Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask but does anyone happen to know websites where they offer acting advice?
 
Alexia Dark is the resident actress. Pm her. She probably knows.
 
Don't know. Fairly regular, I guess.
 
I'm an actor as well, and I can tell you that while websites can be good for gigs, you'll rarely find any good lessons, at least none that you couldn't find in good acting books. The best way to train is to take classes while also performing in shows. If you want, I can PM you a list of books to start off with.
 
I am a veteran voice actor...but that is about it. Would love to do voice gigs but I am no where near opportunities and my life is going in another direction anyways.
 
Could you offer me some advice?
I was joking about being a veteran:csad: I have only done small stuff around here but never went big time. I practice practice practice. If I want to sound like someone, I watch their movies and I get it down after a few tries. Some just come natural and I can do them right off the bat...I would say I have a talent.
 
Sounds like you're pretty good to me. I wish you the best of luck...if this is the profession you wish to get in on.

Those days are gone...:csad: My dream was to be on SNL but I am now trying to get into med school because I had to face reality...cold hard reality:csad:
 
Dude, anyone can do anything if they really set out to do it.

I know that comics is what I ultimately want to do, but I'd like to get a few acting parts as well. I'm a comic book writer at heart, and I want to be an actor on the side. One thing I've learned even at 14 is to have something to fall back on. Comics is what I'd fall back on if acting didn't work, because I know my comic business will eventually go far.

And meanwhile, I'm running away from it yelling "I'm not listening LALALALALA".

I am not open to it happening if a chance were to open up, but as of right now...I need something concrete to look forward to as I make my life. Acting and voice work is not a concrete field:csad: I had to realize that.
 
I am currently hooked on The Venture Brothers and after buying the dvd's and watching them two fold...I can do about half of all the characters now...lame talent but it makes my friends and family laugh.
 
Not a lame talent at all. Being able to change your voice is always cool in my opinion.
 
My parents beat the LALALALALA out of me so I had to listen to them.

I'm paying for my own college, so luckily my parents had no say. They definitely wish I was doing something else though.

I wish I could do it as naturally as you do. It took a good amount of training for me to get good at modifying my voice.
 
What do you need advice on?

I am no actor but my dog is brillant and he might be able to help.

Edit: Except Limewire and the reason for why I cannot download it on my VISTA program
 
If you're not going to offer anything important, don't post. Post more spam and I'll alert the Mods. Copische?
