Can you start acting at 40? I didn't start until I was 29, and over 40-plus years I've booked nearly 1,300 acting and modeling jobs. John Mahoney didn't take his first acting class until 37 and landed Frasier at 53.In this video, I share what kind of work is out there for people in their 40s, 50s and beyond, the formul…

One of the more complex areas of voiceover is understanding the subtlety of rates and how they are quoted What information about a project do you need to have at hand to get an accurate rate? How do expectations change between different genres, different countries or different types of usage? I can’t promise all the an…

I recently decided to try to go all in on starting acting, I got my headshots, got actors access premium. Only thing I'm missing is a demo reel. I haven't gotten any self tape auditions despite submitting myself to a lot. I'm assuming it's due to the lack of a demo reel. Since I don't have any credits or anything what…

How do you guys find the words to say when doing improv?

I haven’t quite pinpointed it but I think the direction of this scene was way off or they may have felt that the scene didn’t require as much emotion as it needed- I was extremely bored and unmoved by this scene.

This afternoon, Cathleen and I attended Kramer/Fauci at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn.

While an hour might seem short, the production emphasizes intensity over length, with no unnecessary filler…

While watching some Portal fan videos (that came before generative AI was made public), I noticed that a lot of people are able to make actually great voice impressions.
