A Good friend of mine is doing a good number of acting gigs in Korea, speaking parts. Apparently, he is having a hard time getting on the credits there however as they are only listing in the credits just the Korean cast. Would you know of any other difficulties that actors may face overseas?

Hey Kurt, I have a question about monologues, if you can do a video about it that would be awesome.! I was just wondering, while rehearsing a monolouge, does it have to be word for word with the script or can you add words, or change a few words? Once I put emotion into the character I find myself adding words, that I feel help the monolouge, but I don't know how casting directors would feel about it!

@garyny4073 Жыл бұрын

@@CapJackGaming I would never / could never do a monologue unless it a my own script ! Do u think Heather Locklear , pam Anderson , Kevin Hart can do a monologue that's not improvised , unless you're a theatre actor most big stars have no , little training must less the ability to do a monologue that's not improvised !

We also hade two bedrooms so out-of-town cast/crew could stay there over thrle 2 or 3 day shoot. Kill two birds with ine stone. Also some have used a production staff's own RV, or rented one. Also set up big tents with heating and air as a staging area.

One more, or if it gets cut but it is on the deleted scenes. Again there are no other lines, can you put that on your resume?

@ActingCareerCenter Жыл бұрын

Technically, all of the trailers are called honey wagons in the US, whether they are dressing rooms or bathrooms. But when actors are offered a job, the booking confirmation typically includes the size of the trailer they will be provided and when they say "honey wagon", they typically man the smallest size rooms.

@thedoneeye Жыл бұрын

"I hope to see you in one of these trailers one day." With that in mind I am sooo locking the bathroom door from now on. 😉 I would've died laughing had you opened the bathroom door in the triple and poor Moses was caught on camera again! Just hope he wasn't in the locked cabinet in the double....Awkward. One time I had a room in a honey wagon but each of them had a bathroom. Like others have said I wasn't really in it very long as I was on set most of the time. I did actually use the bathroom once since I wasn't needed on set at the time. And yes, I locked the door. 😁
