    I tried but if you wanna go for an audition you have to pay a few hundreds of dollars to even know when and where the auditions will be held. I don`t have comp cards but i do have pro shots of me. I have sooo many ideas for a movie project or even commercials and it seems like i will end up doing it myself if i can`t then it`s another life wasted.

    agree with dynaverse.
    usless. Actors should never look in the mirror, yes you can see what you do but it makes you selfconcious and trying to force out emotion by controlling ur facial expression. Instead you should let the emotion flow and let that evoke ur facial expression.
    This lady doesn’t have a clue what she is doing

    – Theater is a great workout, and I know because I am doing theater itself. And correct me if I’m wrong, but I think there should be courses for acting. I’m not sure. Good luck! And sorry for my bad English, translated the most by googleX)

    Of course as they take the young people, if you are good. Take Daniel Radcliffe as an example, he began his career as Harry Potter when he was only 11-12 years. But you do not have everything in a hurry, for it requires a lot of training. If you are not already practicing in a theater, it’s a testimonials. -

    I`m 30 and i look 24. Always had a sense for humor and just act. I never been on an audition and i`d love to be an actor besides just a musician and so many people told me to try it out cause they could see me in certain roles. Well i gotta try somewhere.
