We will be the first to admit that the acting biz is a teeny bit scary… But that’s mostly for the UNinformed.  Those are the ones that don’t bother to ask, they just DO and by just “doing” and not “knowing” is not exactly the “best” method to succeed. Not saying you won’t get there, but WHY chance it?

Staying informed has to be one of the most critical parts of being an Actor/Actress. You NEED to know how to Audition, what headshots are appropriate to get you that callback, how to dress for your agent/manager interview, Audition etiquette and that’s just the beginning. What does “being green” mean, “back to one” ? Not ringing a bell? Yes, you NEED to know the lingo as well. Actors don’t speak “regular” language…. They speak “Actor’s Language” and you MUST know these tidbits.  Here’s a little quiz: How many of these Acting terms do YOU know?
