I can pay but I have limited funds per month, so I can only pay 4-5 USD max per line, and no more than 20 dollars per month and a maximum of a…

I just finished up an audition for my second feature length film. Wrapped my last one in November. This was a last minute audition without a lot of prep time. They sent me a 15 page script, so I got to work. Audition time came tonight. They threw me a curveball and skipped the whole first 3/4 of the script. I had this…

This is a question out of pure curiosity (I'm not moving to AUS). I was re-watching an old Aussie kids' show I used to watch when I was younger and it reminded me of how small the film and TV acting circle seems to be in Australia. A handful of actors on this show had done stints on either Home and Away or Neighbours (…

Basically the title. I don't know man, this pandemic has really left me (and I'm sure a lot of us) really nervous if there's a way to make this a full-time profession.

As an aspiring actor, would you recommend me paying for an account at [backstage.com](https://backstage.com)?

Is it a viable option to pay for it? Do you…
