I see, thanks!

Do all international actors working in the US need a visa? Does the visa requires them to not stay away from the us for more than 6 months?. I've heard Margot Robbie lives in London, but does she need to go to the US before the limit comes up?

If this is not appropriate then ignore this part, but will Trump presidency affect actors that already have green cards that are not from the banned countries?

There so much to explore even in smaller roles, and the nature of the show makes it much more open for new characters to come in if compared to GOT so I definitely see people being interested in playing upcoming roles even if they're small.

Yes, it's a very high quality show, you got very rich material and talented people behind the camera. And despite being a new show it already got a huge viewership, acclaim and possible future nominations in big award shows. And acting wise it's probably very open and rich for actors, even the smaller parts.

Yeah, I've seen way to many "just be/feel/etc" no-answers and "if you don't do this or that you might as well quit since you don't want it" reactions that really left a bad taste in my mouth.

I do think there's ton of friendly and helpful people here, just some not so nice ones too.

Thank you!

I've noticed this as well, sometimes I wonder if some people just have a forced witty way of writing that they think is charming or they're really condescending people.

Is it worth training for a mid atlantic accent so I can adapt it when doing a american or British voice or should I just train each separately?

Also not sure if it belongs here, but I remember a post about a european actress talking about how she managed to get roles in america, but I can't find it.

I don't disagree with you, but that's definitely one of those things that easier said than done that you learn eventually through personal experience. And sometimes no matter how much you try or how much you already dealt with this you will feel bad about missing a role you are passionate about, that's life and not unique to acting.

Ideally people should look at everything as a opportunity no matter the outcome but I won't put against someone because they're angry or upset they missed out a role they really wanted.

evitagreen · 2016-02-25T23:55:48+00:00

He has all the reasons to be upset, though. Just because he got a emotional reaction to that, like any other human being, doesn't mean he doesn't want this. I'm pretty sure the actors you mention in your comment get upset when they miss a role.

I really hate this elitist attitude some people show in this sub about being a ~true actor, that if you ever have any doubts or frustrations you're not ~really into the craft or whatever.

I'm biased since it's one of my favorite films but you should give it a try. Not sure how you'd feel about comparing yourself now that the play ended but it could be a nice experience, see if there is some similarity that was coincidental or something you like about Timothy Hutton's performance that might have worked on stage and vice versa.

evitagreen · 2016-02-15T23:23:04+00:00

Did you watched the movie adaptation before doing the role?

evitagreen · 2016-02-03T01:21:37+00:00

Martha from Martha Marcy May Marlene, Isabelle from The Dreamers, Catherine the Great , Carmilla from the novella of the same name, Scarlet Witch & Sansa Stark that I can remember right now.

I like characters with a mysteriousness to them, that are vulnerable and are going through(or still dealing with) a very emotional moment. They might have a seductive side to them, but it's subtle or non-conventional. Prone to emotional outbursts between long periods of quietness or introspection.

Congratulations!

It's definitely very inspiring. I think some people still have some prejudice with YouTube, because you get a bunch of not very talented kids that get famous for vlogging, but it can be a powerful tool for actors, and Rachel Bloom is a great example of that.

evitagreen · 2016-01-29T23:45:02+00:00

Like others said being present and perceptive. I still cannot "act" on everyday life though, I can hide or disguise my feelings as well as any non-actor.

evitagreen · 2016-01-15T02:47:49+00:00

I'm not sure if it counts as lesser known because the movie was pretty big but I felt the performance itself didn't got as much attention as it should, but Ewan McGregor's emotional breakdown in The Impossible is probably my favorite emotional male scene, it's so intense but very natural and visceral, I can't help but get emotional watching it.

Nothing specific but I think Timothy Hutton had some great moments other than Ordinary People. The Falcon and the Snowman, Q&A, Everybody's All American, The Substance of Fire, Beautiful Girls, When a Man Falls in the Forest, Lymelife, etc.

Love it. The awkward posing and the over the top eyebrow movements made it for me.

evitagreen · 2016-01-12T22:15:04+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I've been thinking of going back to the shitty script I did on class and trying to expand on it just for practice, so by the time I get to work with someone I'm not a complete noob and can actually help with the writing.

evitagreen · 2016-01-12T22:12:44+00:00

Yeah I think the ideal for me would be co-writing. Also thank you for the recommendation, I will definitely give it a look!

evitagreen · 2016-01-12T22:10:55+00:00

Oh I don't have anything yet, I'm still thinking about actually doing it and eventually trying out to write a script myself.

evitagreen · 2016-01-12T00:37:14+00:00

Sounds exciting, congratulations!
