Helpful Websites.

 

This page is designed to guide you to ESSENTIAL websites every actor must know about. As with everything on the site, these are my opinions and apologies if anyone you love was left out, blah, blah, blah… Know of a great resource, let me know!

  • SAG-AFTRA logo with a stylized human figure and text in black on a white background.

    SAG-AFTRA

    SAG-AFTRA is the Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. This is the guild that represents all union television and film actors. The website is your resource for all things SAG-AFTRA.

  • The image displays the words 'actors access' in bold red letters on a white background.

    Actors Access

    If you are working in television and film, Actors Access is THE essential website you’ll use to submit your auditions. If you are represented, it will be REQUIRED. There is a free tier, but signing up for Actor’s Access plus will save you a ton if you submit a lot of auditons.

  • Casting Networks logo with three overlapping squares and the text 'Casting Networks' next to it.

    Casting Networks

    This is another essential casting website where you can view and submit to breakdowns. Most agents require talent to have an account with Casting Networks.

  • IMDbPro logo with black and blue text on a white background.

    IMDbPro

    To me, this is an essential website you can use to research projects, directors, agents, and more. It is also essential if you want to add photos and reels to your IMDb page.

  • Title slide for a presentation called "Get Taped!" with Brooke & Matt, featuring an office background and an Atlanta label.

    Get Taped

    They should change the name of this business because they do so much more than taping. They coach, they tape, they do demo reel edits, and they have an incredibly helpful YouTube channel and The Scuttlebutt newsletter.

  • A black circle with light blue handwritten-style text reading 'B3A' inside it.

    Beyond Acting

    This is a consulting/coaching service from notable Atlanta Actor/Coaches Alex Collins and Alison Haseldon. Follow their Facebook and Instagram and subscribe to their newsletter for tons of helpful tips from working pros!
