      I don’t have any tips because I have not started acting yet but I would just like to say that I have always been very shy but have always wanted to act in films and this year I am going to start acting! I am finally getting over my annoying fears and am going to try something that I have always wanted to do. Just know that you are not alone in this journey. Do you have insta? Maybe we could follow each other and keep up with our acting progress.

    Also do school plays count as experience ??
    Also, what if you've done multiple theater productions but haven't gone to an actual acting class?
    Could I still get casted?
    Lastly, can I use this resume for trying to get into a talent agency?
    Sorry about all the questions 😅

    hi hi hi :) I have a really urgent question that I'm hoping you might be able to answer. I'm currently in the process of growing my hair out and the headshots that I currently have (they are unprofessional btw) don't fully reflect what I look like currently. My sides were shaved and they're growing in. I've done a lot with my hair over the years (locs, afro, buzz cut, etc.) and my mom thinks I should submit a collage with pics of all of the looks I've done instead of a single headshot. What do you think about this? I told her I should probably just submit 1-3 photos of what I currently look like, but also I don't know. Any suggestions?
