Before Applying

What New England Actor is:
1. A site for professional actors to promote their work and talents, seek work, learn, experience and share their knowledge. Each actor's page needs to reflect their talents and professionalism as an actor, model or voice artist, just like other professional acting web sites.

2. A site for casting directors, companies, directors, agents, etc. to find, review and contact talent.

3. A wholly owned division or subsidiary of CustomersFirst.com Corp. Click here for more information.

New England Actor is not a place for sharing photos, videos, stories, blogs, etc "a la Facebook" that do not help you get hired or called for an audition.

Note: just being in a commercial or movie, especially as background, does not instantly make you an actor and may not be sufficient to join New England Actor.

In most cases, your full name (first & last), is required. Unless you're Bono, Cher, Madonna or Gandhi anyone seeking to hire you will want to know your full name and may even search on it.

Annual Fee: The annual fee is only $10*. If you're approved, an email is sent to the email address you provide (check your spam filters!) indicating any enhancements that are needed for final approval.

• If you live outside of New England the annual fee is $35/year, unless you join or are a member of Big Apple Actors, then the NE Actor fee is only $14.95/year.

When you see the pay-wall upon logging in, use a major CC.

If you do not have a CC you may send a check payable to:
New England Actors c/o
CustomersFirst.com Corp.
PO Box 33
Natick, MA 01760

* full refund within 1-month from date of approval.

** paying the annual fee does not absolve the requirement of a properly formatted profile page.

9) EXPERIENCE: a listing of your noteworthy acting work. Please do not only write "See Resume," "Upon Request" or another Web site, as Casting Directors, producers etc. will not want to spend additional time to see your experience (after writing your experience, you certainly my add a link to your resume or another web site). You may show background work, but just background work, school, church or unknown video productions (i.e. amateur) may not be sufficient. Include production names, directors, dates and your role.

Do not write phrases, sentences or paragraphs and use this format that is easy to read, please copy/paste this into your Experience field and replace the CAPS with your details using proper upper and lower case letters:
Film
"TITLE OF MOVIE HERE"....Role: CHARACTER HERE....YEAR....Dir. NAME OF DIRECTOR.

TV
"TV SHOW HERE"....Role: CHARACTER NAME....YEAR(S)...Dir. NAME OF DIRECTOR

Theater
"PRODUCTION NAME HERE"....Role: CHARACTER NAME....STAGE NAME HERE....Dir. DIRECTOR NAME

Corporate Educationals (Industrials)
COMPANY NAME HERE....Role: CHARACTER HERE....PRODUCTION CO HERE

10) TRAINING - List of any acting classes (name of teacher, casting agent, year taken, etc). This is not a prerequisite, but certainly enhances a submission that is lacking experience.

11) Any other work, charities, events, etc. in which you're involved.Why? shows a little bit more about you and perhaps some film project needs this an actual type of worker or person.

12) Voice Artists Only Field: if you are a Voice Artist you will be required to upload your professionally made demo MP3 to your page, join the Voice Talent Group and add descriptive 1-word characteristics in this field. If you are NOT a professional voice artist or do NOT have a professionally made demo, please leave this field empty.

Please do NOT type in all capital letters. This is considered "yelling" in email and on the web, it also makes it difficult to read for the person visiting your page.
