Today it was Snejina and Jen talking about that awkward stage when you feel like you're getting nowhere with bookings. Feel familiar? What to look out for that your agent is doing everything they can. When to jump ship, how long to commit and do you actually love it enough to do something completely for free.

Do you want to be famous or do you want to be an actor. Big difference for both.

We catch up too but there's a goldmine of information there to hold on to a great agent and when the time has come to move on. You may be surprised what you hear.

Have any questions? Email us at actorandagent@gmail.com or through our social media @actorandagent on instagram. We love to hear from you! Especially if there's something you're interested on hearing us cover. We've got vertical soaps, voice demos, guests and more coming - buckle up!

In Actor and Agent podcast, we talk about the industry from both sides as well as being in two different countries. We discuss stories, talk to guests and give tips from our experience.

This week after years of not recording an episode... we are BACK.... AGAIN! We talk about how we've changed these last few years, being mums/moms (depending on where you're from) and how that fits into the industry and a good general catch up on the industry.

We've definitely missed doing this and we do have plans to bring on guests, get back into pulling back the curtain even more. More deep dives on agent side, voice reels, vertical dramas and more.

You can find us on Instagram (@actorandagent) and Facebook. Feel free to DM us to ask questions or if there is anything you'd like us to cover in future episodes.

This week Jen (No Snejina this episode as she's sunning herself - lucky duck!) interviews the lovely Peter Hearn. He's been part of the industry a while, started training as an actor and after trying (what seems like all the hats) his hand at many facets of the industry he's creating his biggest adventure yet.

We talk puppets, sourcing the talent, how his writing process evolves, the wonderful people he works with and the community he creates on every project.

We need your help to share FAR and WIDE! Peter is launching a crowdfunding page to get the project to where it should be. You can sign up for the prelaunch here: https://igg.me/at/frightseers and find out why so many creatives are scrabbling over themselves to be a part in this webseries!

This week we had the pleasure of talking to a multi-talented actress, who is a series regular on When Calls The Heart, Natasha Burnett! We spoke last year (only just getting around to releasing these episodes) during a heatwave in Vancouver and talking through Natasha's experiences.

Born in Surrey, UK, Natasha is a British actress and singer.

She began her career performing in The Magic of Motown Show as Diana Ross (DIANA ROSS!?!) and played the role for four years before moving to Sydney, Australia where she turned her attention to film and TV. She spent the summer training at NIDA. After a year in Australia, Natasha made the move to Vancouver, Canada.

A few of her credits include:
- The Good Doctor
- iZombie
- Supergirl
- Olympus

As well as many, many more. We ask her how she got started, talk The Stage newspaper, the worst job she's had, and being a Brit in Canada.

This week we are joined by an incredibly talented and inspiring young actor... Taylor Lam Wright! It's a mini-episode but such a refreshing listen to hear a child actor's perspective in the early stages of his career. He talks about training, his mindset, his process, and how his parents keep him sharp.

Is voiceover only about doing lots of different accents, impressions and voices? Also, voice-over is easy, right?

We talk about how huge the industry is, the importance of training, and how important your natural voice is. The things you need to have in place to try and get into the industry and get booked.

How casting is now changing within the voice world which is outside of the scope of how your voice sounds.

The difference between the industry in Canada and the UK within the voice world.

Tomorrow... it's voiceover!
