LA meetup

I'm coming to LA for a week and am looking for some Stage 32 people to meet up with. I'll be there from the 11th of August until the 18th. Anyone want to have a drink?

David Ingrassano

I think so too. I was at an fashion show/event there about a month ago. I walked through the different rooms on the first and second floor. I think I counted 3 bars in the building and a few lounges u...

Looks as though I have now missed this - have only just arrived from Brazil - did you all have a good time? I am here for the Scriptwriters Conference - anyone else here for this - I am at Hyatt Regen...

Looks like I was a little late for this one as well. If you all have another and I'm in So Cal I'd love to do a meetup with all of you.

Los Angeles Meetup! Thursday, July 17th @ 7:00 PM

Hey, LA (and surrounding areas) peeps! If you can make this meetup at The Perch in downtown L.A., please post here. If another day works better, share that, too. We want as many people to show up as possible. http://www.perchla.com/

We had our 3rd Stage 32 meet up last night. This time we joined another meet up group that labels themselves FILM/GAMING/MUSIC COMPOSERS. About 30 people showed up, eight of those were from STAGE32. T...

Sounds amazing! I keep having to miss them, darnit!

David Ingrassano

Marni, Now that we joined with this other group it will always be the 2nd Tuesday of the month at Busby's. I'm sure other LA meetups will pop up as well.

Sarah Schulz

I definitely hope there will be other meetups; Tuesday is the one day every week I'm not free to go! :)

David Ingrassano

look on other thread. There's a group starting in Manhattan Beach

Tony Hunter
British Invasion

Hi all, I'm looking for some advise. I'm a British actor based in London and I'm looking for as much information on how to go about taking my career across the pond to the states. Do I go on a small trip first to scope it out? LA or New York? What would I need to have in place before I go? Anyone in...

Daniel Johnson

Definitely take a trip man. I went to LA last year for 10 days. Learned a lot, met some great people, decided it wasn't for me at all. Don't change your life without first checking it out. If you're g...

Very good advice Daniel.

Bruno Xavier

No.1 thing to consider - Do you have a visa to work in the states? If not then life will be very difficult for you over here regardless of where you go and what you want to do.

Anatomy of a good reel

What do you consider the essential components of a good acting reel? The first person who says "good acting" gets a prize ;-)

Cela Yildiz

I'm an actor, an impersonator, a true shapeshifter. I'll bring old and new characters alive. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCoMVBBt27E

Mark Ashworth

That's very well pieced together reel Cela and it shows you are working but I'm afraid to say I don't see the 'work'. It in my opinion may be a good Print reel. I didn't hear your voice in it once !

Bruno Xavier

This isn't an acting reel. The first rule of reels is NO montages and this "reel" is pretty much just a 2 min montage.

Bruno Xavier

As Mark says its very well put together but it doesn't serve the purpose of an acting reel.

Cela Yildiz

I admit this is a new and different concept, a teaser to show possibilities. However, the voice is only a part of the acting and I don't see how a reel is even possible with NO montages. It's always a montage.
