- Why a $150 Vertical Beats a $300 Acting Class, and Atlanta Just Leveled Up
Candace Malinowski breaks down filming a $150-a-day vertical with 36 pages of dialogue, a bare-bones crew, and no intimacy coordinator, and explains why it did more for her than a $300 acting class. Get Scene Studios founder Jesse Malinowski also explains why The Challenger and Buck prove Atlanta is no longer a co-star market.
34 min - Self-Tape Wrestling Rug Burn, Mustache Hack, Jesse Fan Girls Over Cobra Kai
Jesse and Candace Malinowski are back after the Get Scene Virtual Actor Summit, where Jesse finally landed Cobra Kai's Billy Zabka after reaching out across four different events, and what happened when Billy's 30 minutes ran out surprised everyone. They also break down 6 auditions in two weeks, Candace's self-tape wrestling rug burn, a brow gel mustache hack, and why so many Atlanta actors are suddenly landing major recurring roles.
23 min - The Real Reason You're Not Booking Has Nothing to Do With Your Tape
Jesse Malinowski went into a table read for the film Golf Trip knowing he probably didn't book the host role — but what casting director Kimberly told him afterward completely changed how he thinks about losing auditions. Jesse and Candace also break down when to follow up with a production that's going silent on you, why being the real-life version of your character doesn't guarantee you the job, and the one mindset trap that makes actors quit too early.

45 min - RJ Decker Avails, Backstage Test & Acting Community Secret
Jesse and Candace get into the full audition report — including six avail checks with no booking on RJ Decker, a live Zoom Netflix audition squeezed between dog agility runs, and Candace's decision to intentionally book a $150 vertical just to bring back the real story. They also break down why Candace tested Backstage.com for the first time since 2014, and why the biggest thing holding actors back might be who they're not asking for help. New episodes of Get Scene Unscripted and Talent Agent Talk drop weekly on the Get Scene Studios network.
50 min - 7 Auditions in One Day, SAG Rule Drama & Candace's Lifetime Movie Confession
Jesse and Candace Malinowski pull back the curtain on a week where they knocked out 10 auditions, debated whether any working actor actually follows SAG's 48-hour self-tape rule, and got real about the one on-set skill Candace still hasn't fully cracked: crying on camera. Get Scene Studios produces three shows a week for working actors — subscribe so you never miss an episode of That Actor Couple, Get Scene Unscripted, and Talent Agent Talk.

38 min - First Commercial Conflict, On-Set Makeup, Jesse's 10 Lbs
Jesse Malinowski lost 10 pounds in 14 days without cutting calories, booked his first real commercial conflict after 15 years of avoiding them (and it pays holding fees through 2028), while Candace breaks down the exact on-set strategy she uses so she never walks out of hair and makeup looking bad again. Get Scene's That Actor Couple covers the industry lessons that don't show up in acting class, from how commercial conflicts actually work to why staying quiet in the makeup chair is costing you footage you'll hate.

42 min - Using AI Headshots, Audition Or Decline, Too Many Instructions?
Jesse and Candace Malinowski break down their week of NDA auditions, including why Jesse turned one down, their friend booking a recurring guest star from just two lines, and Candace submitting herself for featured background on a major project. Plus, the AI headshot debate: when is it okay to use AI on your headshots, and when does it cross the line? Jesse and Candace share what's working, what's not, and the one thing that beats out more competition than your acting ability. New episodes of That Actor Couple.

45 min - ReelShort Left Atlanta, Fake AI Actresses, The Tape I Almost Skipped
Jesse and Candace Malinowski break down ReelShort officially pulling out of Atlanta, why your breakdowns have gone quiet, and the deeply strange AI "actress" reels the platform is now posting as if nobody would notice.

40 min - Your Agent Isn't the Problem, the Hipster Headshot Is Dead, 14 Auditions in July
Jesse and Candace Malinowski break down why actors keep blaming their agents and headshots when the real answer is that no role was written for them, why the hipster headshot that everyone had in 2016 is officially dead, and what replaced it. Jesse also explains why the standard advice to repeat your self-tape at the callback falls apart when your tape had lighting cues, sound effects, and food in it, plus how a dead-slow June turned into 14 auditions in July. That Actor Couple gives working actors in Atlanta and the Southeast the real behind-the-scenes of a two-actor marriage, from Get Scene Studios.
