Allow Greg Apps, Jeff Seymour and Tiffany Lyndall-Knight to guide you through the tumultuous events that shocked the acting world in 2023, including the actor strike in the US and the rising influence of AI in the creative realm.

Imagine a world where artificial intelligence dominates film-making and actors are replaced by CGI counterparts. Sounds like a scene from a dystopian film, right? But this scary future might be closer than you think. This episode delves into the potential implications of AI infiltrating the acting industry, altering the way films are created, and maybe even giving birth to unique new genres. We also touch on the critical matter of residual payments for actors whose images are used in AI productions and the necessity to uphold the value and respect accorded to actors.

But it's not all gloom and doom. There's a silver lining, too. With the advent of AI, casting could see a revolution, simplifying the process for both casting directors and actors. Self-tapes could be the game-changer, helping actors to showcase their best scenes and, potentially, reducing the role of traditional casting. And while we're on the subject of change, we also discuss the impact of streaming services on actors' pay and the challenges they face in this rapidly evolving industry. So ready or not, the future is here, and it's time to adapt and evolve. Tune in to this riveting conversation and prepare for an eye-opening journey through the future of acting.
