To everyone. Even the wannabes.
Thu, 24 June 2004, 04:50 pmIt's obvious to me now that SOME of the younger people who use this site have no idea about how to market themselves or how to get started in our industry. What they lack in this knowledge, they are making up by creating unnecessary drama. It was funny at first, but I dare say I'm not the only one who is a little tired of it.
What is a little frustrating to me is that some of the adults who use this site are provoking them. Granted, Leah has tried to end it by providing some useful comments on the subject, but to no avail. Her comments were immediately followed by Danya's, and so the saga continues - for who knows how long.
All I'm trying to say by writing this is to let the older generation of people here know that kids test the waters, which is exactly what is happening here. They're growing up, starting to wonder who they'll end up being in this world. This message board provides the perfect opportunity for them since it allows a freedom of speech medium without the scary factor of confronting an adult face to face. Nothing is going to happen to them no matter what they say. They can remain anonymous (if they've been smart enough). Having said that, I would have no issue employing the likes of Sasha. Some of the things she says might be a little off, but at least she has the passion and emotion to follow through. Don't you remember what you were like when you were her age? I certainly can. I was a little @!#$! I wouldn't change anything though.
So, if the next "13yr old actress needs a job" post annoys you, by all means say that you're annoyed, but to let it drag on is probably a waste of time. A nasty waste of time in some instances. We just seem to be going round and round in circles. I'm basically asking you to ignore them if it gets out of hand. I'd like to see everyone get on. Have arguments, but get on too. This industry is really small and we need to stick together.
I hope some of you understand what I'm talking about. If you don't, and you tell me I'm stupid or something, that's fine too. But life is too short to worry about certain things. Sometimes you just have to get on with it.
Have an excellent day :)

Wed, 30 June 2004, 10:42 pmHey im a kid, im only 14. I found that this site would be good to show off that i wanted some acting parts. im sorry if this annoys you, but you dont really need to go onto the post that we posted. these are for people who would like to help us out. maybe give us a springboard to the future. what would be nice would be a bit of encouragement and not some put downs.
