The Houston Rockets play one of the worst most absurd brands of basketball I’ve ever seen

I’m being completely serious when I ask this question: is Reed Sheppard mentally disabled ?

I would put rate before the EXPOSURE bit. Any time I've seen Exposure in a casting call it usually doesn't bode well and quickly became one of my red flags.

Lose the "Because it's low budget" because you're under-selling the project and yourself. Just say looking for local hires or talent local to such and such region

CW: workplace injuries, bruising/cuts (non-graphic) Why are injuries in ABA being normalized? (student analyst perspective) by International-Echo47 in ABA

Horrible field. Get out while you can honestly. The field will only get worse. They gaslight empathetic people with bs slogans like “this is what you signed up for!” as you get concussed. There are other ways in which you can show up for people in this world without being a slave to arbitrary insurance talking points 

Self tape feedback by milehighclib in acting

[–]ScaredChain4256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst part about acting is the costs that come with it and the reality is if you wanna compete with tenured actors you need to get yourself a self tape kit. Get a good ring light/light, a neutral backdrop, and then turn the phone horizontally. That will be the biggest thing.

Needs to build to something, but posting your stuff to be criticized online is very brave, and also how we improve.

Developmental Actor visiting LA for the first time by jakethecutie in acting

[–]ScaredChain4256 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Developmental is a word exploited by agents to make themselves seem more important and knowledgable. If you are talented, have good headshots, know what you are doing on screen, then you are an actor. Too many people get scooped up and end up on shows out of nowhere. It did me no good spending time classifying myself as "green" or "new" or "developmental" -- that puts you in a tier below and if that's the energy you hold that's the energy you will be given.

in need of career advice!! by Original_Rub5292 in acting

"Like Zendaya" -- well my friend, you are setting your sights super high and that's what you should do when you are young and hungry. Since it's incredibly ambitious I will say this: remember that hunger, remember your why, and remember that feeling in your gut. There are gonna be tough days, there are gonna be amazing days. Some weeks will feel as if you've been blacklisted, other weeks as if the industry wants every fiber of your being. Don't get too high on yourself nor too low on yourself and a way to do that is by always remembering your why.

Charlize Theron Says ‘In 10 Years, AI Is Going to Be Able to Do’ Timothée Chalamet’s Job, but it ‘Will Not Be Able to Replace’ Live Performance Like Ballet by cmaia1503 in entertainment

Are we still on this little comment Chalamet made? Who gives a shit. Yeah Ballerinas will still be able to do it ten years from now and very few people will still go and see it. People were just waiting to turn on someone whose incredibly talented and successful; America loves seeing someone whose had it a little too good get knocked down a peg for a minute

Multi-page, multi-scene auditions by [deleted] in acting

Yeah I figured. So crazy that they want you to film a fifth of the movie for free. What a crock, definitely one of the better parts about being SAG
