Obviously, I’ve hear a lot of distinct voice actors. But I can also hear regular ones. I guess it’s just anime specific like Chris Sabo, Matthew Mercer, or Brittany Karbowski. Just name a few, but their voices are very iconic and like used to the ear so I was just wondering, do you need to know a bunch of accents to ma…

Basically the title. I’m in the casting process for a very very small short film I’m directing. I’ve never done open casting before; I went to a film school with a fairly large acting program so I usually would either cast people I knew personally or it would be like a “So-and-so’s roommate would be good for this” kind…

First time director! Working on a short film that I wrote. I’m super excited but want to make sure I am playing my part in being the best director I can for the actors. Of course I know a lot of it comes down to personal preference but wondering if anyone has general guidance on what they like from their directors.

I recently got accepted into this program as a fairly new actor with little experience (I’ve done some short film and community theatre work, and I’ve never studied acting formally) - it’s quite expensive, and it doesn’t provide a degree, but it does provide a certificate. Do casting directors care about schooling and…

I'm sure we've all done it.We're watching a movie or TV show, seeing an established actor who is right for the part playing a role, and we think to ourselves, "I could totally play that!"

Hi actors, I thought it was time for some fun. Recently, I was listening to a podcast of a live radio show and they were talking about times when things went awry. A bit that went south.
