why are you an actor?

I’m curious because my fuel for acting is something that’s changed so dramatically since starting college, graduating 2 yrs ago and then again during covid lockdown. What’s beyond “I just love it :)” like why though? Or “I love storytelling”, again why? I’ve...

Are social media accounts used by actors affecting how an audience views their acting range?

I remember trying to see a film with Toby Maguire in it after the Spider-Man trilogy and it felt like I couldn’t let go of the fact that that’s Spider-Man and not the character Maguire was playing. For some reason I feel like the same phenomenon is happening...

Please can someone offer some advice or an opinion? My acting anxiety is so bad that it's hindered my ability to act to the best of my ability. I feel so lost, confused and hopeless and don't know whether or not to move on.

So in a nutshell I have a decent boutique/mid-level agent but I'm not getting self tape requests/auditions for scripted TV/film. Each day it gets to 6pm when the offices close, I check my emails and there's nothing. It makes me feel so low and like I have no...

On adult content

I saw a quote on Twitter in regards to BDSM erotica that I agree with (being in that lifestyle). Not verbatim but they said something along the lines of “that this is a form a theatre, a different style of actors, and a more layered form of sex”. I’ve come...

I made a controversial decisions but I think it’s the best choice: said no to great agent and signed with more simple agent

I am used to self-represent myself and work full time as a host and actor thanks to that. However, I got no roles from confidential breakdowns (which I have access to) for the past year, even though I booked a good amount of union and paid non union work on...

A director made the most wildly unprofessional comment about my performance in front of the entire crew

I'm currently on set shooting a series which will remain nameless, and it's set up weirdly where multiple cameras are recording and getting multiple pieces of coverage simultaneously to save time. This makes it tricky to know which camera to play to and how...
