Mark Twain said, “Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life”.
It may not be the regular 9 to 5, but make no mistake, acting is a job! In the same manner, an athlete practices non-stop to stay ready, so too actors spend much of their time in classes and with coaches to keep their acting skills sharp. One major technique that coaches and teachers use is acting games.
Having a talent or a knack for acting would only get you so far. Anyone can stand in front of a camera or a crowd and speak, even if they’re shy. But the goal is to do it effectively. As an actor, your impact comes not only from what you say but more importantly, how you say it. You want your audience to feel what your character felt. Your performance should help them understand your character’s experience, motive, thoughts, etc.
As an actor, you can play a role in anything from a movie to a commercial. If you’re talented enough, you can land a major movie role portraying a prominent historical figure. Examples of these are Malcolm X and Selena. But before that, you must master your craft and put in the hard work! To get into any acting school, especially one like The Playground, requires preparation.
