Hello fellow actors I have a question regarding reels. So I am fairly new to this and don't really have a legit reel yet. I did a decently size project but I have to wait for it to come back so for now I am using a self made demo reel with self tapes etc. Now my questions is what would get me more auditions? Would havi…

We all know that conflict is what creates drama. But sometimes, it's hard to find conflict in certain scenes. I've read that there's conflict in every scene. But the problem is that it's hard to find conflict in EVERY scene. Isn't conflict when two character's objectives contrast each other? Isn't it when one character…

Hi everyone! I recently joined an acting class, and my scene partner and I have been assigned the play Gruesome Playground Injuries to work on. I’ll be playing the role of Doug. My teacher suggested we work on the Zamboni scene at the end of the play. But a few questions came up for me re: the ethics of me playing Doug…

This isn't related to the craft of acting, but it's a part of my own experiences with other actors and students of acting. For a large majority of my time as a student actor (I'm a 22 year-old male in my senior year of college), I've never felt like I have truly socially belonged in my university's theatre department,…

Hello! I am considering moving to Canada. I am from the UK and have a pretty solid theatre CV (mostly tours) with a few shorts in there, went to one of the "big drama schools" in the UK- but film/TV is seriously lacking. I'm alright with this, as i'm a bit of a classical theatre nut who has no real desire to be a big s…

I want to be a film actor but I am also genderfluid (born female) and my dream is to be able to play both female and male roles, you know. I'm going to get top surgery as I intended (been wanting it for years) and if I need a breast for female roles I thought the director could use prosthetics. I mean, it's feasible, r…

I built an app that searches actors access in my region once a minute and texts me a link to the latest breakdown when it finds a new one. I have to use a third party system that costs but I think it’s worth it for me at least. Would you be interested in it? [View Poll](https://www.reddit.com/poll/10fblaq)

Is this place legit curious to see if anybody’s heard of them. The executive director name is Rodger rose he said he used to work for elite.

Is there a consensus on the best way to label reel clips? For example, should I level them something like: "Dramatic Clip 1", "Dramatic Clip 2", "Comedic Clip 1" etc?

I feel like people who are not an actor or even working in the field don’t really understand how hard it is to even get work , get a role, be a part of a project.

I'm an outsider to filmmaking and aspiring screenwriter. I've made couple of short films with friends and I was a bystander in film sets. I want to know the sensibilities of working with actors.

Hey all! I'm looking for a class in LA (or elsewhere with an online option) that isn't technique-based.

As an actor, how flexible is it in terms of remembering your lines. I’m sure it depends on what film it is. But on average I suppose is the best wording. Like for example, is it a no no if you say something like “I’ll try my best” instead of “i will do my best”.
