experience now, but I figure being well trained and having done some work will help me get signed.
So with Equity's new open admission standards, I went from 10 EMC points to union-eligible. I see a lot of great job postings for equity actors, but wouldn't want to join without a job lined up. Im wondering, should I specify in submissions that I'll readily join the union if cast? Thanks for your input reddit!
My dream is to be in the entertainment industry, but I don't have the means. I going to be 18 soon, and I want to start my career somewhere; but I live in a small town about 1000 miles away from California. I also don't have the financial means to make such a big move either. I have the motivation, but where do I begin?

So I’m less than a week away from moving to a new city to have a fresh start, as well as to branch out to a bigger market with more opportunities as an actor and performer. While I am in no extreme rush to sign with any sort of representation as soon as my plane lands or anything like that, I would like to at least get active as quickly as possible. My big worry right now is that I have no reel for getting started in film considering my background is entirely theatre and live comedy. My roommates and I are all writers as well, writing for comedy teams, play competitions, and even a fully produced play at the university we went to, and I’ve heard all the advice about just filming your own material to get started with a reel, but I have no real concept of how that looks, or even what that *looks like* (Self tapes of original monologues, original sketches, scenes, etc). Actors who’s first reel included original material, what was that like??
I registered for classes at improvLA but it just got cancelled. I have never taken an improv class before and this would be my first time doing improv. I’m looking for classes that are best for beginner actors that would help with my anxiety. I’ve heard about Second City, UCB, and groundlings but I’m not sure which is best to go for. I feel like there’s already ppl there with experience and I’m just starting out. My plan at first was to gain experience before taking any prestigious classes. So I’m wondering how their intro classes are and what was your experience with them or any of the other classes that you’ve took?
Can I make it as an actor outside major film markets like Atlanta, Los Angeles, and New York? I've always worried about this but I do cover the Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Western New York markets. Which does help calm my nerves but, I know there are famous actors who've made in outside those cities, but can I actually make it outside those those three major markets? Or almost anywhere in the U.S?
Hey guys, ​ There's so many books on how to be an Actor/Artist. ​ But there aren't many on An Actors rights, or what's appropriate in the entertainment industry business. ​ Example what is considered a "day" in hours. ​ What is your right as an Actor Etc.. ​ If anyone have any websites or books or youtube channels I would be greatlyyyy appreciative!
Hi there, I'm sorry this question gets asked a lot here but I'm just feeling very stuck and would appreciate some advice. (Happy New Year!) I graduated college in June 2021 with a degree in graphic design and I've built up a good career that I can fall back on. However, I want to focus on acting now. Design is very draining to me but I'm glad I studied it because it gave me a lot of skills/tools to work as an artist. I dabbled in acting when I was younger and I believe I have potential. I just need to take this seriously: create a body of work and train more. Since graduating, I've been taking classes to figure out my craft (i.e., acting, improv, sketch comedy writing) — whatever's available in-person here in Seattle or online in other cities. **However, I still live at home with my parents. In fact, I've lived here all my life, even throughout college. And I wonder if it's holding me back.** * The pros: I'm definitely saving money, I have a car to use, and I have lots of space to create. * The cons: I don't have much privacy, I can't be my true self, my relationship with my parents is sadly getting estranged, I have three rowdy dogs, and it's a bit far (40+ minute drive) from Central Seattle where everything is. **Although I have resources living at home, I feel stuck in my shell.** I'm also diagnosed with ADHD so being comfortable at home, especially since COVID, has made me unproductive and very self-sabotaging. My parents also don't understand boundaries so it's hard to fully participate in online classes and I feel embarrassed to let loose. And since driving is a bit inconvenient to attend improv nights, open mics, and events — I feel pressured to come home early even though my parents don't mind. I just feel ashamed/awkward coming home late. I still feel like a child at 22. I'm making more money starting next month so **I wonder if I should move into my own place here in Seattle?** It's going to be a huge dent to my wallet but I'll have my own place to be more productive and be much closer to things. Acting is not huge here but maybe it'll be easier to start here. However, I seriously want to get out of Seattle and start over, as cliche/naive as that sounds. **I just hate the person I am here. I'm wondering if I should tough it out until September?** I'd want to save up and move to LA or NYC but I know finding a place is tough — I have good credit but no rental history. I also probably won't be that experienced as an actor by then. I'm grateful to hear any advice or experiences. Thank you for reading!
Hi, I am incredibly new to projecting myself out there on the internet as an actor, and after reading the sidebar of the subreddit, I decided backstage would be a good place to start. I am a fairly attractive athletic 5'10 young adult. When should I expect to start hearing from people? Am I overzealous in my attitude? ​ Any advice would be great thanks everyone so much.
Weeee, you found me!
I'm your buddy Bottie, I was hiding behind the scenes, but now that you've found me I'd be happy to tell you what I'm doing.
