Hi everyone, I was in a short film over the summer. I want to add it to my IMDB. It's probably best to check in with the director before doing it myself right? What's a professional way to do so through email?

I've been doing voice work professionally for a few years, and one thing I've been thinking about lately is how to keep performances feeling fresh when you're recording frequently.
