Thank you so much, Belgica! Very helpful video 👌
You're welcome, Yoli. 😊
Hi loved the video! I’m new to backstage and I’m not sure what exact videos I should be uploading on my reel. I haven’t done any professional work, so should I be uploading monologues?
Hi Cludia :) I have a few videos about this. Here is a video on what a demo reel is ua-cam.com/video/WvT1mGu5_Kk/v-deo.html
Here is a video where I made a small DIY Reel ua-cam.com/video/j7KyWYvR8g0/v-deo.html
Can You Submit a Monologue Instead of a Reel? ua-cam.com/video/YLQp9XfWzIU/v-deo.html
What do you say on your video reel though? Do you introduce yourself or act out a script from any scene?
I have some videos that will help 🤗

You're welcome! Let me know if you have any other questions. :)
Hello 👋🏽
So if I don’t have a reel and I want to submit to films that require one, can I just make a self tape based off the type for that character I’m submitting for? Would that work just as well?
Yeah, this would work while you get started on getting a reel together.
What agency are you with, I’m trying to submit myself to some different agencies!
Hi there, I'm SF Bay, I'm with Marla Dell Talent but they only rep me in that region. I don't have rep anywhere else yet.
Thank you 😊
Great job do I need to put clip of me reciting a monologue this agent I'm talking to says they want a scene not monologue, because I'm trying to figure out which monologue to use for auditioning
If they are requesting a scene, I'd follow their instructions. ☺️
You are very beautiful ❤️❤️✔️✔️
Thanks 👍😊
Hi Bélgica 😄
Hello 😊👋
What is it you say for your audio file seem I can't find a answer for that.
Thanks
An audio file would be an MP3 file usually and it is a recording of your voice.
@@BelgicaPaola ok thank another thing what do I say exactly like my name or ?
My name is Jesus Mitchell I am an Actor in West Virginia on backstage what is a Audio file for.
Hello 😊 an audio file is for voice over auditions.
@@BelgicaPaola What is a voice over still learning.
Voice acting 😊
What is a “prescreen”?
Hello 😃 in what context? Some people use "prescreen" to mean audition.
@@BelgicaPaola It’s a requirement to apply as a background extra role. I am new to this, so I have no idea what that is. I can’t anything that explains what it is
Hmm... I imagine it is a conversation they want to have with you to make sure you are chill and actually look like your photos. I suggest contacting them or look at their FAQ's.
If I'm from the uk and I go to america for holiday for 4 months can I get a agent there and get roles during my holiday there
Hi there, you would have to have legal permission to work. And if that's your plan, you should do research on the specific agents you are interested and contact them in advanced. Four months is not very long, I'm not sure how they would react to rep for such a short period. 🤔
Hi, I really like your efforts you put in making your videos. I just wanted to tell you, do you want me to help you with your UA-cam journey. Please let me know, i will help you to make your videos, premium thumbnail, UA-cam channel Art, etc.
If you are serious about your decision and willing to know more, please reply, I will help you out.
I appreciate your offer but I do not wish to get assistance with my channel. I enjoy doing all of the work myself. :)
@@BelgicaPaola That's great, you keep the good work going, rest is the history. Good wishes for you 😊
Thank you 😊
@@BelgicaPaola 😊
how about audio?
Hey! Depending on what you want to submit for, you can make a clip of your voice. Heres how I did it a few years ago.

@@BelgicaPaola thank you so much! I recently subscribed to backstage. I applied for student film.
They asked for headshot/ photo and voice or reel video.
I’m just getting into this career.
I’m looking forward to get some jobs to pay for headshots and classes.
Your videos about backstage helps a lot.
Thank you for your input.
@@BelgicaPaola by the way this is not voice over though. Is ok if I just introduce myself and what I am auditioning for ?
Thanks
Oh, if it's not for a voiceover job, I wouldn't send an audio file. They asked for VO? I'm confused lol
@@BelgicaPaola they ask for audio or reel video. I send the voice introducing myself and the role I was applying for. Not sure if I did it right ?
