Oscar Prep’s Back!
Jim Carrey tweeted just the text alone, without the photo, on Twitter. It’s funnier that way, so I suggest reading his words which I arrowed so you can tell! (Jim Carrey knows how to devise a joke, uh, as you know. Watch how he unfolds it, here.)
Tech hell! Tech Hell! Just happened again! Even when publishing this Jon Hamm (substitute) post!
I am so outa here. Latah….
Kinda Like Improv, Dontcha Think…? Video clip from JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE. Recommended on Twitter by @RedHourBen… Who is also on Hollywood Actor Prep, giving an Acting Advice 1 Liner (link). (If you don’t already know, I am @__dana__ on Twitter, and that’s a link to my page there, too.) Best, Dana Please do share, …and, [...]
Link to a very funny rotating CHARLIE SHEEN BLOCK screensaver. Quote: ‘Sorry Charlie, but it is time to leave the Internet and go back to your porn family. Let this be the hangover cure for the #winning buzz from which everyone is still recovering.’ [Got some personal issues with people like him, so like this. I do.]
Jesse Eisenberg Was My Top Choice For The Best Leading Actor Academy Award® …So… therefore, I kid because I love (his acting ability)… There’s a commercial which about which I am making a repugnant face right now. Some of that’s just because I’m tired from the AcadAw’s, and some of it’s because there’s a [...]
If You’ve Ever Complained About Having To Memorize Lines…Believe me, teleprompters are harder. You have to keep up with the speed; make it look like you aren’t reading, make it look real…
Here’s Anne Hathaway practicing for her Oscar® hosting gig:
Video of Facebook’s surprise appearance on SNL. Academy Award nominated actor Jesse Eisenberg was hosting the show, while sharing the stage with Andy Samberg (impersonating Mark Zuckerberg!)
Beside his comic brilliance, that is, there is something to mention about Paul Reubens, the actor who invented and plays the character, PeeWee Herman…(with VIDEO OF SNL DIGITAL SHORT W ANDY SAMBERG)
Why Might These Videos Have Value For Actors?
1. One of the most valuable things to do is to laugh. That’s my opinion.
2. It’s also a gift to be able to make people laugh. Funny Or Die has contributions some of the funniest actors and comedians.
2. Original Web Material. That looks…
Academy Award Winning Actor, Ben Kingsley, Acted Like He, Too, Wanted To Be Noticed By Michael Bay……Whether or not there was a role for him, or even one available. Just like Heidi Montag.
(Remember her on camera audition, here, at Hollywood Actor Prep? If you didn’t see it already, that’s a link!)
This guest actor “ACTUALLY READ THE PROPOSED CONSTITUTION”, with an expert attorney.
Laura writes about some of the worst that’s in the ‘fine print’…and what’s NOT THERE?
Guest Acting Post by Edoardo Ballerini…His most recognizable television acting credits are “The Sopranos” and currently, “Boardwalk Empire”…amongst others…For Hollywood Actor Prep, he wrote about what his actor’s journey has been, so far, along his path of creating an acting career, and working as a professional.
This breaking-into-acting experience is a triumphant story. From an actress on ‘Outsourced’, on NBC. She went to an Open Call Audition, for TV extras…Wound up a ongoing character on the show.
This actress and guest blogger writes that she got teary. So did I.
About breaking into acting, about making success in the acting profession. The next post of LA Actor, Robert Wu, will not only inspire actors of Asian, or other specific types…this actor’s guest post will inspire all actors.
When I met this Texas actor on Twitter, and I learned he lived in Austin; I was stoked. I’d been to Austin on a roadtrip back in my college days, where I had a wild weekend of live music…Many LA actors that originally come from Texas; buy an additional home there, after they start to make some real acting bucks. Directors like Robert Rodriguez and Richard Linklater live there…
Graciously, Hal Linden Said A Few Things When I Told Him About My Acting Community …Of actors, that subscribe to Hollywood Actor Prep. Advice on trouble with a professional acting career.
One of the things that they have developed is a way to get actors ready for award show season. They have specific exercises for posture, and teach how to stand when on the red carpet. I went and filmed them talking about it.
I Would Be Posting Here On Hollywood Actor Prep:
My exclusive little truthful tale of how an actress secured herself the lead in one of his movies. Graham King’s a ‘prolific producer’; he’s got four films in post-production, right now.
He’s Martin Scorcese’s producing partner…yesterday, too brought him a brand new deal with Sony.

Erma Bombeck was a newspaper columnist. I read this near the beginning of my career. Something about acting, choosing to pursue it, wholly, after the love and passion of it chooses you well before… It seems to be just about as fully alive as anyone can feel. Can be. Here’s Erma Bombeck’s lifefull, and wistful [...]
But… if you are going around doing measly auditions that aren’t really going to highlight you and that no one is going to come to, or uccch, not even hire you for; or you’re spending all your time doing extra work, or worse: paying dues at the unions and barely making rent and not getting any decent auditions…Don’t. Prioritize, to maximize, the priorities, first. The ones that will amount…

love it! I’ve always been a “quote person” but since pursuing acting I literally live for the inspirational word or two, or maybe just for the comfort of knowing i’m not alone ;-)
I literally have a quote on the bathroom mirror, on my front door for when i leave out, i have em all over my vision board, these lil one liners go along way, so thanx again for addressing, in your most effortless of manners, our day to day…
“The proof is in the sacrifice”
