HeyI'm 13 and I know there is a LOT of teens out there that want to act is much as me, but all of us cant act, so i think whoever is really intrested in acting like me should be the ones to succed. If anyone can help us get satrted then PLEASE do. And im not sure if i have to pay to act ina film, but i hope not. I'm sure that most of us dont have a lot of money. If i did recive enough money i would by my family a new house!

Thanks Alan!

It's always great to hear some feedback, and despite my ever-growing sense that it's all getting out of hand, I can happily relax knowing that I'm helping others...

I've got heaps more plans up my sleeve to help those artists out there... I just wish I had the money and time to do it all!

It's funny when I bump into a friend, or someone I know who's signed up, and they've gone - "Wow, thanks for all that info, I auditioned for this, or I tried out for that, or I applied for..." - and then I realise that I'm doing something that does help, even though I rarely get feedback on it.

... You're so right about commitment. There are plenty of things that all of us could do everyday, but the things that we actually do is because we are committed. You can't just sit on your ass, and say, "well, one day it'll happen", especially in this industry.

You want to be in a show - be committed to taking classes, doing shows, getting to know your local companies, and current issues. You want to get your play produced - find out about competitions, do a course, relearn grammar and spelling, read other plays. You want to make your own show - then you learn about the costs, the requirements of the show.

You do the work, and it works for you...
