WHEN TO MOVE TO LOS ANGELES FOR YOUR ACTING CAREER: MISTAKES PEOPLE HAVE MADE

[@save4thecurls]

I am originally from North Carolina! I am currently based in South Carolina but I get a lot of auditions for Atlanta and North Carolina.

[@NikkoAustenSmith]

ayeee! yes ATL is booming!

[@anishmyfriend]

This came at the perfect time for me! I’m still in NC looking to grow my resume and continue my target research. Though a lot of my network is already in LA, I’m biding my time for the right moment for me. Thanks for the insight!

[@NikkoAustenSmith]

yay! thank you so much for watching! yes, i definitely feel you. i moved here from NC too! ✨

[@NikkoAustenSmith]

I'm based in atlanta and I know the film industry is booming down here. I've acted in a few things , got a agent and been building up my credits. I want to officially make the jump when I get that working actor title. do you think that's a smart idea or should I be preparing to move out there sooner?

[@NikkoAustenSmith]

it’s completely up to you! you can always stay in ATL until you become a big fish in a small pond. chances are, once people know you in ATL (producers, cds, directors, show runners, etc), they’ll be able to help connect you with some LA peeps! plus, you can ask your ATL agent to refer you to LA agents and set up meetings for you before you make them move so you’re already set up with an LA rep.

Hey I love your videos so much they are always helping me and my career, however when i subscribed to your channel and clicked for notifications for when you posted a video i never get any notifications. Do you know why i cant receive your posted notifications for your videos?

[@NikkoAustenSmith]

hi there! thank you so much for watching my videos! ✨ hmmm… i’m not sure! honestly, i don’t receive notifications for people i’m subscribed to either! it just ends up showing up on my homepage or I see a blue bubble in my “subscriptions” tab. very strange! i think there may be a way to change email preferences in settings, so that you’ll be notified by email.

[@lastonestanding6420]

Okay I will definitely look into it! Thank you for responding

Hi! I’m new to acting and also from NC, do you have any tips on where I should go for acting classes?

[@NikkoAustenSmith]

hi there! ✨ yay fellow north carolinian! i think it would be a good idea to audit a class at any studio you are considering. i study at The Margie Haber studio and i LOVE it so much. I’ve also heard great things about the BGB studio.
