On the Come Up with Kimberly Sanchez
The Realities of Being a Working Actor
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You can be talented and still lose roles for reasons you'll never hear out loud, so we decided to talk about the parts of acting nobody puts on their highlight reel.
Livi Bee is back, and after some fun conversation, we dive into the realities of being a working actor. We discuss self-tape auditions, slating, positioning yourself as a local hire, and the small details that can influence casting decisions. We also talk about rejection in the industry, including the disappointment of booking a role only to have it taken away.
The conversation then shifts to motivation and mental health. We discuss procrastination, self-doubt, depression, building confidence, and staying focused when opportunities don't come as quickly as you'd like. If you're an actor, model, or creator looking for practical audition advice and honest industry insight, this episode is for you.
