 HOW TO LEARN ACTING

We don't say this to discourage you. If you want to be a movie star, it's not impossible. Shoot for the moon! But be prepared to work for it, because there's no magic formula.

That being said, let's talk about how to learn acting!

What You Should Do

 

• Read plays and books about acting.
  Because just like any other industry, the acting biz has its own terminology, lingo, and mumbo-jumbo. What's an objective? Where is downstage? What's a gobo? If you can speak intelligently about these things, you're one step ahead of the game.

Also, reading plays is a great way to refuel your passion.

• Take acting classes.
  Scene study, voice and speech, movement, stage combat, etc. It's good to have talent, but you have to focus and forge that talent into skill.

And by the way, taking an acting class doesn't have to cost you money. For example, find an acting studio and ask if you can volunteer in their office while you audit their classes.

• Make friends with actors.
  Acting is a community sport. It's rarely, almost never done alone. And one thing actors love to do is talk about their process. Find a few and listen in. (But of course, take it with a grain of salt.)

Volunteer backstage. Local community theatres are always looking for volunteers to help with props, sets, costumes, and so on.

What You Shouldn't Do

• Don't do mailings.
  Actors like to print out hundreds of resumes, and then mail them out to every casting director, agent, and manager in town. Why? Because it makes them feel like they've done something for their career.

But you know better. It's costly, ineffective, and a waste of your time. Better to work on auditions.

• Don't pester the powers that be.
  Directors and producers won't cast you if you blow up their phone and inbox with messages. In fact, that's a great way to get black listed. "Don't cast that guy, he's a stalker!"
• Don't lie about your experience.
  Another great way to get black listed. "Don't cast that guy, he's a lair!"
• Don't alter your appearance.
  One of your best assets as an actor is your unique and individual look. Don't change it based on what others might think.

 Armed with this new information, you know how to learn acting. So get out there, and let your    passion drive you on to great success. Maybe someday you'll be telling others how to get in to acting!
