Can Actors Follow Up with Casting Directors Who Follow Them Online?

The digital age is throwing us for some new loops, but I wanted to know if there is any way I could ask a casting director for feedback on an audition and if I should approach my agent about it or send a brief note myself. Recently, I've had some bigger...

Spotlight Advice for UK actors

I am an actor who never went to drama school and had to build a career from scratch. A huge thing in the UK as an actor is having a spotlight profile. It is extremely difficult to get anywhere without it in terms of Agents and CD (aside from open calls). Many...

I was wondering, would yourecommend aspiring actors to try to start in videogames or to focus on movies? Is it so different that acting in a videogame would not give you contacts in the movie industry? Why no more actors start in videogames? why would you

I was wondering, new stars that had become famous in the last years, and talk about how hard it was, i feel like, since they really had talent, they could have also worked in videogames, before movies. Because i assume there are more actors going for movies...

some casting people are getting straight up disrespectful..

getting 5 scenes to do 9+ pages with a ONE DAY deadline to do it all is absolutely ridiculous. Whatever COVID led to has meant casting throwing as much material as they can against a wall knowing full well they aren't watching more than a scene or two at most...

Thoughts? People who aren’t voice actors getting cast

Personally, as a voice actor myself I can’t help but feel bitter about it. It doesn’t matter if they did well, for fun, or if it’s a small role. That credit or establishing a relationship with the client/studio can mean so much to someone who actually...

Auditioning for female roles as a non-feminine woman. Anyone else relate?

I just finished an audition and I’m feeling really disheartened. I’m a young girl who usually sticks to comedy. Stand up, improv, you name it. Not to toot my own horn but I’m really good at those things too. I’m well known in my area. I occasionally go out of...
