Jesse Malinowski goes across the pond on Get Scene Unscripted with London acting coach Natalia, whose credits include Black Mirror and FBI: International, to unpack what she saw while interning for a top UK casting director and how it pushed her self-tape booking ratio to 1 in 4. She breaks down the one-light self-tape setup any actor can build, why your demo reel should be built from 10-second clips, and the mindset shift that let her book Black Mirror without riding the highs and lows.Join Our Newsletter:https://getscenestudios.us7.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=7660af20fdb3c04d6b6516591&id=eecb804958Join our Patreon!⁠https://www.patreon.com/cw/GetScenePod⁠Actor Games Promo Code: GAMEPOD https://www.getscenestudios.com/getsceneonline/auditionbootcamp-3tr4y

Jesse Malinowski reunites with Get Scene Studios co-founder Ilan Muallem, who booked five of six episodes of Marvel's Loki and was nearly cast as Jesus on The Walking Dead, only to find the reality on set looked nothing like the promise. On this Get Scene Unscripted, they get into why your identity can't be acting, how he built a watch brand and a martial arts channel into real income, and why he thinks actors angry about AI are ignoring the crew they always said they needed.

ReelShort casting director and Golden Artists Entertainment manager Dante Rusciolelli joins Jesse Malinowski on Get Scene Unscripted to explain why he believes SAG-AFTRA is setting itself up to fail, from a health insurance threshold most members never hit to residuals that still go missing 15 years into streaming. Plus the truth about going Fi-Core, a $790 commercial contract that changed the Georgia market, and why Dante says actors and writers, not tech, are the real inventors of AI, only from Get Scene Studios.

Jesse Malinowski went behind the scenes of the Virtual Actors Summit — including a Wi-Fi meltdown mid-livestream — and pulled two lessons that apply directly to your acting career. Casting director Amanda from Bream Doyle Casting (Chad Powers) told the room that actors should be able to run their own business however they want, and Jesse breaks down exactly why he ignored conventional headshot advice to land his first audition from a new casting director and book a recurring guest star on Mayor of Kingstown (Paramount+).

Jesse Malinowski sits down with Aligned Stars agent Barbara Divisek an agent with over 50 years in the industry — to expose the exact reasons actors stall out on a roster and land on drop lists. From the self-tape habits that quietly kill careers to the local hire rules most actors don't know exist, Barbara pulls back the curtain on how agents actually decide who to fight for on Get Scene Unscripted.Join Our Newsletter:https://getscenestudios.us7.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=7660af20fdb3c04d6b6516591&id=eecb804958Join our Patreon!⁠https://www.patreon.com/cw/GetScenePod⁠Get Your Ticket For Our Virtual Summit!https://www.getscenestudios.com/virtual-actors-summit

Jesse Malinowski sits down with Stephen Cofield Jr. — 70+ credits, FBI Most Wanted, Terrifier 3, The Equalizer — to get into the real business of a working actor in New York City, including the mixer where Stephen almost confronted a casting director and what she actually said when he got to the front of the line. On Get Scene Unscripted, Stephen breaks down how he lost a role to Michael B. Jordan, what it's really like to get your scene cut on set, why Broadway is the one credit still missing from his resume, and the mindset shift that separates actors who last from actors who burn out.Join Our Newsletter:https://getscenestudios.us7.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=7660af20fdb3c04d6b6516591&id=eecb804958Join our Patreon!⁠https://www.patreon.com/cw/GetScenePod⁠Get Your Ticket For Our Virtual Summit!https://www.getscenestudios.com/virtual-actors-summit
