I did a mediocre audition for a powerful CD- will I ever be called in again?

I did an okay audition, not good, but okay. I learned it quickly and taped it quickly and sent it off, since I was in a time crunch. Do they immediately peg me as a mediocre actor, and never want to see work again?

This is my biggest issue!! I put so much stress and energy into saying a basic phrase “correctly,” or a certain bodily movement which in turns leaves my performance with less depth and emotion. I know how to read the script and think about what brought my...

Want to leave manager, but contract doesn’t specify I can—is it worth trying?

Thoughts on Dan Fogler?

I’ve seen him in exactly three movies: Balls of Fury, and the first and third Fantastic Beasts movies. Despite all of those films being just meh, I really enjoyed Dans performance in all three. I find his comedic timing very funny and natural. It makes me...
