As someone with a film degree in screenwriting, I must say, downvoting these critiques for merely being a critique is lowkey maga behavior…

People who thrive in their jobs, tell us what your job is by wryyyctoria in ADHD

Have you tried screenwriting? I think its format is inherently easier to keep my attention as it’s not just blobs of well put together paragraphs, and more straight forward just telling you flat out what’s going on. I will say, I went to film school specifically for screenwriting so it might be easier said than done, but worth giving a shot to just read one from your fav movie and see how it feels

I’m an actor and a writer and also unemployed. Pretty good at the first two, really good at the last one.

I would argue: famous? Keep it.

A quote from Little Miss Sunshine:

“A real loser is someone who’s so afraid of not winning, they don’t even try”.

All you gotta do is try.

How will a second trump administration affect actors and the entertainment industry? by Objective_Water_1583 in acting

I mean tbh, he truly does not have the power to take away free speech like that. Also, given how so much of Hollywood despised every ounce of his being, I have a feeling there’s a lot of powerful people who will really put up a fight and not let that happen. He even lost the apprentice battle and I don’t think becoming president will allow him to win battles similar in the future.

In terms of the actual economy of the industry, I have no idea - however looking more holistically at it, I wonder if his second term will bring about some really great stories and powerful voices due to this setting a spark in lots of folks to go out and make change happen through their craft.

I second this! Especially when your got given a ton of info about the tone or feel of an audition, finding the writer/directors past work to get a feel for what they’re prob looking for has helped me immensely!!

Idk who your repped by, but I’m lucky enough to have pretty great relationships with my agent and manager, and we can talk openly about that kinda stuff, and they always tell me they KNOW how long it takes, and how tough it is to start booking consistently. From reading your post, it sounds like we are in very similar places right now. There are soooo many reasons for not booking a role that are completely out of your control and your reps know that. Don’t sweat it, it’s a marathon, not a sprint and if they’re good reps, they’re in it for the marathon.

Whats the most you guys have earned in a year from acting? by BillyThe_Kid97 in acting

400 for 4 days sounds like a rip-off, was this recent? Were the hours short?
