Our first shout-out goes to Josh Mermelstein! @Joshua Mermelstein Josh couldn't make tonight's masterclass with Amit Gupta, but he sent us a message with probably the best excuse you can possibly have as an actor — he was on set! We hope you had a fabulous time, Josh. Keep that momentum going. We missed you tonight, but this is exactly the kind of reason we love to hear. And there's another reason I'm giving Josh a shout-out. While looking for his photograph for this post, I came across his website, and I'm going to share it below for everyone to have a look at. This is important. As the industry changes and AI increasingly becomes part of how people and information are discovered online, actors need to think seriously about their digital visibility. Whether that's a strong professional website or eventually a really solid profile URL, make sure that when somebody searches for you, they can find you and immediately understand who you are and what you do. https://www.joshuamermelstein.com/ So well done, Josh. 👏 And to everyone else: share your wins with us. Booked something? Got a recall? Finished a self-tape you're proud of? Updated your showreel? Got new headshots? Made a new industry connection? Tell us. Big or small, a win is a win. Let's celebrate each other's progress and keep building that momentum. 🚀 Tracey & Claire ❤️

We go to great lengths to bring top industry professionals into The Actors Copilot Green Room, because there is enormous value in being able to sit in a room with people who are actually doing the work at the highest level. This Thursday, we have director Amit Gupta, whose credits include His Dark Materials, We Were the Lucky Ones, Avatar: The Last Airbender and Dark Matter. But we need you to apply yourselves and show up. Even seasoned professional actors can learn from a director like Amit. Bring your questions. Listen to how he thinks about actors, performance and the work. Take advantage of having direct access to someone with his experience. And remember, this isn't only about learning. It's also about networking. Amit has projects in development and, like many directors, is closely involved in the casting process alongside casting directors. You genuinely never know when you might be the actor somebody remembers or is looking for. We have opened this masterclass to people outside the Green Room through registration, but as members, I'm going to post the direct masterclass link here in Skool at 6 PM BST tomorrow, Thursday 24 September, one hour before we go live. Masterclass starts: 7 PM BST - That's UK Time! Use the time zone converter tool in Actor Resources! We'd really love to see you there. This is part of what this community is about: access, learning, connection and putting yourself in the room. Bring your questions. Come and meet Amit. And make the most of the opportunity. We look forward to seeing you. Much 💕 Tracey and Claire Lets go do the Real Work
