How to Have the Perfect Self Tape Set Up

[@James.473]

Thank you so much Cody for taking the time to make the video. I'm always struggling to find a reader that has the time to help read for my self tape. I'll utilize the information you gave

[@cdn1588]

Love your videos. Could you make one on Union vs non union and when an actor/actress should consider joining one/SAG or not? I think there is a lot of confusion out there and I am sure you'd be the best at explaining it.

Great video. What is standard on volume of reader? I’ve been told keep them low volume and also that reader needs to be same as my volume. Many thanks Janet Fogg

What’s one thing you guys notice that is a negative about people’s self tapes?

[@ReviewsWithAL_]

What are the best colours to wear for self tapes?

[@SalvadorOlagueOfficial]

Would a plain background wall that’s like super light blue work or is a back drop necessary?

[@Studio24inc]

Any solid, preferably matte, background should work!

Hi Cody, I am ready to start looking for an acting agent, but I live in San Francisco and want an LA based agent. With the age of self tapes, would an LA agency accept me if I am able to commute to LA for in person auditions when asked?

[@dougshaver285]

If the phone works for Steven Soderbergh and Kevin Baker, it'll work for a self-tape. Great tips on the reader.

Local LA kid here and I hear "IT'S NOT THAT SERIOUS, THAT YOU CAN EASILY BUY A MOVO KIT AND BOOK LEADS". I wonder?
