How does recording work for live zoom sessions?

When a client wants to do a live session over zoom/skype/discord/etc how does the audio usually get captured? I'm guessing the client doesn't record it on their end because the sound quality can't always be trusted, right? Does the actor just hit record on...

Tiktok acting

Hello everyone! I’ve been dreaming of being an actress my whole life. I have some experience (mostly as an extra) and was even rep by a new agency a short while ago, but COVID happened and all the non-unions were cut off from the agency. It’s hard as you...

Advocate for yourself. Always.

Just leaving a non-union commercial set that was, perhaps, the most unprofessional set I’ve ever been on. Granted, the client is a HUGE brand, so it was extra shocking. A group of us were cast as Principal actors (which usually guarantees usage $$). In the...

My fellow actors, I got a question.

# Do CD's still want a printed headshot and resume ? This morning, my printer has finally given up on me (died, not worth fixing) and I am not sure if I should purchase another one. I only kept the printer around for family photos, and the "just in case" a CD...

Disappointed in my own performance in a final product; anything I can do?

Hiya folks, I received a final product back from a client, and it was a project where two voice actors switched back and forth doing an explainer. The other actor's performance and audio quality are MUCH stronger than mine. At the very least, I wish I could...

My voice sounds like a child?

My voice acting isn't that special, it's mainly for myself- a recent adaption of a show I like had a really bad voice actor for my favorite character, so I thought I'd dub over their lines myself. Problem is, my voice sounds like a child, and the character is...
