Why, oh why, do we act...how many times were you (and still are) asked this question... Acting...there is a mystic nature to it. We feel it, we channel it even. But most of the time, there are little logical, or tangible, ways of explaining it, showing it, and even understanding it.I knew I was an actor when I was five…

Good tidings, players!This may be a timely post, since the industry has slowed down due to holidays, uncertainty, and big changes happening across the board.

Tilly is an AI-generated actress - expressive and cinematic - but still shaped by human creativity: a writer, a director, an AI artist behind the scenes. One key technique is "acting for driving videos" - where you record your own facial performance to guide the AI. Your expressions, tone, and movement bring realism to…

Fellow actors, a quick reminder…If we want real change for working performers, we have to lift our voices off the stage and onto Capitol Hill.

This is a topic that I think is not covered enough. This is something all creatives experience. Actors, writers, directors, artists, et al.
