Not starting young enough

It seems like most major actors got their first roles when they were between the ages of 14-18. And most celebrities got famous at a similar age. I am 20 now and am feeling like I have missed the chance to start my acting career. I know I could get some...

Agent wasted my time just not to sign me

This is a Sag-Aftra agency … I was on the phone with the agent for 1 hour and 30 minutes and he basically was telling me their “moto” of their agency and educating me about the industry (some information that I already knew, and some I didn’t) He then looked...

I embarrassed myself

So, I performed two monologues in front of my whole class and I was so nervous that my mouth got dry and I had terrible diction. I was also kind of lightheaded on stage for some reason, and I wasn’t even looking at the audience. How can I come back from this?...

Is it worth starting voice acting if AI is going to take most of the jobs?

I don't have any real experience in VO so I want to pay for training and eventually have a demo made. I'm just not sure if it's worth spending $2000+ to get into the field only to find no work. AI is already good enough now that it's starting to take away the...

Remembering lines?

I've worked as a voice actor a lot where the text is always in front of you. I've done short scenes where the dialogue is minimal and it's mostly about reacting (especially in classes or in very small parts I've done on TV). My question is, how do you go...

Stage names! What is it good for?

I'm a really young actor looking to get in the industry, but I'm feeling like a fish outta water with all the terminology and etiquette. Are there any inherent advantages for using stage names? I like the idea, but I feel like it may prove unnecessary.

Although I know what a slate is, I'm wondering if someone can explain what the Actors Access Slates are and how they might be helpful. Is it worth the extra cost?

What popular actors do you think are genuinely bad/untalented when it comes to their craft?

For me, it's Emma Roberts. I genuinely think she's a terrible actor and plays the same person in every single thing I've seen her in. What are your unpopular opinions?
