Welcome, my fellow actor. My name is Kurt Yue and I'm the founder of The Acting Career Center.
As a working actor in film and television with 50+ IMDb credits, my goal is to share everything I've learned to help you jump start your career.
Too many actors end up guessing what to do. Or they get their information from people who aren't really plugged into the industry.
Then they find themselves wasting a bunch of time and money when they could have been taking real action steps to move their careers forward. Let's make sure that doesn't happen to you.
Whether you're a complete beginner or have been at it for years but are feeling stuck, you probably want to improve your skills and expand your knowledge to take your career to the next level. I want to help you do just that.

Who is the Best Agent? | Agent Recommendations for Actors
I’d love to play Peter Parker
For the answer to the second question, I want too be seen and known.
For the answer to the first question, I feel like when you are acting you are no longer yourself and you are the character.
Paul walker inspired me to
Great tips.
Oh my gosh! Thanks so much for this! I had to do a selft tap while on a shoot in the evening...The lighting and my tiny little travel ring light had no chance! It was sooo dark but it worked in front of a closet door.
Finally a setup with just soft boxes. Thanks so much for sharing! What do you use for your backdrop?
What
I hope to be behind camera and to be in a movie because that’s my only dream
I want to become an actor because it is something I know I am good at. Not just to impress others but because I’m very passionate about it. I love acting and being on camera and just interacting with others while doing it.
Is too show poeple who you can do thn them
Because i had have dream of be in and actor one day i usually watch movie read book reaf novel many as i can know what i will like to do that is number one
I am moving to Atlanta Georgia and I want to pursue acting. My problem is I don’t want to skip out on auditions because of my job. However I don’t think a part time job will be enough to afford a place to stay. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
This may sound weird but I’ve always had a love of movies and film but I also have a gut feeling that I should give acting a shot
dead body on law and order
Some goals I have are to star in a major franchise like marvel or starwars
I want to be an actor to prove to my friends and family that I can make it as one.
I am back in the business after many years and I can't tell you how much you are helping me! Thank you so much!
I'm a lot more determined this year and i feel(know) that im gonna achieve this dream💫
So you have to go through all that to get a good audition what is the software again and does it have directions on how to use it? Thank you
How do I qualify to receive agent representation
Movies and series
knowledgeable +your hand gesture and body language is nice
I have been blessed to been on some films and I still have no agent or manger! I find it the hardest thing to get! But I will not stop trying! Great video
👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿
I am 21 and have an online audition in 4 days. I’ve never acted a day in my life and just this week decided I wanted to give acting a try😭 hopefully this will be one of many failures!!!!
I just felt it was right(8 years old) puff then i discoverd David Tennant(DOCTOR WHO) cmon ❤ i know thats my goal ( have a strong emotions and enjoy in people)
by your numbers, you are making auditions roughly 1 every 3 days or so and landing a job once a month. What are your costs to get the auditions vs the bookings profits?

Learn your cues as well as your lines. I worked on one show where one of the actors didn't know his cues, so the other actors couldn't afford to pause while delivering their lines otherwise this guy would assume it was his turn and start saying his lines.
I want to be an actor because i don't want to die like this. I want to be someone. The world don't even know that I exist.
Actually this is the best advise you can get for any kind of work you want to do: study, study, study... So... This is also true for acting... I sometimes get selected for the jobs as extra's ... but never as actor... I think I'll start doing training, that's the best approach to get selected as actor instead of an extra ... Funny is I'm now a software developer... Like you used to be. Thank you for this good advise.
Omg, I LOVE Helen Hunt, go you 👏
Thank you for explaining things so easy and understandable! It’s very useful piece of advice! I wish success to all of us in this amazing career!
I would like to inspire other heavyset black males. I also would also like to get to the level in my career where I can present my life story. Starting out as a baby being left in a crib with premade bottles while my parents went out.....to the point I was taken by the state. I was adopted and log stroy short I struggled with substance abuse issues while working my way up through the ranks of my career. My life has been full if excitement and drama. As a father of 4 with all of my children being born of the same mother which is now my wife. The regular joe needs a good movie to encourage them to not give up and keep pursuing your dreams even in obscurity
I have always loved acting in school and in several smaller plays.
This is so inspiring, after I just got the email from my agent that said my scene for the last episode was cut and I won't be needed this week. I was so hurt but this helps me to know its ok keep moving and keep auditioning
sydney sweeney inspired me so much!! Her performance in Euphoria was just unforgettable. She came originally from a small town and her parent were not rich and she really came from a normal family and it really inspired me to keep my work up and maybe one time i get as famous as she is, who knows :D
My goal is to be on a show and/or movie, that makes people laugh, I don’t have to be the lead role even though it would be nice, I just want to make some people laugh and get some money for my mom.
Why I want to be an actor is because I love the show bunk’d. That is my favorite show of all time I love the way the actors say their lines and express their feelings. People always told me I was a great actor. That inspired me to be an actor. I always wanted to be an actor sience I was 5. 6 years later, I stilll want to be one.
I'm not doing self tapes yet but I will be using my phone when I do. If someone isn't gonna film me on a tripod of course.
I have been subscribing to your channel for 2 months now. I appreciate the good info. Since watching this video, I have been putting your advice into practice, I have gotten more call backs and featured in 2 short movies.
👌😃
i want to be in marvel, disney movies, or anything spectactular.
