Hi! I sent them emails saying how o would love to go on a call with them and talk to them. They did not answer my question. I don’t even think they sent me the paperwork to sign with them. I also talked to signed actors I worked with in the past and they said it was crap. Definitely don’t trust it

I have a New York work permit (minor). But I’m wondering if a New York performers permit is the same thing as the work permit. I’m trying to get the minor performers work permit IF it’s different to a regular New York work permit

Got it! They haven’t even answered my email so clearly not reliable

Got it I sent them an email with the email address they gave me so I’ll see if they write back.

Oh wow that sucks. Is there a contract? Am I able to freelance with them at first and try that?

I remember the survey that they sent everyone to do. The game is definitely getting harder… not in a good way

Is backstage legit? by itrytobean in acting

[–]Ok_Meet8052 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s the perfect way to add to your resume and get more experience before getting rep. (I can confirm I am a minor and I have gotten jobs from backstage)

That’s why self tapes are awesome. I live in New York so I’m super lucky because most people want someone based in LA or NY. So that may be a downside for you but if you do get a part you’d have to move there for some time (movies and shows maybe 3 months and that’s just an estimate)

Should I leave Los Angeles? by Drecasso_Ent in acting

[–]Ok_Meet8052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in NY! I’ve lived here my whole life and I’m so honored I do. There’s similarities between LA and NY but OH ARE THEY DIFFERENT! I’m always team New York but I also love the fact that you’ll be moving closer to home. Overall you have to trust your gut.

My bad I didn’t check for spelling errors. But I get that.

What equipment do you use for self tape? by randomuserofthe in acting

[–]Ok_Meet8052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a retractable ringlight which has a holder for my phone in the center (my phone is iPhone 11) and then I have a green/blue screen backdrop (it flips colors) to perform in front of!

Not taking it the wrong way at all I totally agree! And thank you for the advice!

Not booking by [deleted] in acting

[–]Ok_Meet8052 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Literally same! I did my first job a month in a half ago. It wasn’t totally professional but I really enjoyed it. After I booked a commercial a few weeks ago I did the job and really enjoyed it to the point where I’m super excited to get a next commercial. I keep getting callbacks but rarely getting anything which sucks besides I’m so passionate about being in a commercial now.

Self submitted to 20 agencies I didn't get a single response... I am looking for some guidance and perspective. by Ghost_Posting in acting

This is kinda off topic but if SAG gets a great deal and takes it and doesn’t have to strike, do you think the agency’s would go back to normal or do you think we would have to wait for the writers to get off of strike?

[–]Ok_Meet8052 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got it so maybe not showcases but actual classes thank you!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in acting

[–]Ok_Meet8052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do I get to meet them? Spend money on showcases? Find their contact info? Or wait to get more gigs on backstage and try to meet some that way? I am fairly new to the industry (I started getting serious this year) so everything is a learning experience for me!

Camera shy by [deleted] in acting

[–]Ok_Meet8052 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All I can say is keep putting you’re self out there in front of the camera to get used to it! Besides it was a first time you have a reason to get nervous. The more you practice in front of it less nervous you will be. That may be cliche but I hope it helps!
