Fellow LA actor here! 🖐🏽 I really enjoyed this vlog! Looking forward to the next one! ☺️
ayeeee thank you so much! ✨🙌🏾 LA actors unite!
Absolutely love your videos I do have a question so that second audition was that on zoom? And how are you able to sit down and stand up without it looking so awkward? Also, did you pause it while you were on zoom? I’m so confused and I’m so sorry for the silly question. I am still very green and trying to learn as much as I can.
hi! ✨
yes, that audition was on zoom and live so i could no pause it! normally, i have the zoom set up so that i can see myself as well as whoever i’m reading with. i normally take about 5-10 mins before my audition to work out the technicalities of how it looks when i stand or sit. i’ll essentially block the audition on zoom. it’s not awkward if you know exactly why you’re moving your camera and do it confidently! ✨🙌🏾
@@NikkoAustenSmith Would you be willing to do a video on tips for auditions over zoom?Thank you for the feedback🦾
@@Dizzynomads this is a perfect video idea! yes. thank you ✨🙌🏾

@@NikkoAustenSmith thank u so much
Thank you for the video! Do you have to be invited to the screenings? How is the process regarding that?
hi there! ✨ i signed up for screening invitations through the SAG-AFTRA foundation. they send emails about every other day about screening invitations, so you’ve got to RSVP fast or else they fill up!
@@NikkoAustenSmith Thank you! Do you have to be a member of SAG? I appreciate your response. I did research into one of the agencies from your previous video (A3); I did not see any submission links, etc. Lastly, any other tips for LA actresses? I really appreciate you for the millionth time!
I am under the SAG website but cannot seem to figure out how to sign up.
@@Euuugeeena once you go here, you’ll be able to create an account and receive email alerts! ✨

@@Euuugeeena
hi there! ✨ yes, i believe you do have to be a member of sag in order to participate in the SAG Foundation resources.
A3 is referral only, so the only way to get a meeting with them would be if you knew someone who would be able to refer you! that could be a casting director who knows someone at A3, director you’ve worked with who knows someone at A3, etc. most of the bigger agencies are referral only!
and i’ve got TONS of other videos in this playlist that may be helpful to you! ✨👇🏾

hi can i ask you . i ll need acting school? and do you have?
there’s tons of acting classes you can take online! it all depends on what you’re looking for: what type of training you want, in person or zoom classes, etc. i would say do some research on some notable acting classes and teachers in your area! if it’s a reputable studio, they’ll usually let you audit a class so that you can sit in and see how the class is run.
@@NikkoAustenSmith thank you su much
I hope your didn’t buy it because it’s free on Netflix right now !
didnt buy it! :) but thank you! i’ve been wanting to watch it again ✨
Nikko austen Smith do you think and acting agent or a manager is going to hire me because I don't take my hijab off 😂❤❤
hi there! yes i do. it’s so important you stay true to who you are. the right agent or manager will come along for sure! ✨
Nikko thank you i am not scared anymore...... M
Hi! Nikko austen i am a Muslim i live in the Gambia i don't have any friend or family member who live in LA, Chicago Atlanta or even close to American i wonder if i could ever got the opportunity to go to any of these countries if there is a way i want to know and if there is no way let me know please...... 🙏🤔😞😌PLEASE.....
@@Isatou-or2nfhi there! unfortunately i’m not sure how to go about this 😭 but i think just keep trying to do research, and try to get a self tape set up for auditions so you can send in self tapes? i’m not 100% sure how to help international artists. but thank you so much for watching! ✨
Hi nikko is it composer to kiss on que while acting.....
