I didn't expect to see a fellow belgian actor, especially on this channel. Actually motivates me and gives me hope.

Great video! There is an in correction though, you cannot work with B1 visa. B1/B2 visa is for business trips/meetings only. In order to work in the US AND receive payment, you need either F-1 because it comes with CPT and OPT, or H1b or 0-1.

Do it for the craft- if you pursue acting for fame, it won’t go or end well. Ever. Doing it for genuine passion for the art significantly reduces disappointment this career will eventually give you. ❤

[@karabo5641]

Fantastic video Will. I'm based in London coming from South America and I definitely relate with a lot of what's been said ! Keep up the good work!

[@osduargil7229]

I appreciate your dedication for making this video

[@emanueltabone]

As a European/Mediterranean looking to move to LA next year this video is super helpful. Would be great the get some tips on what drama clubs an older actor (38) could join in LA to start building a network and practice the craft without enrolling in a full time course as working is equally a priority as continuously studying. Thanks again for the content and always look forward to the informative video you post.

[@theanthonylee]

this was a brilliant video. I like it a lot. You selected authentic actors who have struggled to find their way. I find it so interesting that it "takes about 5 years to get comfortable in LA; day job, auditioning, home, life, etc". ( PS; in your description Thomas is Netherland? - he is Danish)

[@hm8655]

Thank you for the video, it is such a good thing for anyone who are dreaming about 🇺🇸 🔥

[@koraydervis]

Thank you so much for putting out this unique content. It's been truly eye opening this kind of information is not widely available and definitely not at this quality of delivery

[@WillyDubz]

Thanks! I am happy it helps. I try to take my time.

[@petrusstrydom2073]

I'm from South Africa. And I wanted to do an acting course at NYFA in LA. So I first went for a holiday to check the scene, how expensive would it be to buy food, travel, rent a car, where can I stay, etc. I even stayed in a place available for "long term stay" in Burbank. What I found was it would be too expensive to stay and study - for me. But its good to do an acting course in LA, mix with the crowd etc. and that course looks better on your profile when looking for work in the future, when you have the correct Visa (very important).

[@essi019]

Wooow this is gonna be interesting!! 🤩 cause I don't live in the USA

[@Meltdownie]

Hey! I have a HUGE passion for acting, I am now attending an acting school here in Italy, unfortunately our movie industry hasn’t really developed that well, so my biggest dream would be to move to America and become an actress. I guess I’m pretty fluent in English and I have little to no accent, but I am really really scared directors won’t cast me because I’m not American :/

[@leilaselleri562]

omg im in your same situation but i'm not going to acting school here. in which school are you going? im currently working to pay the american university i want to go to.

[@veronicasmith4504]

This video was really helpful but can you upload a video specifically on the ways how Indians can move to L.A. in order to pursue their dreams.

[@leondean11]

I actually live in the US, California, and want to leave before starting my career. Personally, the cost of living, social climbing variables that make people hard to read, and overall quick pace isn't my thing. I plan on moving to Canada for a more intimate, affordable experience.

[@hinklefamily1831]

Canada has usually a more expensive living cost then most average American homes. (Just thought I'd let ya know as a Canadian

[@leondean11]

Do not violate immigration law, you can really burn yourself. Get an agent in Canada and then properly get offered work in the US

[@kalkalops5471]

being an actress has always been my dream, but im a hijabi and i have strict rules that i must follow, i still have hope tho

[@q.sunshine733]

I’m pretty sure there are a lot of great roles that you could play as hijabi woman and also you should inform yourself more about the industry as a Muslim - I think you should put your strict rules to the side and be able to act freely because that’s the point of being an actor and you got to remember that you’re ACTING so it has nothing to do with you, your personal life or your personal beliefs. Good luck :)

GREAT VIDEO ❤️ As someone with a South African accent who lives in Canada, do you think it’s better to submit reels in a Canadian accent or just my native accent ? That’s where I struggle :/ I think having my accent is unique but obviously it doesn’t match the Canadian / American market... an agent didn’t sign me solely for my accent so I’m a bit traumatized LOL

If you have an accent, you either will play your own ethnicity or non-speaking roles. I think it's easier for Western Europeans though because they are more relatable to Americans. I was literally told by an agent to drop my accent if I want to be in this industry, the agent who of course wouldn't sign me. I have an eastern European accent and the only roles that may ever use it are either spies, hookers, gold diggers, hitmen, or mad scientists. I don't understand why in an immigrant country that promotes diversity so actively an accent is such a big problem if your speech is clear and understandable.
