Is being SAG still worth it? Why Candace isn't taking auditions

Jesse Malinowski breaks down the moment he realized a nationally running commercial paid him $3,000 when it should have been closer to $30,000 — and what that means for his SAG membership going forward. On Get Scene Studios' That Actor Couple, Candace opens up about booking out due to injury, and Jesse walks through the exact no-fluff email every actor should send their agent when life gets in the way.

Ask Me Anything Episode: Are You Behind in Your Career?

Jesse and Candace Malinowski get real on Get Scene's That Actor Couple — tackling the TV credit myth that's keeping actors stuck, why asking "am I where I should be?" is the wrong question entirely, and how to actually audition with your partner without it destroying your relationship. Jesse also opens up about an audition he's not sure he should even submit.
