| Question: Where do I start when wanting to get into acting? Posted: 15 Sep 2016 10:45 PM PDT Of course you need acting classes! It's a profession - not a game. Typically, it takes seven years of good-quality training, as well as a lot of stage and film experience before you might be able to get an agent and auditions. Don't worry about where you'd have to go and what to take - you won't need to even consider that for a very, very long time. Basically, to make a start as an actor, you'd need to - Just bear in mind that all that hard work isn't enough - you also need huge talent, dedication, determination, resilience and luck. |
| Posted: 15 Sep 2016 10:18 PM PDT Voice acting is just acting. You'd need the same years of good-quality training and stage experience as any other actor. When you start that training doesn't matter at all. Almost all voice-work goes to fully-trained and very experienced actors - they do the occasional bit of voice-acting just to earn a little extra money in between ordinary acting roles. I mean - think about it. You have a role to fill in a cartoon or commercial or whatever - who do you choose to audition - a kid with no experience or a professional actor with a fantastic résumé showing years at drama school and loads of stage and film experience? |

| Question: Good musical audition songs? Posted: 15 Sep 2016 10:01 PM PDT I am auditioing for footloose and i want to have a somewhat short audition song that shows my vocal range (around both soprano 1 and soprano 2 and maybe even a little below that) and shows my belting skills. I was thinking if Mother Knows Best Reprise from Tangled but it doesn't go very high. My dream role would be Rusty but thats kind of stretching it. Any song suggestions? |
| Question: Advice about acting career? Posted: 15 Sep 2016 09:44 PM PDT Classes are 'Training' - not 'Experience'. And actors need a lot of both. What do you mean by 'two classes'? If you mean just a couple of six-week courses - no, absolutely not! Of course most classes are geared toward theatre - that's real acting. That's what all good acting schools do. It takes, on average, seven years of good-quality training and stage and film experience before any agent would even consider you. Once you're a good stage actor, it's quite easy to transfer those skills to acting to camera. You also need to have a lot of experience on your resume - and that means dozens of leading roles in big community theatre productions, as well as good roles in student films, short films and indies. After all that training and experience, however, you don't 'book jobs'. You hope to get signed by an agent, and that agent will try to find you some auditions. But even then, you'll have to audition against hundreds of other very talented actors. Typically, you'd be unlikely to win more than one or two small roles out of every 100 you get to attend. You really don't seem to know much about acting as a business - a good acting school would teach you all about it. But it takes years of effort - not just a couple of classes - as well as huge talent and a lot of luck. If you can earn money from modelling, do whatever you have to do. But don't ever tell anyone in the acting world about it. Most people in professional acting have no respect for models, so use a different name and keep it quiet! |
