So, I'm fully prepared for the answer to this to be "go to therapy", I just wanted to see if anyone here had any advice first. I went to do my acting degree in Sept 2016. I started off the year as probably one of the bottom of the class in terms of skill, but I worked hard and learned so much that by the end of the yea…

I need a voice actor that can do a convincing Gordan Ramsay impression or close to it. I'm willing to pay $30 for 3 short rants that go on for 10 secs. This part does not have a script, so you can improvise the lines. You can send your audition using the info below. Email: [theosavageart@gmail.com](mailto:theosavageart…

It’s damn near impossible to ignore the fact that the offspring of the wealthy dominate this industry, nowadays.

Hey y’all! Aside from finishing the movie just now, I saw a sneak peak of behind the scenes with the actors/crew yesterday and I heard (I think the director said this?

I'm a super new actor but I was cast in a community theater production recently which is very exciting! The play leans more comedic and as we've started rehearsals my director has been talking about taking a very slapstick route with one of my characters. I'm excited to stretch and try something new but physical comedy…

I was told in film school that, as a director you ought to give the actor direction between every take. Do you find this helpful or just irritating? Is this what you usually get when dealing with directors or are they more laid back? I'd love to hear anyone's perspective because, as someone who tends to over direct, I…

I got an audition for a series regular role. I submitted yesterday through my agent. It is shooting this April. If I got a callback when should I expect one?

Do that first audition. Get the microphone you've been looking at for a while. Take action. You can't get anywhere if you don't attempt to put yourself out there. You got this and you've got a whole community here to support you when you need it. It may be scary or nerve-wracking, but in the end it will be so worth it.…
