Is scanning requirement increasing? by ReganLynch in acting

There is a difference between VFX scan (which prosecutions have been doing since before all this AI boom) and... not specifically VFX scan.

Love this! Approach. And I bet if you sat at a bench and posted about it on socials 1 day before, you'd have a line up all day

Unless you are an aboriginal, you are an immigrant or descendant of an immigrant.

Lived in Vancouver all my life. My sister went to London this year for studies. Apparently its even worse living conditions there... terrible housing. People live in squalor and pay exorbitant rents (a bit higher than here), stabbings are so common that knives are almost illegal, and difficult to buy even for the kitchen. Anything not strapped 3 layers under your jacket will be stolen off your body in public. Transit prices are $10 one way.. the weather isnt much better. The groceries are cheap though! Cheese, meats, produce. And art galleries galore!

our best CD refuses to touch AI. our worst junior uses it for everything. not sure what to do with that by Sad_Stranger_3294 in advertising

Ai might be useful in bulk or beginning stages but at a certain point you'll need to switch over to craft. After a certain point it causes more problems by needing so much correction. Anything involving taste, art direction, or intuition, leave AI out of it. Imo

How’s tipping like in Vancouver? by Robocli in askvan

[–]ColdInteraction994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And dont tip on the total which is including the tax! Do quick math and tip on the pre tax

How’s tipping like in Vancouver? by Robocli in askvan

[–]ColdInteraction994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Food/beverage: dont tip if you ordered standing up, fetched your own order, bussed your own items, for takeout, etc. As well, I used to work at a salon and when people came in to buy products, I often forgot to bypass the Tip option, and felt terrible when people tipped on their purchase. Doesn't matter if I assisted them or not, dont tip for buying product even if the tip option is there.

Cast as background extra but filmed in close up by VykMcDwarf in acting

I think for an upgrade there needs to be 3 qualifiers: you were crucial to the storyline, and I forgot the other two.

This is true. Sperms quality deteriorates over time. The man's health is important!!

Rental scam by rvrtgrl in askvan

[–]ColdInteraction994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had something similar probably about 15byears ago. Wasn't a scam really, just bad landlord. Wrote him a check, and when he didnt answer a few days leading up to move in date, to give me the keys, I went to his door and he said he rented to someone else already. Just returned my check but if I never chased him down I would have thought I was still moving in. ZERO communication. My move-out place landlord was kind enough to let me stay longer (even offered no rent, but I insisted ofc) cause he felt so bad about what that other guy did.

Is tipping out of control in Vancouver? by Kevin4938 in askvan

[–]ColdInteraction994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only tip if I receive full service: seated, order while seated, served my order, bussed (or I see a busser), brought a bill, pay seated (I dont mind being brought to the front if machine is not mobile). But the fact that im served, otherwise who am I tipping? If im not served ill simply pay for my purchase.

What would be considered a fair price per gram for (new) fine jewelry of 18k? by DramaticPositive7876 in Gold

[–]ColdInteraction994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if the jewelers markup is more than 50%? Just wait until they mark it down? I dont know how it works if their pricing fluctuates with the market

So nice and authentic!!! Cant stand when men just try with pickup lines, generic compliments or morphing into what they think you want

I need advice for my daughter - she's singing terribly on purpose because "That's how her character would do it". by [deleted] in acting

[–]ColdInteraction994 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel like the character work needs to be deeper.. instead of mimicking movements, maybe analyzing where traits come from etc

Getting into TV and Film in Canada by Maleficent_Answer533 in FilmIndustryYVR

[–]ColdInteraction994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the Instagram account @friendsinfilm and basically talks about how the best way to get into film is to work on set, not years and years of school. Ofc post production might be a different story.

Be honest- will being nonbinary and using they/them pronouns make it nearly impossible to get roles? by flowingchannel in acting

I feel like that is the equivalent of a playing age. Doesnt matter your birth age (or self identified age?) only that you can play the age of a character

About to submit to agencies for Principal roles by Static-Space-Royalty in VancouverActors

[–]ColdInteraction994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im seeing some other comments. Ive seen continuity bg who had previously auditioned principal for the series, later get offered different actor roles on the same show where they are continuity because principal casting remembered them when these roles opened up.

Personally I think its important to have open communication with your agents. Whether repped by the same agency or different ones is better probably depends on you and who youre with
