      ​@@repita21 Acting in itself, be it for theatre or camera is great! It's literally my favourite thing to do. But getting jobs (even unpaid) and making an acting career for yourself is incredibly hard. The business is unfair and a part of whether you succeed or not is based on luck (ie being at the right place at the right time), and rejection is a constant thing. But if you really love your craft, it's all worth it because, at the end of the day, you're doing what you love!

    Acting is a really overwhelming job, especially if you want to make it to the top when you're currently under the sea level because of the country you were born in, anxiety and lack of confidence. Lots of people say it's all about the connections and being in the right place at the right time, well yeah, that matters as well, but I choose to think that hope and really believing in what you're passionate about is so much more important.

      If you wanna be an actor why can you start being in a tv show, it is better if you will start in a tv show so you keep improving!!! Like zendaya she startee being in disney channel series then after that she already became a movies star I'll promise you. All of you will be a Hollywood actor!!! I searched on google that it may take for several years but not many to be a Hollywood actor but at least you will still be the part of hollywood!!! 😍 😊 💖

    so i have no experience in anything. but that’s not going to stop me.
    i am willing to do anything i can to make it and i believe ANYONE can. and i hope you read this far because if you want to make it too, i wanted this to motivate and encourage you.
    because honestly, i have NO IDEA how i am going to get there or how i’m going to make it but like i said i’m not letting anything get in my way.
    keep pursuing your passions even if you don’t know how you’re gonna get there. because i promise you, you can do anything

    • @liquidbraino
      @liquidbraino 4 года назад +3

      I kind of have to agree with you on that one. I know TONS of extremely talented actors that will never be famous. The people that are "famous" only account for about one third of the actors that are paying SAG dues. If by "The rest" you mean getting famous. But if that's how you define success you're mostly likely going to be perpetually miserable. I define success as being able to pay the rent by doing what I love more than anything in the world.

    • @jennifermiller4486
      @jennifermiller4486 4 года назад

      Glad you know what you define as success. So do I and it has ZERO to do with being famous. ZERO. It’s acting in major action films because NOTHING else compares or matters. It’s been that since I was 6. I’m one of those SAG-AFTRA members. A lot of discrimination exists against short people. A LOT. It’s got to change.
