A vibrant group where actors and enthusiasts can share, learn, and connect. This is a place for you to discuss everything related to the craft and business of acting.
What are you and those around you doing.
Less about industry news and more about creating a place to post your or interesting internet content.
Would like to get people who do for internet videos actively using and discussing.

this is the second time in my life where ive questioned if i should risk it all to be an actress. im 15, and its the only thing ive felt passionate about, but im not confident. ive only done theater but i want to be a film actress. back in September i started attending acting classes for commercials and my teacher was super great and an actor too, but i noticed how much harder it is to perfect my acting when im supposed to be so serious as opposed to stage acting. i got so anxious to do a commercial scene where i was supposed to act like i was watching someone run around and i didnt know how to convey my emotions and use my face expressions and body language i just felt so lost. so much so that i told her i couldnt attend the class even thought it was the final one just because i was far too scared to perform that commercial due to how ill prepared i was. its the only job i wanna do and i was motivated before but now ever since that class i feel as though ive lost my spark due to being so self-conscious.
Hi I am fresher and have no prior experience in acting. I want to get into the industry. Where should I start ? I did not join any acting institute and have never acted in my life.
Hi! I was in a film that went to VOD in July after the initial theatrical release. When can I expect a first residual check? I can’t find any info online and am trying to somewhat plan for the holidays.
Hello everyone! I'm currently a working performer and I'm starting my own Social Media Management business but I want to specifically help other performers/performer adjacent businesses with their social media marketing. I'm talking photographers, videographers, agents, entertainment companies/agencies, performing arts schools, fitness trainers etc - if this sounds like you, then I kindly ask if you can fill out my short survey which I am using to conduct target audience research for my own business. This will really help me as I am currently in the research phase. https://forms.gle/pihtPAdwFh1TnuBo6
I just watched Smile 2 and had a great time, I loved the movie, but when I saw Gemma, I instantly took my phone out to find out what other show/ movie I knew her from. I couldn’t see anything that I watched where I recognized her from, but a clip of her being in a show kept playing in my head it was driving me crazy!!!! I searched on reddit “Dylan Gelula lookalike actors” and couldn’t find a thing. Its been three days and I just remembered: Megan from shameless. I have NEVER watched shameless but I have scrolled through those stupid clips of shameless on my fyp and searched up the actress to be: DYLAN FUCKING GELULA. WHY DOESNT GOOGLE HAVE HER ROLE ON SHAMELESS IN HER NAME SEARCH. This search had me crazy for the past 2 days. I just wanted to share as this has been eating my brain on where I knew Gemma from. Thanks for listening!
Romantic cowboy, cosmic cowboy, space cowboy… I’ve liked him in everything I’ve seen him in, but is there a movie where I would say,”That’s Sam Elliott.”
This actor advertised before the day and age of social media. https://www.facebook.com/share/zvVvS7wF7wJAQvs8/?mibextid=xfxF2i
His wiki page is https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Woodruff
To be honest, I saw them in a lot of shows (Skymed, Locke & Key, The Rookie, Ginny & Georgia, The Boys) and I just thought he kept himself booked and busy, and, honestly, respect. And, frankly, I didn't pay that much attention to their names. Well, I guess he wasn't super busy; he was just two separate people. Was this only me?

Hi everyone, I have a question.
My sister-in-law is an actress, she had a few minor roles in TV shows in my country, but rarely in theatre.
But now she has one of the main roles in theatre play and she invited me to attend the premiere.
Since I don’t know a lot of actors and I don’t want to ask her if I am going to surprise her, should I get her flowers? Always in movies I have seen the main roles get flowers as a gift, but I honestly don’t know if its just in the movies 😂
Please help me out 🥹
I was asked to submit a tape to a CD''s Drop Box folder, very specific instructions on naming the file were given. I named my tale "John Smith- Captain 1". I upload to their Dropbox and get the confirmation email where I see my video name was uploaded as "Captain 1 John Smith". This type of thing has happend before. Is there a setting for me to change or does the CD have it set to auto rename the file?
Anyone else have this issue?
Ok, I need help. I am trying to find a name of an actor that is not much popular. He looks like mix of Matthew McConaughey and have a mouth like Rey Liota. I remember a very big mouth and smile and a wierd laughter.
How do you prepare young actors for when the scene calls for them to be yelled/screamed at by an adult?
I'm a background and I already know about actors access, backstage, casting networks, but I was wondering if anyone has used Source & Cast? Is it legit? and what your experience was like if any?
Does anyone know of or have a good collection of acting scenes. Film/tv or theatre. Like a google drive or website or something?
rewatching SNL and i can not for the life of me remember this guy’s name
Brand new director here with zero experience, but tons of ideas, looking for a female and male to star in my comedy/heist short film. Will be financially compensated.
edited for more detail: The only thing I bring to the table is that I have zero conventional film schooling. Have watched a lot of movies. The short film will be comprised of all the cliches from the comedy/heist genre. Every time I watched a scene, I wondered if I can improve it some way. This short film will do just that. Please message me if interested. Thanks in advance.
guy understands he's playing roles, right?
like. and he's not just playing the same role, except on a spectrum....
i'm finally watching Only Murders and this guy is as goofy as he's ever been, ever.
but like, obviously exaggerated to high hell.
(it's not charming or clever, btw. it just irks me to no end.)
