Want to practice acting but worried about my parents hearing me and making fun of me lol Edit: YOO I DID IT. I joined the theater department and I LOVE IT, there’s a lot of great people, we did Anne of Green Gables and now we’re doing a musical, it’s Cinderella. I was Ensemble both times but that’s ok, got to start somewhere, and I already have a bunch of new friends. Everyone is so motivating and positive and friendly and creative

I want to start acting so badly, but I'm scared that I'm too late bc I hear that really successful actors have started really young. I have big dreams of performing Shakespeare and other big dramatic roles, and also comedic roles (tbh I just want to be able to tackle any and every role) but I feel like the way I say and act out the lines are robotic and bad. Is it still possible for anyone of any age to learn to act? I'm 15 btw

[@BelgicaPaola]

15? No, you are not "too old". In my perspective, you should enjoy your childhood and treat acting like any other career, get educated, do research on how to be successful financially and mentally. If you aren't good now, it's because you probably don't have training so that's where you should start. You can start learning now and take it from there. Feel free to check out the playlists on my channel as I have videos about acting classes and acting exercises like this one. :)

Some big actors started late. Life experience can help you work with emotions and use them to draw off. Just think of your life as acting experience as you go through it.

[@armanibrown9766]

the best exercise is to find out your technique and read any books that are there. learn basics if not already learned and do exercises in that book. Write down results to every exercise

Hi Rhianna, I know it can be hard for some people to accept you choosing to be an actor because it is very hard to make a full income from it. If you are under 18, you will need to have to have your parent's permission when you find any auditions. I have lots of videos on how I find auditions now and how I have in the past. I also just posted a video where I talk about everything I know about choosing a casting website. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKqUqX5omKxgg9U

[@choosyapplepickerproductio3594]

These were great exercises. I love the focus on experiencing your own life and response to situations and then tuning into that when you are doing a scene instead of trying to copy someone else’s style. Also I love the neutral line exercise. I think it would be really cool to have prompts like the neutral line and see a lot of different actors performing it, to really see all the range one can achieve with it. Great video, concise and informative and you just seem like a nice likable person.

[@BelgicaPaola]

Of course! So happy to know you are getting something out of my videos. 💖 If you want to make it a career, I don't think any age is too late, you just have to do a lot of research and see if it is doable where you live or if you need to be closer to a different acting market and find your way in.

I’ve been into acting for a few months now and seeing my idles as actors really made it become my life goal and purpose. I’m rlly into marvel and action movies, comedy, and rlly any genre. I just turned 15 and have been doing tons of research. I want to take acting classes so I could learn technique because I know that’s what a lot of actors did as children. Im hoping there’s a way to take acting classes without doing theatre and all of that. I really feel that I have some of it in me but I just have to get a few things on track. (Facial expressions, hand gestures, etc.) I’m really looking forward into the future because it’s GOING TO HAPPEN. I pray every night for God to help me chase and achieve my dreams and he’s proven me that he can do that. I’m confident in myself and what I can become. Ps. Sorry for the booklong paragraph, I thought it would be a great time to express myself even a year later cus I see a lot of people doing so. Anyways, see y’all up there!

Just want to let you know it’s really hard to hear you. I tried to turn it up but it’s all the way up. Maybe a mic to help us hear you better. Love ❤️ your channel!!

[@BelgicaPaola]

Thanks :) I have since made sure my audio levels are better. Check out one of my newer videos and let me know if it sounds good. :)

Ive just starter taking an interest in acting but im terrible at it, so im trying to teach myself just to see how it goes

[@BelgicaPaola]

I think we all start not so great at anything. With time, if you enjoy it, you will get better. Have you read any books on technique? I can recommend some and other ways to practice. 😊

@@BelgicaPaola Im still looking for a good one to get, as im still young i dont want to waist money on one that would turn out to be horrible😅

[@sebastianjacome9759]

You look super funny when you were pretending to hide something. Thanks for the exercises. I usually record myself and laugh about me because I feel I am more towards the comedic side than drama. I am also looking for acting classes aroung my area, there are so a many, I don't know which one to choose. I saw your video of how to choose an Acting class. I found a list of acting school in Backstage, maybe that could help.

[@BelgicaPaola]

Haha, thanks! Awesome. Let me know if you try any of them.

Does roleplaying a character in real life help acting? I created my own oc few years ago and i've been creating stories for my character and i memorize it, i mostly create a fake scenario in my head and i roleplay that scenario, lines and acts in real life, 2years ago i failed the drama lesson criteria. But i decided to go to a singing and dancing lesson so that i could increase my chance for winning that criteria of drama club.

[@BelgicaPaola]

Yes, roleplaying in my perspective is the same as improvising in character. :)

[@icycrew6869]

I really hate this cuz memorizing is one my key and main strengths, done a lot of play , in school, but then Covid hit , so school shat down , and then ruined the whole thing for me 😢so I’m giving it a go again

[@BelgicaPaola]

Good luck! 😊

[@M4YTH3B3ST]

Idk how to ask my mom if I can act- my friend wants to act but COVID we call but her boyfriend is basically always there and she doesn’t want to act so I never get a chance

[@BelgicaPaola]

You can practice at home 😊 you don't have to make it a career right away or even ever. See how you like it first.

What's the issue? Are you having a hard time with having time and silence to rehearse/audition?
