Blurry actors access thumbnail

Hey guys! So I’m trying to add new pictures to my account but the thumbnail isn’t as clear as the actual picture. When I click on the headshot and it opens up, it looks great though. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

They are really inspirational and there are so many things I could learn from them, but how do I also not feel as intimidated around them and worry that I can't catch up during rehearsals?

Why are the paths to becoming a professional voice actor so limited?

If you want any real professional work you have to go through an agency, so if you’re starting out that leaves you with ccc, acx, fiver which is apparently looked down upon by some agents, and some pay to play sites. I wish there were more options for open...

What deems someone a ‘professional actor?’

I’ve seen people, both in and out of the arts, define professionals differently. My mother says I’d be a professional if it was my main source of income. I always assumed that a professional was someone who was trained and/or has no issue knowing what to do...

Celebration - First audition opportunity for a Supporting Role!

I've been a long time lurker and have been acting since 2012 down in Australia. This board has been one of the few place that has kept my head in the game. Australia is a very, very small market, with large barriers to auditioning for a tiny amount of roles...

My very first "acting" role

I have never gone to film school. The only education I have received in acting was way back in high school in drama class which pretty much consisted of goofing off. I have always wanted to see what it's like on a real movie set and lucked out as a major...

when Actor A is way more famous and successful than Actor B

I'm not in the business myself, but I've often wondered why a reasonably well-known actor A reaches a certain respectable level of fame, but doesn't get to the point of starring in big-budget movies. I often wonder why Actor A never gets cast in those spots...
