Hey there! We're a few game dev students in Stockholm, Sweden, looking to find a voice actor to narrate a few cutscene sequences for our current project. The game wont be sold, and is for internal usage of the school only. As we're only students, our budged isn't very high and we're therefore looking mostly for people…

I posted here about a month or so ago about some relationship problems with my manager and how he does things, specifically eyeing to break things off.

Hey there! Brand new to this world, and wondering what the hell a SAG Voucher actually is for background actor work. Is it just a paystub that you'd get from a payroll company? Is it a special form of some kind that gets filled out and given to you in addition to a paystub? I see a lot of conflicting information, sayin…

Long story short. I got tired of not getting the roles I wanted so like any actor you write. I worked with production companies for free for 2.5 years on the last moments. So I already put my script through a script doctor, handmade the costume, got it created. Have photographic proofs of my tv streaming show with phot…

so, I'm not quite a voice actor, but I did just get started doing youtube let's plays and something I noticed is how I just "puff" out any breath I have after finishing a sentence or certain words. so for instance instead of hearing me say "can", it'd be "can-\*breath\*ahhh", or "this won't happen" becomes "this won't…

Hi guys, I was wondering if someone can provide any insight. My bf is 31 years old and loves acting .

I’m in rehearsals for a play and AEA requires us to take a Covid test 3 times per week. Each day when we arrive at the theatre, the SM takes our temperature and asks if we’ve had any cold or flu symptoms. Yesterday, I foolishly admitted to having a tickle in my throat and was immediately sent home—even though I had a n…

In my country there are several websites that posts work for actors, for commercials, film and TV but I don't think they are legit since sometimes I see Netflix is looking for actors. I want to find auditions/work another way. Do any of you guys know how to get/find auditions in different ways?

Dear Friends, I know this is a sub for actors alone, but I feel this is the best place to ask this question. I am planning a fantasy web series, based on Greek mythology, for my YouTube channel.

I'm not one to usually post the "how do I audition for this show?" threads, but because this usually casts publicly, I'd thought I'd ask here: Has the new Power Rangers series started casting yet?

I keep thinking of Elizabeth Berkeley in Showgirls how that movie ruined her career for a long time because critics and audiences hated her acting. But in her defense, she was only listening to what the director was telling her to do. His career wasn't ruined from Showgirls. So, shouldn't the director be responsible fo…

Good evening all. I’ve got a meeting with an award winning producer next week, it isn’t to talk about acting as such.

Hi, I wasn’t sure if this was the right place to post this question but I’ve noticed a couple of my favorite voice actors have a similar way of sounding out certain words and wondered if there was a name for it.
