Love your videos. Could you make one on Union vs non union and when an actor/actress should consider joining one/SAG or not? I think there is a lot of confusion out there and I am sure you'd be the best at explaining it.
Great video. What is standard on volume of reader? I’ve been told keep them low volume and also that reader needs to be same as my volume. Many thanks Janet Fogg
Does the reader have to be in the room with you? For my reader, I always use is one of my best friends who is also a professional actress and graduated from a top drama school. But she lives 50 miles from my house so whenever I need a reader I just email her the script and I call her and have her on speaker phone and usually put my phone off to the side beside the camera.
Hi Cody, I am ready to start looking for an acting agent, but I live in San Francisco and want an LA based agent. With the age of self tapes, would an LA agency accept me if I am able to commute to LA for in person auditions when asked?

Perfect self tape tips
Lighting is imp😊
No audible distractions
Blank background
If the phone works for Steven Soderbergh and Kevin Baker, it'll work for a self-tape. Great tips on the reader.

Would a plain background wall that’s like super light blue work or is a back drop necessary?
Any solid, preferably matte, background should work!
Hey can you do a confidence video please and hello from the uk
Local LA kid here and I hear "IT'S NOT THAT SERIOUS, THAT YOU CAN EASILY BUY A MOVO KIT AND BOOK LEADS". I wonder?
