Any of you considering being actors or work in the industry?

When I lose weight, I want to get an agent. I've made some short films too with the school film club.

A lot of locals have been extras in films being shot in LA since the tax credit program started
I knew one that was in all the twilight movies filmed here and has been in a lot of different movies as an extra, uncredited roles
She never made it big time in the industry but it was a lot of steady work for a period of time, you had to be prepared to work weird hours
That's what you have to do sometimes to get started and even then it's a longshot to make it that route
She had another job as well but they were pretty flexible in letting her do it

Director David Lynch says to get out and make your own movie, act, anyone can literally do it if passion is there. Today's pro-sumer cameras and lighting, etc., is affordable for all. You can edit and score your film on the same platform many directors/editors now use, i.e. DaVinci Resolve. Lynch points out how his generation did not have this great age of fast and affordable movie making tools.

Only if I can get the Weinstein perks without the #MeToo risk.

I'd rather make the films than be in them nowadays

Boo Krewe,

You have got to stop. This troll job you are doing is beyond cringeworthy. There is no way you are real. This is a Chip Chiperson clone.

I do a little standup here and there, but mostly open mics. Buddy of mine and I have been working on a podcast which we haven’t released yet. I’ve also tried writing screenplays, but haven’t nearly finished any of my projects.

I’ve got a screenplay or two in mind. May or may not ever try to do anything with it.

I have friends and family that are in the business; crew, make-up, actors, producers, directors, writers, etc. but I've never wanted to be in the movie biz.

my dream job was voice over actor or working doing voices in cartoons or video games or other things.

I have always done impressions since a small child and I continued to do them as now a 40 year old.

so yes, the consideration was there at one point in my life but I never pursued it and now I am family man with job and mortgage and can't start over with such a dream

whoa is me...at least I still make people around me laugh with impressions and play funny voiced songs on the guitar.
