I will stop at nothing to become a professional actor, I'm currently non union, but I am buying…

Hello everyone! I'm an actor and filmmaker and I've been auditioning for voiceover work thru my agency. I have booked commercials as an actor (on camera), but nothing for VO work yet. I get fairly regular auditions from my agency and just want to improve my chances of getting a callback. I've provided a link to a VO au…

Attending a cattle call. There’s one I attend twice a year where you get two minutes, so I do a one minute monologue and usually like 45ish seconds of a song. I have a different cattle call coming up in a week where I only get 90 seconds and can do a song or a monologue. I have a song in mind. Fantastic for my range, a…

Hey there, r/VoiceActing! First time posting here. I am an Arkansas-based filmmaker and am looking for a female voice actor for my Dark Fantasy short film, "Fate's End". A British, Irish, or Scottish accent is preferred. The entire film is around 4 minutes in length and has the cadence of a bedtime story both in terms…

I sometimes describe acting as a kind of madness, but I mean that metaphorically. As actors, we enter a character’s world and allow ourselves to think and react differently. At the same time, we remain aware of the scene, our partner and the camera or audience. For me, the interesting part is that balance: letting go e…

Recently I submitted my first audition tape on Actors Access. After submitting I rewatched my audition tape and tbh hated it but I couldn’t go again because my reader (brother) was really tired. It’s been 4 days since submitting and decided to rewatch it and still hate it. I feel like I threw away a great opportunity f…

Hi all! So I am guessing a lot of us have been watching movies that are more on the dark side of cinema this past week. I watched "Heretic" and Hugh Grant gave an exceptionally creepy performance. I am wondering, what has been a stand out performance you have seen in the horror genre?

Hi all, this week was supposed to be about celebrating Halloween and all things spooky. However, a great among us Sir Patrick Stewart has passed away. In honour of his illustrious career, what was your favourite Stewart role or moment? For me it was the whimsical inner monologue of baby Susie Swanson in Family Guy, a s…

I started acting professionally this year and I am realizing I am a very impatient person. I am also getting pretty burnt out trying to balance a side-hustle, university, and acting. While I am currently performing at a local community theater, what I really want is to be in film. (Yes I know stage acting and film acti…

Hi acting friends, at a bit of a crossroads here. I've been working professionally (90% of my jobs are above union rates) as an actor for about 5 years now. Trouble is, all of my jobs I have slaved away to get myself, either through very VERY rare open calls, relentlessly chasing the development of new works, or the qu…

It’s a self taping class - I’ve been given a personally selected scene based on my look and I’ll have a reader and I’ll be in front of a self tape set up. I’m so exited but also nervous for 2 reasons; I haven’t acted in 13 years! I only ever did theatre. I have never acted in front of a camera before. I know the basics…

Hello people! I have been pursuing voice acting for a little less than a year. I do NOT have the means/funds to invest in a coach right now, so I take it upon myself to try and learn as much as I can on my own. I would like feedback on my choices as an actor on these 4 different spec commercials that I have produced. I…

hello! I’ve been rocking very long hair for a while since that’s what my headshots have. It’s just a blunt cut and I do like it because I like the look of princess like hair but lately I’ve been wanting to get some layers and maybe some curtain bangs. I’m just not sure if it will hinder booking roles. I would of course…

EDIT: Thank you for the advice everyone!! Voiceover is something I truly want to do for the rest of my life, and I'm dedicating this year to making it happen -- I'm taking a gap year and working a full-time job (and spending the rest of my time auditioning and working on my 9 current roles) to save up enough money to g…

For open casting calls, is it worth even doing them if you’re not an “established” actor. I’ve been to a prestigious acting school and only getting short films, theatre roles etc. I’ve done a lot of open casting auditions and never seem to get a call back. Am I wasting time doing them considering they say “no experienc…

I’ve been incredibly fortunate to have worked as an actor. On the flip side of that I’m left feeling lukewarm about the majority of the work I’ve done.

Hey everyone! For special skills on actors access do you have videos as seperate clips or one skills reel together?
