To Be An Actor

............................................ .....

Significant Points :

* Actors endure long periods of unemployment, intense competition for roles,
and frequent rejections in auditions.

* Formal training through a school or acting conservatory is typical; however,
many actors, producers, and directors find work on the basis of their experience
and talent alone.

* Because earnings for actors are erratic, many supplement their incomes by
holding jobs in other fields. Actors perform in stage, radio, television, video,
or motion picture productions. They also work in clubs, theme parks, commercials,
"and industrial" films produced for training and educational purposes. Most actors
struggle to find steady work; only a few ever achieve recognition as stars. Some
well-known, experienced performers may be cast in supporting roles. Others work
as "extras," with no lines to deliver, or make brief, cameo appearances, speaking
only one or two lines. Some actors do voiceover and narration work for advertisements,
animated features, books on tape, and other electronic media. They also teach in high
school or college drama departments, acting conservatories, or public programs.

Sir Charles Chaplin:
Timing! My mother gave me that. I was born with it. I don't think you can teach a person to act.
[Radio Times, March 1979]
