    How to make friends with other voice actors?

    This might be a bit pathetic to ask but ever since graduating high school I’ve struggled to make friends. I’ve been in the voice acting community for years but never really felt connected within it. What do voice actors like to do with each other?

    What are your "pet peeves" regarding self-tapes?

    I'm casting a small project. I'm going to be requesting self-tapes from a few actors for the first time. I thought it would be a good idea to ask the acting community on here what things casting does that annoy them when requesting self-tapes so I don't do...

    I'm interested in getting professional training to become a better actor, even though my teacher at my University said that I already have training, which I believe the training I've had are just drops in the bucket; I really haven't had time to sharpen and...

    cliquey acting community in atlanta

    Hey, I'm a local actor in atlanta and I've noticed the acting community in town is super cliquey and not inclusive? Is this normal? It seems like everyone worships Drama inc. I mean they are ok, but not amazing. It doesn't seem like a very tolerant or...
