Hi! I saw a commercial that I was in that finally came out on Instagram. Since I don’t have the original clip could I screen record the video and post it on my page?

After a lot of research, I've decided not to proceed with an agency that offered me representation. I sent them some questions about the contract and they basically yelled at me over email.

Hi everyone. To expand on what I’m asking, I’m a now 3rd year university student in the UK studying economics.

Every actor needs training — but not every class or teacher is the right fit.
