Sides
Here at Berry's Camera Acting, we know that finding material to showcase and practice your craft is a challenging task. Sides handed over when auditioning are always copyrighted, and you cannot share your excellent work with prospective agents and the general public. The same applies to scenes from existing movies. At the same time, scenes from acting books often cringe and so last-century.
At Berry's Camera Acting, we provide non-copyrighted practice and demo sides to all the actors at no charge for non-restricted use. If you produce material based on those sides, you're encouraged to attribute www.bcacting.com, but this is not a requirement. Please get familiar with the Sides Licensing Information.
Below each scene title, you can see a code that describes the nature of the scene and characters:
13F - scene written for a female 13-year-old, should be played by female-identifying talent
12M/F - scene written for a 12-year-old male, but can be adapted to be played by a female-identifying talent
16N - the scene was written for a 16-year non-binary identifying talent
13-15F - the scene written for a female-identifying talent in the age between 13 and 15 years old
C - Comedic scene, light in the topic
D - Dramatic scene, generally discussing a more serious topic
E - Explicit scenes that might not be suitable for younger or more sensitive talent due to profanity and the use of language
