Hello! I'm a newer voice actor/audiobook narrator and I have been working as a full-time freelancer for the last few months.

Was wondering if anyone knew of any schools that teach the Meisner method in San Antonio, TX. I found one in austin but it's to much for me to commute every week. Also, if no schools are available, are there any Meisner trained actors who could meet with others interested in learning the technique and sharing/pooling o…

I’m 26 years old and I have never once acted or attempted to act or auditioned for anything, but I sometimes act out scenes at home by myself and I think I am good at it. I can bring my real feelings into whatever I am trying to act out and make it very real to the point where I almost feel like it’s real to me in that…

Day in and day out I watch new voice actors underestimate the element of actual ACTING in the craft, especially in commercial reads. You can never forget that there needs to be a reason why a client would pay you to use your voice- you need to develop a skill that exceeds simply good tone and understandability. Even in…

Back in 2011, an old friend recorded around 5 minutes of footage of a fan character as she was LARP-ing (live action role play) with another friend. Few years later, I turned the character into an original character for my game projects and she didn't mind since my version was far different. Since she's older and canno…

I did the damn thing. I got on set today for the first feature film that I've booked. I got to say lines to a wonderful actress. I got dolled up. I ate some really good food.

Here’s my story: I have a middling career in medicine, and much like Ken Jeong, I’m over it, I’d like to act full time. The worst day on set has to be better than most days in a hospital, but it pays the bills. Unlike Ken Jeong, I’m not a doctor with a doctor wife so I don’t have tons of extra cash for a safety net.

For film/TV acting which school would be the best? What are the greatest differences between the two schools? I'm currently leaning toward Groundlings due to the class availability. (I'm an 18-year-old aspiring actor and am planning to take these classes in tandem with Meisner training.)

Not sure if this is an urban legend but I was told casting has the code of NPE - basically if an actress comes in, kicks ass, does an excellent job with the material, the interpretation of the material, and then you still can't cast her. and you wind up casting the 'talking model' - does this break your heart? ​…
