A Message From The founder

JOHN

I started MY ACTOR LIFE because of the sheer appreciation I have for the life of an actor. I’ve learnt that to pursue any PASSION you will need to make sacrifices. For almost all creatives this means sacraficing your time, your energy and sometimes even the quality of your LIFE in pursuit of your DREAMS.

My wife is an actor. This site is for HER, it is for YOU, it is for all of US.
So that we can all benefit from a little more time in our lives to do the things we LOVE.

OUR PRESENT

Today you can use MY ACTOR LIFE as a opportunity and job tracker, a calendar, an invoice tracker, an appointment manager, a contact manager, an agency measurer and an analytics and reporting tool.

You can also use it as a place to feel inspired, to be enriched with positivity, to be motivated by kindness in a profession that can at times be quite disheartening.

Most of all, use this space as a reminder that you are surrounded by other creative souls and allow yourself to succeed.

OUR FUTURE

We are always enhancing and improving our platform so that we can continue to provide you with an enriching experience.
