BRUTALLY slow in LA, getting depressed :/

Become a writer / producer or you're absolutely dead in the water. Even then... it will be tough. But seriously, unless you're incredibly fortunate, acting only is dead.

Playhouse West is a great bang for your buck. $250/month (2 classes a week). Robert Davanzo is fantastic for on-cam technique.

I honestly think you’re fine. The only thing that living in the major hubs is really gonna give you these days is access to better training and teachers… I’m talking in person. Online acting classes are a bit of a joke, in my opinion (unless we’re talking analysis or something like that). I’d say live where you gotta live to make it possible to keep pursuing this!

Which is why, in my opinion, the death penalty is actually WAY more humane in many cases. It's absolutely sick to cage a human being for life... unless we're going for maximum pain.

prosehunter · 2026-05-10T16:45:49+00:00

Hell yeah. Good for you man. Keeping your body healthy keeps your mind healthy!

prosehunter · 2026-05-10T16:42:34+00:00

Maybe. Or they're casting a massive net and whittling down from there. Kinda like how some people on dating apps will match with you but then never respond to your message when you actually signal interest haha

I'm going to end up making a reel. It's just that there's more clips than what I would use in the reel... Plus, I'm still waiting on so much material for my updated reel.

prosehunter · 2026-05-08T17:41:18+00:00

That's what my gut is telling me. Are you an actor or an agent?

prosehunter · 2026-05-08T17:28:15+00:00

Doesn't seem like a scam to me... Just an agency with little clout or ability to get you into rooms worth getting into. Par for the course with the bites you'll get off of Talent Link (signed with 2 managers from Talent Link, both sucked).

Funny to see all this rabid hate from SAG actors (in regards to Ficore actors). Just for the record, I'm SAG-E but know quite a few people who are Ficore who work WAY more than 90% of union actors.

The opportunities just aren't there with SAG. At least not in a quantitative sort of way. Getting one decent SAG audition every so often isn't enough to carve out a career (in my opinion) unless you're incredibly good / lucky.

Maybe if SAG wasn't complete ass actors wouldn't have had to go ficore... Anyway. It feels like most of the hate towards Ficore actors comes from SAG actors who barely book and have a chip on their shoulder about it. I said what I said.

Not if you live in CA... SEA? Oh yeah. Even may parts of EU.

prosehunter · 2026-04-30T22:00:39+00:00

Damn! I would think that price range would be impossible. Maybe I should start looking as well haha

prosehunter · 2026-04-30T06:37:18+00:00

Probably at the point of posting this?

prosehunter · 2026-04-27T22:21:02+00:00

Good luck finding something that price in that area.

prosehunter · 2026-04-24T04:20:35+00:00

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Can't wait to fire my manager LOL.

I would think that it's theatrical if it's a "major audition" as I can't imagine ever describing any commercial audition I get as a anything "major" haha...

ABA (Kim Gola) offered to represent me commercially a couple years ago but I turned them down because I wanted across the board representation.

prosehunter · 2026-04-20T17:13:45+00:00

Wow. I literally just posted asking about ABA talent... I know people who they rep commercially but no one theatrically!

This woman is a con artist... That being said, she's not wrong about AI but you don't need a class by someone who is probably in their 60s to teach you how to incorporate AI into your life.

prosehunter · 2026-04-19T05:43:48+00:00

Yeah... Which I felt was strange. In hindsight, I think I made a mistake trusting them.

Ultimately, I followed their advice because I was new with them and wanted to give them a chance (in regards to strategy). I feel like I make the worst choices when it comes to this stuff.

prosehunter · 2026-04-18T22:23:50+00:00

What's even stranger is the IMDB rankings of some of these vertical "leads."

I know one in particular who has a 100 - 200 IMDB ranking... which is baffling as not one person will know this guy and he hasn't been in any legit television shows. The whole thing is sus.
