    Thoughts on Skillshare/ Masterclass VO courses?

    I've gotten a handful of paid gigs over the years hobbying around, but I'm plunging head-first into it this summer. I'm a big believer in the "forever student" mindset, so I'd love a regular lesson schedule to keep skill sharp. Unfortunately, I'm priced out...

    Talent Agency- Introductory email?

    Am I too poor to ever become an actor?

    Laurette Taylor on "The Quality Most Needed"

    Shoutout to /u/cryoncue for referring to this often enough to make me track it down. Some context: *this was written in 1914*. Don't forget that as you read. Some of the references and cultural things won't land as intended, but this is a full eight years...

    Agencies (Los Angeles)

    What's up! ​ Feel free to DM me if you'd prefer that over commenting. I'm just trying to get some intel on some of the agencies that I've had meetings with recently since I'm shopping around. I find it's hard to know as an actor what they're like to...

    I got a part! (but have no training)

    I stumbled into having a small role in a local film (two minutes of screen time and two short lines.) I am not an actor and haven't done anything like this since school plays. Is there anything I should know about being on camera or acting in general? Any...
