Thanks again for the excellent tips. Yesterday, Chris submitted an audition video and pretended to eat an ice cream bar because the sides said ".. sitting on a rocky outcropping eating an ice cream bar. Stanley speaks as he he eats." Should we have actually gotten an ice cream bar?

Hey Kurt. I landed the part. Rehearsals went well. Start filming on Friday 🙏☘️💫

Thx Kurt .. This isn't even for "beginners" this is also for people like me that's a seasoned actors but need to remind myself if im getting lazy on my submissions... Keep grinding and hope one day Bruce Willis is gonna make a video saying " This is what it was like working with Kurt Yue" 👍😃

I loved the violin analogy because some of my acting students think they can take one or two acting classes and then will magically get offered the standard rich and famous contract from Netflix or other streaming platforms. Getting an agent is another fallacy that many new actors fall into that I'm glad you covered. As an acting coach - I'm constantly saying AMEN to your words of wisdom!

I’m a Professional Truck driver in my 40’s . I’ve been driving 18 wheelers for 20 years. I want a career change and decided it will be acting. I’m committed to becoming a great actor so Kurt Yue ‘s videos are the first lessons about this industry I’ve came across. Thank you Kurt for these videos ! I Hope to see you on set in the future 😊

I was one of those too quick kind of "career-sprinting" People, but I learned that Experience outranks evereything! Now 7 Months into acting, ive signed with my first Agent! But the last Point really motivated me. No rest when youre winning! Failing really is the quickest way to succeed!

today I went for my 3rd audition, printed photo and resume - my confidence skyrocketed from it by itself. The look on the casting crew faces 😮 2 auditions I was so nervous, today - owned it. It keeps getting better 😍

There's no such thing as a "casting crew". It's called a "casting director".

Since you mentioned not 'pretending' to do things on camera I thought I'd share the time I had to do a spit-take while self taping. I found it much harder than originally thought since I had to 1. Avoid hitting the camera with the mouthful of water I'd sipped. 2. Not choke on said mouthful of water 3. Not *laugh* while performing points 1. and 2. And lastly 4. Properly clean up the area after I was done. Didn't get the gig but did learn how to do a spit-take. Not sure if I should list that on the 'skills' section of my resume though 😉

your second point was so useful to me!! no one has ever mentioned this to me & now that you’ve pointed it out, it’s obvious to NOT pretend for a self tape. as usual, thank you for your expertise 🙏

@@alybadradoumbouya3761 You should audition online for American shows and movies. It's really helpful to have a resume ready and an agent, but you don't have to. I would move to America first, that should probably be the first step. Don't be messy, have everything planned out. You mentioned you're a student, are you over eighteen? If so, moving to America would be the first step. If not, I'd send in online audition tapes. Getting a role won't be easy, so don't be discouraged, Let people in your life know about your dreams. If you get a part, they'll fly you out to the set in the US. Get an acting coach and work for it. Have the right mindset and take baby steps. Lots of love from Wisconsin, USA.

That third point was SUPER helpful to know. I haven’t done any auditions yet but I feel like out of nerves I would’ve abruptly ended my scene after my final scene just wanting it to be over with lol so thanks for this tip.

I started BG here in Atlanta back in 2020 and began acting classes back in August. I just booked my first role on a feature film. It's low budget but I don't care. It's experience and I'm excited!

soo how did it go??

You are honestly so inspirational. Whenever I feel like quitting and focusing on a boring 9-5 career, I watch your vids because you speak so kindly and offer such good information for us beginner actors. I cannot imagine myself feeling fulfilled not being on stage or in front of the camera. It’s always so exciting becoming someone else to play a character. You saying be patient is exactly what I need to remind myself of. All good things take time, and that pic was literally so perfect for my visual mind. Why make things harder for myself? Thanks for all the quality vids. Can’t wait to see you on set someday!

Such a good video! I'm really interested in pursuing acting for film and television when I get older, and these tips are really helpful! The mention about acting in the moments before and after a scene were super insightful! 👍👍

You are so wonderful for sharing this information with us and I appreciate you!

Great video! Also, huge congratulations on all of your achievements!

Thanks Kurt. I’ll correct on my self tapes. You’re a great instructor of knowledge!

This video is SO helpful, thank you Kurt! Looking forward to watching the video you mentioned on getting acting experience. I have a lot of stage experience and enough voiceover gigs to be SAG-AFTRA, but definitely need some more screen time as I prepare to dive back into the LA scene full-time. Hope to see you on set one day too ☺

Thank you! i love your videos and they are so helpful!

Thank you, Kurt, for your advice! It's both educational and inspirational!

Amazing content from the best acting/film channel on this platform. Feels like at this point he’s my personal teacher. Can’t get enough videos, hope to see you on set one day Kurt!

Kurt is so helpful for actors! Thank you for being awesome Kurt! Talent learn so much from you!

Hey Kurt I am loving your videos to the point where I am dying to go to acting classes hoping it’s not to expensive and gets me to my goal slowly but surely

TYSM, Kurt! You’re so helpful no matter what level you are in your career. I appreciate your passing the knowledge. You are an amazing actor.

Your acting advice is always super useful! Started watching your videos last year, and thanks to you I'm already taking acting classes and feeling rlly happy about it, so thank you for everything really!

This is so helpful with the self tape start and finish parts! Thank you!

thanks Kurt, your videos have been so helpful!

I appreciate the last two points where you mentioned trying to advance quickly, and agents. I just graduated from college this past weekend and I’ll be taking your advice!

I really appreciate how simple to execute these are. It makes it much more helpful. Thank you!

Thanks for this. Thanks for helping. I'm going to take this in and apply it

Your first 3 tips really helped! Thank you!

These are some great tips! Thank You!

Kurt, You are amazing! I’m so glad that I started following you. Your KZread videos on acting helps us tremendously. When I think of a question, and do the research your content pops up. Please continue keeping the acting community prepared, focused and ready. 🎬🙌🏾

Thank you so much Kurt for this teaching.

This is really helpful.. I'm exactly at this stage..I'm going to go back and work on my craft to gain that credibility. Thank Kurt

I recently got started in acting of sorts because of a new job, and learning about the industry has been so fascinating yet so overwhelming. I stumbled across this video and I'm SO glad I did. Your advice grounded me and reassured me to just have fun and see where you can go. Thank you for this!

You are awesome! So glad I came across your channel!☺️

Thank you so much, you giving exactly the information I need at the moment.

great advice... and applies to many different types of work.

Es un excelente consejo que nos das Kurt. Todo se gana con paciencia y sabiduría. Gracias por compartir tus experiencias en tus videos. ✨💛🇵🇪 Saludos desde Peru.

Your videos are awesome man. Thanks for helping beginner actors like me.

I've been doing tiny steps since I started, and sometimes is hard to keep the rithm, but you have to stay focused in those small objectives to achieve the bigger goals. I have sixteen and it's difficult to imagine acting as a profession but I still believe in myself an so I try every day.

Thank you Kurt, I genuinely do hope to see you on set one day!

Great advice Kurt Yue, thank you. 🙂👍

Thank you!!! Not exactly “new” but appreciate your insight and direction

Thank you so much. I was asked by a director to read for 2 parts post" tell me about yourself "interview . I didn't land the parts, but now I realize why, thanks to your video.

I really appreciated your discussion about not taking things too fast. True story here. My friend encouraged me to audition for a one act festival and I got a part!! *Buuut*, there really are some differences between acting on stage vs screen, lol. I thought I was going to run off stage screaming because I felt my first rehearsal was so bad, LOL!! I felt pretty discombobulated! However, the thought dawned on me that perhaps I should be making use of the training I’ve been getting from classes and your videos? :-p Anyhow, I am really enjoying this experience and have learned a lot about *patience*! Thank you as always for your videos and invaluable advice!

Great video as always Kurt!

Thanks for the advice!

thanks for your advices, they are quote clear !!

SO HELPFUL!!! THANK YOU

Thanks for the advice Kurt

Totally agree, great video! 😊 👏 I'm going to move to a bigger city soon for hopefully more acting opportunities. But as you said it take's time. I thought so too I need to have an agent, it's great to have but I've booked without having one as well.

Hi Kurt, I just turned 60 and have been in 3 movies each subsequent movie I have had bigger and better roles. I did not know about step 3, although it made sense to me to do that step. Thank you pointing out the 2 business tips. I appreciate all your videos

You advices are very helpful. Thanks a lot.

Thanks Kurt! Your videos always inspire me. Hi from Italy :)

Kurt I always feel like you are speaking directly to me in these videos 😂 great advice like always. "it's a marathon, not a sprint" 🙌🏾

Very helpful and thought out. Thank you

Needed this today.

Just saw you in the Jerry and Marge go large trailer. Kurt you're really going places!!! Hope to see you on set no doubt🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Excellent helpful tips Kurt🙏

Good tips! I like the one about making sure you have a moment before and after your audition and not just to start and finish abruptly.

Giving yourself an activity can help with this (kind of like an "independent activity" in an acting class). In it's simplest form it's just something to help get you focused before you begin the actual scene but it also helps with the expression within the scene. Even something as simple as putting on a tie or cleaning a table can add life to a scene because if your character is angry that's going to come out in *how* you clean the table. A perfect example: the scene from Raider of the Lost Ark where Indiana Jones first arrives at the bar in Napal and technically you could say that he has a "door' and she has an "activity". He has a problem; she's the only solution to his problem but she's doing something - watch HOW she does what she's doing when she says the line "Well say it again anyway!!!!".

Thank you. I'm working on my 17th show. Your advise is spot on with what other credible actors have told me. I Just turned down an offer for a 3 year talent agreement with an agent. It's the best thing I've done for my career.

Great stuff!

Thank you Kurt!

Thanks 🙏🏾 Kurt Great 👍🏾 tips

Kurt! Just saw you in Young Rock. Nice work as always 😬🔥🙌🏻

I do my own short films and been studying my so called acting and some the scenes are believable but others are not. The tip you said about when your lines end you should continue on performing, is going to help me in the future. thank you for these free tips.

The small steps are more important than the big ones because if your first step is in the wrong direction then you're already starting out on the wrong path and you'll never reach your intended destination. Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.

Any new videos coming up anytime soon? I appreciate all the valuable information you've shared so far about the filming industry.

Thanks for the video, Kurt. Very informative. Would you recommend this type of recording tools when mixing in some voice over auditions? Of course, video may not be necessary but the microphone sounds superb.
