A Virtual Actor can also be a person who performs a role in real-time when logged into a Virtual World or Collaborative On-Line Environment. One who represents, via an avatar, a character in a simulation or training event. One who behaves as if acting a part through the use of an avatar.
Vactor Studio LLC is a New York-based company, but its "Vactors" (virtual actors) are located all across the US and Canada. The Vactors log into virtual world applications from their homes or offices to participate in exercises covering an extensive range of markets including: Medical, Military, First Responder, Corporate, Government, Entertainment, and Retail. Through their own computers, they become doctors, soldiers, EMTs, customer service reps, victims for Mass Casualty Response training, or whatever the demonstration requires. Since 2005, Vactor Studio’s role-players have delivered thousands of hours of professional virtual world demonstrations, training exercises, and event management services.

Famous quotes containing the word business:
“I have said many times, and it is literally true, that there is absolutely nothing that could keep me in business, if my job were simply business to me. The human problems which I deal with every dayconcerning employees as well as customersare the problems that fascinate me, that seem important to me.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892?)
“Your business is not to catch men with show,
With homage to the perishable clay,
But lift them over it, ignore it all,
Make them forget theres such a thing as flesh.
Your business is to paint the souls of men”
—Robert Browning (18121889)
