The best way today is to create your own material. If you don't have an agent, you'll just get student films and low budget stuff that won't get any attention.
Personally, as an aspiring film actor in LA (I’m 28), should I focus more on doing student/independent films or theatre to become recognized in your opinion?
Hey Robert, Both are good and will provide credits for your resume. You won't get reel footage from theatre though, so you're hoping somebody important will be at one of your performances, which does happen. I wouldn't rule anything out for now, stay busy stay active.
Thank you for your channel and all of your advices ! You are so helpful , especially regarding the details we tend to forget ! Also, i am in Montreal and putting together a team to produce quality demo videos, some would be real short movies and others would look like extracts of long movies, do you think it could get some attention ? I want to put my acting skills (also as an art director) forward , as well as making my collegues shine, i do believe in team work and Canada can be a gentler place than the US regarding that. What do you think ?
Great tip. Thanks. I need to get my materials in line. That's my main goal this year.
You got this Stanley! Get it!
i know this was particularily aimed at acting as a career but this really goes for any career but it's good advice.

any advice on how to create your own material? Do you mean act out scenes and record on my phone?

Thanks for the motivation! I've got a lot of footage and my reel will be coming in the next few months hopefully.

Yeah wow I just looked at the likes and expected a "K" in there! Never checked before. I love his stuff, I just assumed he was bigger!
