How to Become an ACTOR in 2023 (w/ NO experience) | Start your acting career

[@rihannaashleyy]

I’m 17 i live in Atlanta and i’ve been putting off my dream of becoming an actress for something ‘more realistic’ because of the lack of encouragement and now i’ve realized that i really can’t see myself doing something that’s not in the film industry and i decided i’m gonna go for it!!!!

[@Hannahschannel]

Thats amazing!!! Go for it!!!

[@xxgamerxxchrischris2325]

​@@Hannahschannel can you help me out with acting please

[@Superspeeeed]

@@Hannahschannel how do you get noticed and find real auditions for big names do you need to know ppl? I’m 17 rn but I’ve never tried doing acting bc I never understood how to get noticed or a real audition but I always wanted too since I was little wondering if u could make a vid abt that thanks I’m in Houston

[@OverClockedMadness]

I'm 17 in New Mexico. I think I'm having that same problem.

[@heygraceshockey]

Hey!! I’m 25 and had the same feeling a few years ago… I realized I’d been trying to avoid acting and do something more “practical,” but had a come to Jesus moment when I realized that literally nothing else will make me feel fulfilled. GO for it and never give up!!!

[@emilymeyers6069]

I’m so glad to see these comments about people graduating and deciding to pursue acting. I graduate later this year and it’s been my dream to act for years and I think I’m going to finally try. My parents have always told me that they don’t like the industry but I know that I can do it and I’m not going to do something that I don’t want to do

[@Hannahschannel]

You totally can pursue acting!

[@nots2952]

I've always wanted to be an actress. But all my life people around me have always ridiculed me telling Me I won't get any money out of acting, now I've dropped it..never pursued it and now I don't even know how to act..But I won't give up. I'll start from scratch, better myself and even take some acting classes. I really want this dream to come true..so thank you for this❤

[@Hannahschannel]

You totally can make money and be successful acting!!!

[@shelbyunluckyme]

I love the idea of acting, I get really excited thinking about scenes I could imagine myself in, and different roles I could play but the scariest thing for me, completely, is other people. I dont know if Id be happy with the amount of attention you get for performing, let alone if you become recognizable. I'm an introvert with stage fright, its hard to push myself into it.

[@haley.murphy]

omg same!!

[@Itsj4y0fficial]

Omg girl me too!!!

[@OT7-VKook]

Omg same! That’s literally me, I feel you girl 😭

[@OT7-VKook]

I decided that I’m going to give it a try, cause I know that if I never do this I’ll regret later so I’ll give my best and I believe I can become an actress, and so do you!! Please don’t let your dreams die ❤

[@Lucia4_]

There’s both positive or negative way to look at this but view how you want; not a lot of actors makes it big in the sense of fame. Or some good actors have a few fans but aren’t recognised often. I understand your worry but I believe you will get through it, acting is also a journey and if you love doing it hopefully those concerns will bother you less and less as you progress! I wish you luck! 🧡

[@sdfilmproductions4193]

Thought I'd give some advice here so I spoke to my friend who is a UK actor who has done it for 19 years, he is really quite successful and who I have worked with as a production assistant several times. Here are his 3 tips.... 1) Get some professional training. Even if your the best natural actor in the world this shows your dedicated and will hone those skills. It will also teach you certain phrases you will hear on set and then you won't have to ask what they mean. 2) DO NOT under any circumstances mention social media in an audition. Casting directors hate it. They don't care how many followers you have and if you share everything on social media they may not want to let you see the script or be around any big names. 3) Be realistic and manage your expectations. Your never guaranteed your next acting role. 97% of actors either work or have worked regular jobs. Even some bigger names go back to regular jobs, you just don't hear about it much. Their not all as rich as you might think. Sometimes a big film might not pay much but it could lead to a commercial that pays more than you can imagine. You may be surprised what roles earn you bigger money....In this industry you've 'made it' if your getting a paycheck.

[@Sumhavo1]

What sort of professional training and are there any resources to find this training?

[@sdfilmproductions4193]

@@Sumhavo1 A few years with any professional drama group will provide efficient training that Casting directors and agents will accept and this will also provide a couple theatre roles to start an acting resume. He has said however that you have to constantly be phoning and arranging meetings with industry professionals. He started decades ago when there was no internet. He said it's so much easier nowadays but he did emphasise real industry professionals will not advertise or reach out on social media. You have to reach out to them the old fashioned way. Phone, arrange a meeting, and then meet with them in person.

[@haileyfunderburk1201]

The one thing stopping me is that I am a young mom of two children and a military wife. It’s discouraging when other mothers or couples tell me that I am wasting my time and hope wanting to become an actress when I have things to handle at home. I know I could manage my time well and keep things in line. Nobody in my family believed in my dreams growing up. I hope to get past this obstacle and make my children and spouse proud of how hard I am working towards what I want to do in life

[@Hannahschannel]

It’s always hard when the people who should support our dreams don’t, most of the time is because they don’t believe in themselves! If you have the desire to pursue acting you absolutely can do it!😄

I'm from Russia, and recently I really wanted to become an actor, and specifically an American one, because I don't believe in my success in Russia.I'm still 14, I need to save money, get an American visa, and I need to go to America before I'm 18, because I don't want to waste a year of my life in the army, but spend this year for me, but it will be a very difficult path, save money,move to America, and already there becomes an actor.This is my dream.I have already started learning English, so far everything is very bad, and I am writing this text with the help of a translator, but I think that in 3 years I will be able to learn English for speaking.Now my life's dream and goal is to become a famous American actor.I need millions of money, I just want to star in a famous series starring, and become famous.

[@jaycemcqueen306]

I do a bunch of short films on my personal/professional channel. More so directing, writing, editing, etc as opposed to acting. However, definitely want to pursue this career as a whole. This video was greatly helpful! Most videos just talk about how hard it is to get in and don’t really give solutions besides saying “get lucky”. I’m currently 18 in northern nevada, just graduated. While my family is supportive…. Once I graduated they just want me focusing on a “real job” instead of anything with film. This video is very inspirational! Thank you!

I’m 16 I live in a small town in Texas, I’ve been wanting to act since i was 7. Every time I was asked what I wanted to do in the future I said I wanted to be an actress, every single time they laughed at me. Sometimes I think I should just give up and do something normal, but then I start thinking and realize all I want to do is act. That’s all I want to do. This video right here gives me hope. I’m going to take the steps even if it take a while, it’ll be worth it in the end. Thank you.

Hi! I really appreciate you doing this video and being so kind/supportive to those that are pursuing acting. I started taking acting classes last summer and ended up loving the art. This year I'm interested in taking the steps towards a career and this video gave me so much motivation. I struggle a lot with confidence and self-limiting beliefs that I'm not capable of doing this but honestly just showing up to classes and doing the work has helped a lot in that area. I'm excited to keep learning and hopefully in the future it becomes my reality.

I’ve been wanting to get into acting since I was little, but I just never had the courage to do it. Acting just seems like an unrealistic dream, an alternate reality. But I’ve come to a point in my life where I’m 24 and I don’t want to be 40, 50 or 60 and regret I never tried. But I would say the absolute biggest thing holding me back is my stutter. Sometimes I feel me not having stutter would make it so much more easier to pursue what I want to do in this life.

Im 14, I have wanted to be an actor since I was about 6-7 years old, and I started acting classes when I was 6. One day however, I had an unfortunate moment on stage ( I was really embarrassed) and as a little 6 year old, I quit. I was almost ashamed of acting its self, and I tried to forget about it, but obviously I could not. So I started again when I was 13, and now I am getting very serious about it. I am in the best school for acting in my area, and I recently got a role in a play. ( It was just a school play but a lot of people auditioned so I was so grateful that I got it) Anyway, I guess the main road block is that I feel like I am not good enough, and I feel like I am in a constant competition, I absoloutly LOVE acting, its my favourite thing in the world, and I think because I love it so much, I am constantly shadowed by the fear of missing out. I also see so many young actors ( Percy Jackson for example) who got roles young, and I just wish that was me, and that I was that good. I obviously know that I can overcome it, It is just difficult. If anyone has any tips what so ever please let me know!!

[@ZealynLuv]

I really want to be and become an actor but no one really knows in my family lol. Something thats really holding me back is the fact im 12 years old. Personally I feel that becoming a child actor really consists of being in the right place at the right time. Major child and teen actors didnt take much initiative. I also feel that being an actor at any age consists of being charismatic. I fit that role and really want to see what I can become. Binge watching all your videos right now! It would be great if you saw this and had any tips for me that would help to let me know. Thanks!

Hi! I just finished up college football and my dream was to make it to the NFL. Sadly, I didn’t make it and this was very heartbreaking and depressing for me, and still is.. luckily, while I WAS in college, I found a passion for film and acting and got my degree in it. I’d say the only thing stopping me from pushing towards this dream to be in film was always football. Now I feel like I need to get over the depressing hump of not making the NFL, and pursue acting and cinematography. I’m going to take your steps and I hope they work for me! Thank you and I hope we can stay connected !

[@Hannahschannel]

LOVE that! Keep chasing your dreams! Sorry to hear about the NFL, but maybe you were meant to pursue acting instead!

I really want to be an actor but we don’t have a lot of money, and I have no idea where to find agencies near me. I’m also very scared of auditioning and I’m not good at all at acting. Like every time I try, I feel embarrassed with myself. I don’t know how to fix it 😭

[@Jaccc35]

I want to thank you for motivating me more I’ve always wanted to be an actor and was in a film class in middle and high school and I feel like I have talent and can really do it but a big problem for me is I’m a 20 year old freshly starting with no Money I am currently living alone so it’s harder with money now that I have rent and bills but thanks to your video and knowledge you motivated me so much I started instantly making moves right after I watched it so I will continue watching and thanks for the motivation I will show my appreciation to you by becoming as successful as you led me to be

[@itsjustzell]

From jersey been wanting to be one since I was a kid just didn’t have the right people around me I appreciate this video so much

[@Hannahschannel]

the right people in your circle are crucial!

I’m only 13 years old i really want to be an actress but I feel like it’s very unlikely that I’ll become an actress because I have stage fright, I’m super introverted, and I have never acted before or even been on stage. There’s a drama club at my school and I feel like I might join next year, does someone have any tips I could use while acting in a play?

[@CourtneyShane]

I've done all these steps a million times and been in this challenge of breaking into acting for three decades. Can you coach someone like me who is burnt out from trying?

[@Hannahschannel]

Yeah absolutely!

[@Aesthetic_Edits]

What are some online zoom classes you’d recommend?

[@madihjorth8164]

This is interesting because me and my 5 roommates moved from Boise, ID and moved to LA, CA last year in January. We wanted to work in the entertainment industry (film/TV industry). We understand that CA is really expensive to live. But living in ID was the worst state ever. “Don’t CA My ID” is the worst phase we have ever heard.

[@peytonpie_522]

I really want to become an actor but I am only 14 and still in middle school. I am also really shy and have really bad social anxiety

[@DaniUh-d1z]

I have a question that I’m hoping no one will judge me for.. is 12 years old, TOO young to start acting? I want to be taken seriously and not like it’s just some dumb phase or fantasy in my head, I want to get an agent, I want to be on TV, in movies, I want to be known and grow up as an actress, my mom believes in me but I have a feeling she thinks I should start acting once I’m older.

[@jasonspratling]

Of course not!!! Do you know how many child actresses and actors they are!!! Dive in and ask around with your parents

[@gaelcomics5997]

I'm 14 (about to turn 15) and I want to be an actor. I live in a small city in Texas an there's no local acting classes. I would like to get in an acting class with actors about my age to learn from someone that I can relate to.

[@yiroxq5062]

I don’t even live in the usa rn but I’ll move there when I finish my art school rn and I want to start acting to follow my dream, and I thank you so much for this really u cleared my doubts ty❤

[@emmyordonez7865]

Life long dream of being an actress. I feel I may be to old to start now and have always shy away from starting. I'm 36....

I live in wales and never had a lesson never learned it in school but I’m saving up to move to America and become an actor

[@hamzagamalelgamal]

I am 14 yo and I live in Cairo, Egypt. My dream is to become a Hollywood actor. I've been loving acting since forever ago and I want to act especially in Hollywood! Only problems are most casting directors pick people from around their area and of course there aren't any "Hollywood" castings in Egypt for obvious reasons. Another problem is getting an agent. Idk if I can get an agent from around my country or should I get one from another one I don't even know.

[@elainejames1636]

I will . I need information on acting classes. Thank you

[@rajeshraj8659]

I love acting I like villan carctoer

[@ImMayBeOllie]

Do you have any tips on how to get practice and how to get over stage fright?

[@iwrongic]

You play your character. Be your character. Don't worry about you, your life, or any fears you may have. When you're given a character to play, you need to become them. Once you do that, you don't worry about your fear. People aren't going to look at YOU, they're looking to see the character. Does that make sense?

[@mariatobar6984]

I would love some recommendations for the best zoom acting classes in LA! And thank you for this video, wrote it all down❤

[@geegee_tv_]

I’ve always wanted to be an actress! I still do. I will be! At the moment, I’m stuck because I’m not sure how to get myself exposed to the industry to have my opportunity. I recently graduated with my Film degree with minors in Theatre and Digital Media but I still feel unprepared. I’ve taken a couple of acting classes. I am looking for an agent but I just don’t want to be scammed. I’m taking my dream and goals seriously so I’ve been looking at some “to do” videos to move steps closer to my goal. I’m also trying to network more with other actors, filmmakers, etc. So I’m definitely open to meeting new people that have the same passion I do. I’ll definitely save this video to make sure I continue striving. Thank You A lot!😊

hi I'm 17 years l live in Botswana which is in the southern part of Africa and I've always dreamed about becoming a hollywood actress but l don't think l have what it takes because from what l know about hollywood is that a person can go to LA for auditions over and over again but they never make it some even quit their dreams and because of that l doubt if l'll ever make it into hollywood but your video has motivated me to keep my head held up high because l still have a chance
