There’s also the issue of actors needing to find “readers”: “I cannot do a self-tape on my own. If it's a scene with another person, I have to ask somebody to read with me. This has been going on for years now,” Ramos says. “I've scrambled to ask people left and right — 'Can you put me on tape? Can you put me on tape?'"
