If you ever thought about an acting career, or just wanted to experience being a part of a film production, understand that it is very possible. This is a great option for someone who already has experience making videos on sites like TikTok or YouTube.
Today we're talking about a site called "Backstage". Backstage works as a marketplace to facilitate casting calls for both small and large productions. You can audition for anything between an independent film school project to a recently greenlit Netflix series.
The best part is that your paid membership gives you unlimited access to submit applications to any of the thousands of roles posted on the site. These applications can include your demo reels and headshots, as Backstage allows you to store these on their platform for easy access. You can even set up notifications to stay informed about the types of roles that you are interested in.
Incase you're skeptical about how legitimate the site is, some big names have gotten some of their earlier roles from Backstage, setting the foundation for a lengthy career. This includes the likes of Chris Evans, Sandra Bullock, or even the Late James Earl Jones.
Understand that if you don't already have anything of a portfolio, this will be an extremely slow grind, and you may want to experiment with your own productions. Just make anything that will accurately display your current acting ability.
If acting isn't your forte, but you still have a love for film, projects still need to fill roles behind the scenes. It is called BACKSTAGE, after. The platform has sections for those seeking work in production, post production, voiceover work and more.
