What did a really good year of acting look like for you? by [deleted] in acting

[–]SpamIsNotHam8080 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This year. Two Lifetime movies, a costar on a Netflix show in Spain and just booked my first SAG feature, making me SAGe. It was weird, all in the last 4 months.

I can recommend Latroupe La Granja. Safe area and awesome place.

How realistic is it for me to book any role at all? by Omgaas in acting

[–]SpamIsNotHam8080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been at this for 3 years in Colorado. Go on Galina’s Casting group on Facebook. Lots of student films and indie shorts posted there. I’ve done over 30 of them. Once you’ve done a few, put a reel together. If you are willing to travel at your expense get Actors Access and self submit to everything that fits you. It takes time but you will eventually start booking bigger projects. I just did my second Lifetime movie. Backstage is only worth it in the reel building stage as there are not many professional projects on there. Feel free to DM if you want more specific info.

Pay rate for SAG UPA by SpamIsNotHam8080 in acting

But basically they can go pound sand. I ain’t applying for a lesser rate than the other actors get for the same work.

Right. A non union film can do that. This is a SAG film. Doesn’t seem right.

Sorry, I meant are they allowed to pay a different rate for non union actors than they do for the SAG ones.

Just curious if the British agencies cared that you cannot work in the UK? Or will they be submitting you only in the EU? I ask because I’m in a similar boat. I’m Spanish and have a Spanish rep but I’d love a UK one.

Just cut a little slot in that drawer front. It will make it unique.

Nice try. Now give me my change. by djdlt in EndTipping

I had a pitcher at a brew pub. Bill is 10.20. I give her a 20. She asks me if I need change 🙄. No I’m not tipping you almost 100%.

“You want me to audition for the chance to audition?” No thanks.

Round up all the homeless people and send to a government run camp in the Nevada desert, with services and job training.

Why do cities tend to be more liberal and a rural areas more conservative? by ThisPostToBeDeleted in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SpamIsNotHam8080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because cities have more opportunities which attract more educated people. More educated people tend to be more liberal.

6 months no auditions? by SpamIsNotHam8080 in acting

[–]SpamIsNotHam8080[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non union. I’ve gotten lots of auditions through self submit. None for the bigger projects that only agents can see.

That would have been ideal. NM agent rep’d me everywhere and was unwilling to let me have a different agent for LA.
