Hello, I have a question. I am 6´5, going to be 16 soon. I never really tried theatre or drama, but I really really would love to. Does this class provide some insight? I love you videos by the way, huge fan.

[@TheActorsAcademy]

Hey there! Yes it does. Looking forward to seeing you apart of our community!

You are such an inspiration to all the young actors around the world. I've always been so grateful that I discovered your channel, it's been about a year since I stumbled across that first video and the journey has been nothing but rockin' fun since!

This couldn’t have come at a better time- I have to perform a monologue for my school’s theatre class and a scene for my acting class, both have tons of pauses! Thank you, this helped a lot!!

[@TheActorsAcademy]

Glad I could help! Remember as we talked about in the video they are earned pauses based on the story/circumstance of the text. We don’t want to arbitrarily add in pauses, but rather stay true to the moment that the text gives us 👍🏼👍🏼

[@bellaragan-johnson2620]

This is the most I've learned from acting than any of the theatre classes I took in grade school.

Can you do a video about words what you will hear from director, that u should know, like "hold" "from the top" etc, if you haven't done one yet?

I would say that I'm an intermediate actress,, but I still struggle with sounding real to myself. I can fool other people but I don't feel real because I always try to make my voice higher and it so hard to not do that now.

[@meredithdaniels3088]

I can't find any good agencies for acting that accept outsiders, you gave great advice on your past videos based on agencies however after much research I cannot figure out which ones are legit and who I should sign up with.

[@queensenglish123]

You are very smart and articulate sir. And I do like your background, it´s cool.

[@legoboyo2479]

What should I give a casting director if I'm auditioning to model? What do they expect if I were to give them picture(s)? How many? What should I do at a modeling audition? Separately, I was glimpsing at Project Casting and I saw a lot of Headshots where some people looked as if they were trying to be sexy, or attractive; not showing their natural selves (it seemed). What is one way to avoid looking like you're faking a personality in a headshot?

[@KingIsJesus7]

Thanks you for your hard work. Love to learn from you. I only at acting classes so far.

Hi, I’ve recently signed up for acting classes, and have only had 4 lessons so far. I’ve had lessons on filming, comedy + acting, and musical theatre there. They have sent a link for their agent and I’m doing an audition for them in a few weeks around 2-3) Please could I have some tips if you see this? I’m quite nervous as I haven’t done auditions for acting before. Thank you!

[@justinfraziet6843]

What if i was saying it to myself? In a time of disparity. Just as self reassurance. That would be a good way of bringing out heart in some lines. Dont act with fake emotions. Say some lines to youself. Especially if the lines hit home for you. Really helps bring out TRUE emotion. Which is acting, but also reality. That realism, draws in people to watch you.👍👍👍

[@isabella9124]

This was helpful! I will make sure to use my life experiences when studying reciting a text.I am currently studying drama. I’m curious, you have any advice or videos about Hustle Culture? I feel it’s being talked about more and I wonder how artists deal with that, or if most of them don’t follow that.

do you know about face exercise? for acting

[@kunuuu0_0]

Sir where can i go for better acting course ? L.A. or N.Y.

[@TheActorsAcademy]

It really depends on the instructor rather than the location, so there is no clear cut answer. First I’d just start out with whatever it’s within your financial means

[@SagunManandhar]

Awesome ! BTW, I understand that you create your own context when delivering the dialogue in an audtion , but isn't it given to you in real acts ?

[@TheActorsAcademy]

Depending on the text, you will either get a lot of context for your audition or very little. More often than not, it’s relatively little (for confidentiality purposes). That means that it falls onto our job to make sense of the text. Some things will be given to us, while others won’t. We need to bring our own unique perspective to the work that we put out 👍🏼

Have you got a video on how to steal the show, so to speak? You know how you see some actors in a show who seem to just "fill the role" and say their lines, but there are actors who light up the screen or steal a scene. Actors like Michael J Fox in Back to the Future, for example. ...There must be a fine line between standing out vs the director saying, "Could you please just keep to the lines." :)

[@amiyadavable]

If you have age spots it is more difficult and people think you are senile if you pause.

[@TheActorsAcademy]

Age spots are not really a cause for this. It really depends how the individual is looking at the other person. There are many individuals with age spots who do not look senile

Hi sir I am from India and I am an Indian actor. So sir I want to ask that can I get work in marvel ,disney and such big production House in us . If answer is yes then how and what is the way by which I can get work in those production house . Please tell sir By the way love your video sir and love from india ❤️

[@TheActorsAcademy]

You have to get an audition for the project, attend a callback, go to a producer session, get approved by all the needed parties to get apart of said project. How do you get these auditions? Either from open call auditions (meaning anyone can submit). Backstage is a platform that people use, as well as Actors Access. With that being said, it’s not easy to submit for these projects, simply because they are not usually listed as open calls (sometimes they are, but not always). More commonly, you will need to have some sort of representation. Either an agent or a manager. They will be the people who can actually submit you for these bigger projects. With that being said, just because they submit you, it doesn’t mean casting will agree to give you the part or even allow you an audition. If casting doesn’t see you potentially fitting the part, they typically won’t bring you in, but in order to have the best potential chance of getting seen by them, you’ll want to have some sort of representation behind you. Hope that helps 👍🏼
