As many may already know, at times it is difficult finding a reading partner every time you need to submit a self-tape audition. I am willing to be a reading partner in exchange for the same, either via phone, zoom or Skype. I have a select few reading partners that are not always available. I'm sur...

Totally. I have been in the position of needing a reading partner.
This is a great idea, Rick McNeil!
There have been multiple times where I have gotten a "call back audition request" that was asked for asap, and I had difficulty finding a reading partner with short notice. It is always better to pres...

I love this story from Naomi Watts about auditioning with David Lynch for a different type of audition.
Naomi shares about perseverance. You just never know when and where that breakthrough moment will come, so just keep pressing on!

This is great @Geoff Hall. I myself have gotten several parts by just conversing.
A brilliant songwriter and singer but also what an incredible actor. He was always working. Always taking us on the journey. My favorite Kristofferson performance is in SEMI-TOUGH with Burt Reynolds - he was shockingly funny. Are there of his on-screen performances that stick out to you? https://var...

Whistler in Blade, Sam Sokolow.
It's been a rough week with celebrity losses. RIP Whistler.
- Don’t overdo your makeup. You want to look like yourself on your best day and not look like you tried too hard. Be yourself. Do your hair the way you would for every audition.
- Don’t go quirky with clothing and props.
Let’s not get nuts here. Keep it simple and classy, and follow the standard forma...

Awesome advice, as always Tammy. I get asked about headshots occasionally and now I know what advice to give :)
"Keep it simple and classy, and follow the standard format. Professionalism gets you noticed."- great advice! I've seen some really strange headshot choices from performers who thought being unique would do more to get them noticed. But that's not really the point of it all.
Everything he does is an event. I like that he co-wrote this with his son and that his son is directing - he's coming back for so much more than money. Can't wait to see what he does here. What do you think? https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/daniel-day-lewis-ane......

Amazing!!! Props to his son for making it happen!

Hi Caroline. Thanks so much for the kind words. You will need to test things out to make sure the light bouncing off the wall is close enough so that it still fills your face well. Try a few recording...

His acting performance in Industry is phenomenal, glad he's with Paradigm, they're going to be a great agency for him: https://deadline.com/2024/09/industry-ken-leung-signs-paradigm-1236103918/
What do you all think of his acting chops on this show?
I haven't seen Industry, but Ken Leung is a talented actor, Amanda Toney. My favorite movies that he's in are Rush Hour and Missing.

Do union members make proficient local/national executives. The talkies are coming out of the silent era to not just being recorded but created to be recorded. Technology is a tool but who does it really affect. A - F listers and entry level players?
