    After reading the first part of Respect for Acting by Uta Hagan I have a newfound respect for actors and all that they go through to obtain the true character in which they are playing. As someone who has never neither acted nor read anything about performing, this has opened my eyes to all of the work that these actors go through on a daily basis for the sheer enjoyment of their audience. While reading over the chapters in this book there are a few key concepts that I found to be interesting.…

    As I was beginning a small career in the entertainment business, my mother was my source of encouragement. She inspired me to continue in the entertainment business because she knew that this was an opportunity of a life time. By the time I was eleven, I began using my voice in Spanish-language version of American films. Acting was becoming clear to me that it was my new calling and I cherished it more than singing and dancing. Then I received my first Broadway role at age thirteen where I was passing eleven and looking as if I was nine. I always looked young for my age. The Broadway drama I stared in was called Skydrift. Shortly after my appearance in the Broadway show, I was contacted by Hollywood talent scouts. The scout informed me that when the time was right he would notify me.…

    Throughout my school life I have taken part in many different performances that were put on show to the public. I acted in numerous short films with the A level film study classes and studied drama at and A level. One of my earliest works was acting in my primary school productions of Wizard of Oz and Cinderella; and in secondary I was in the school production of Charlie and the chocolate factory. As I got older I discovered acting in films as opposed to stage productions. I thoroughly enjoy both sides of acting; stage and films. During my time at Chestnut Grove 6th form I was asked to act in numerous short films created by the A level film studies class as my talent had been widely recognised throughout the 6th form. A short film I was acting in called ‘Double Crossed’ as a gang leader; was then used for two students A level course work in film studies. Whilst making this film I felt alive, the constant re taking of shots may annoy some people but I take it as…

    I started theatre in sixth grade, when I was in the ensemble of the Music Man at CAST Summer. From there, I gradually became more interested and I started auditioning for every play season. When I got to OPRF, the stakes exponentially grew. We had kids coming in from BRAVO, Ovation academy, all highly prestigious youth theaters in Oak Park. Acting became less of a pastime for me and more a defining way of life at OPRF. This year, I was lucky enough to get cast in a play, a feat I told myself I could never accomplish.…

    Ideal Future Essay

    • 359 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Ideally, my life one year from now will revolve around making my lifelong dream of becoming an actress a reality. As of right now, I am actively auditioning for and participating in my hometown's non-profit theater group, in order to get more experience under my belt before beginning to pursue acting professionally. When that time comes, I'd like to be living in either Seattle, Washington or San Francisco, California. I've made this decision because those are two of my favorite cities in America, and also because my two colleges of choice are in aforementioned cities. I would like to be progressing towards my Theater major, and maybe a minor in either Game Design, Musical Theater, or Original Works (writing plays, films, etc). Meanwhile, I'd like to get some sort of job that will support me in paying my college dues and buying the daily necessities. I'd hope that I can stay in touch with the friend I have now, but also branch out and make new friends in the process. I would definitely like to have more friends that appreciate the work that I want to make of my life as much as I do. Socially, I'd like to try to find a steady balance between work and play. I'm not very social at present time, so I think I'd like to get out more with the people I meet to experience the world in a new light. I don't necessarily need a significant other, but if I find someone who I am happy with and who supports my constant modus operandi of dreaming big and shooting for the stars, then I suppose that would be nice. Overall, I'm not looking to become a superstar whose face is plastered all over the tabloids. My ideal situation would be participating in a thriving theater group, my name and face being able to be recognized by those who enjoy my work as much as I do. I would just like to say to people I meet that I do what I love on a daily basis. Not a job, but a…
