FAQ

Why do actors get blacklisted in the first place?

An actor is more likely to get rejected than a writer. If you're an actor, you'll probably get rejected a lot. It doesn't matter, because you will eventually find someone you love.

Actors are typically very talented and can earn a living virtually anywhere. But most actors don't want to make a lot of money. Actors love to act and tell stories. It's likely that you will be acting if your passion is acting.

Sometimes, auditions are cancelled because you are either too young or too old for the job. You might also lose your audition for a film role. It happens all too often.

You may be criticised once your casting is complete. Some people will say that you look awful or shouldn't wear makeup. If you're lucky, you won't even hear negative comments.

Sometimes it's because you play a character that's not realistic or authentic. You might play a gay man and everyone assumes that you are straight. Maybe you are a woman who is tough but cries often.

Or maybe you're asked to change your voice. Sometimes they ask for you to sound like a male or female. They will usually ask you to sound better.

These criticisms should be ignored. Actors sometimes feel like failures when they hear they were wrong. However, they aren't doing anything wrong.

They just weren't born with the talent that made them famous. They may not fit the bill sometimes, no mater how hard they try.

Blacklisting can happen for many reasons. Some people don't like actors. Others think actors can be lazy. Still, others say that actors are cheaters.

No matter what the reason, you won't be blacklisted if your persistence persists. There are many roles available, and you will find them.

Keep trying and you will eventually succeed.


What dark secrets can Hollywood keep from you?

Hollywood is full of secret societies. Many secret societies are cult-like and follow rigid rules. Others are just clubs for people with common interests.

Some of the most powerful organizations in the industry are even more dangerous. There are companies like the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), who sets film ratings and the RIAA, which sets music licensing fees.

Many unions and guilds represent actors, directors writers, producers, and others. Large corporations own most major studios and networks of television.

It doesn't matter how secretive a group might seem, someone somewhere knows what they are doing. But that doesn't mean we should fear them.

Instead, we should embrace and celebrate them. Because they provide us with information that helps us make better decisions.

They also tell us about the movies that are most likely to succeed and which songs are most popular.

These help us to decide what we'll watch, read, listen, and buy.

We can trust them so we can ignore their advice when it doesn't suit our taste.

They become more powerful because we choose to ignore them. They are the ultimate judges of taste.

They can be ignored if you don’t like what they have to say.

Let's take a closer look at some of the less-known, yet still very real Hollywood secret clubs.

Observe why they are important.


What is the most secretive place in the world, and why?

This question might surprise you. It could even make you uncomfortable, because it challenges how reality is perceived and lived. But there is a reason that this place exists. It isn't what you would expect.

The City of God was its name by the ancient Greeks. It was called the City of Destruction by the Bible.

In India, it's called Kashi (Kashmir). It's also known as Novgorod in Russia.

However, in America it is called The Town that Disappeared.

One small New York State town with just 1,200 people vanished. A road sign pointing to the former location of the town was all that was left, except for a few bodies and cars.

This little community vanished and no trace remains to indicate where or when it disappeared. Some say the earth swallowed it up. Others believe it was destroyed by a meteorite. Still, others say aliens took it away.

Regardless of what happened, residents of this once-thriving town are certain that their town won't be forgotten forever. They had just moved from one town to the other.

There is even a website dedicated to tracking the disappearance of the lost city of Zugspitz.

So where is this town? Well, it's in Switzerland!

Zugspitze is situated on the border between Germany und Austria. Just beyond the summit of the mountain is a huge lake called Lake Zugspitze.

It has always fascinated and astonished me to see how many towns have vanished but still exist. Why is it that some disappear while others live on? I decided that I would investigate.

I wanted to learn more about mysteriously disappearing towns. Is it possible for a place to vanish? How can one place vanish from existence?

There are many theories to explain the phenomenon of disappearing towns. One theory states that a town vanishes when all its buildings are destroyed. Another theory suggests that the town simply moves somewhere else. Another theory suggests that the town has never existed.

The fact is that hundreds of towns all over the world have been swept away by the ground, despite theories to the contrary. This video explores the history of these towns and examines their current state.


What is the most mysterious area on earth?

Antarctica is the world's most mysterious place on Earth.

We find this place so fascinating. Because it is unlike anything else on Earth.

It is remote, isolated, and extremely difficult to visit. However, there's more to this location than meets the eye.

Some of the most bizarre wildlife species can also be found in this natural wonder.

So let's explore how this remarkable destination became famous for its mystery.

Antarctica, The South Pole

Antarctica is not known by anyone. Others believe it means "land with ice". Others believe it comes out of Greek mythology.

In ancient Greece, Antarktis was the name given to the island where Zeus' twin brothers were born. According to legend, one of the twins was born in winter. The term antarctic is derived from this.

Others believe the name was derived from the Greek words tropos, which means turn, and anti, meaning against. This would be land turned away form the sun.

No matter the reason, Antarctica is a place that has always fascinated people.

It is the driest, windiest of all continents. Because it is so cold, there aren't any trees, plants or animals.

Yet, this frozen wasteland is alive.

Here are about 90% of all the living creatures on Earth. It is home to approximately half of all world's animal and plant species.

And what makes Antarctica such a unique environment? Here, water freezes in ice rather that vaporizing into the atmosphere.

This creates large masses of ice that float above the ground.

These floating glaciers cover 80% of the continent. They continue to grow in size each year.

The Antarctic ice sheet has grown 60ft since 1960.

If the melting continues, the sea level will rise by up to 200 feet. This could lead worldwide flooding.

However, not all scientists believe this to be bad news. Global warming may be beneficial for some scientists. They claim that the melting of ice sheets could accelerate as temperatures rise. This would lead to flooding that removes tons of toxic chemicals and soil from our bodies.

Others, however, warn that this theory sounds almost like a plot for a science fiction film.
