Question: How can I start acting!? I'm 13!?
I want to start acting (like on TV and commercials, I don't really mind stage acting, but I prefer this) but I don't know where to start!? I'm 13 and Chinese, but I don't really live in Los Angeles or anything!.!.!. Any tips to get started!?
I have always been fascinated (ever since I watched my first movie at a movie theater which!.!.!. was when I was like 10 or so, I know, crazy right!?) by how characters in movie can act!. I'm also sort of shy, but I am working on it, and I would like to know if I could try!? Is there any online site to help me!? Thanks a LOT! =)Www@QuestionHome@Com
