Theater & Acting - August 2007

I really REALLY want to be a big-time movie actor. i know it takes a lot of talent and a lot of luck.

i'm in 9th grade in indiana. i don't have much money.
okay- i'm really shy, but i want to be an actor. i know the best place to start is acting in school plays... but i'm too shy to even try out.
i'm pretty good at acting, and i'm pretty good at singing.

how should i get going on my dream of being an actor?
with living in indiana, theres never any auditions for big movies near here. and i dont have money to travel places.

what can i do??

Why aren't there any GOOD questions about High School Musical 2...like, "What are their shoe sizes?" "Do any of the actors in HSM2 like Wheaties?" "Do any of them have zits and what do they do to get rid of them?" "Why aren't there any ugly people in HSM2?" "Do any of them have drug problems?" "Do any of the HSM2 actors have gum disease?" "How many of them believe in Bigfoot?" "If you could be any of the HSM2 actors' parents whose would it be and why?" "Which one of the HSM2 actors didn't floss yesterday?" " How many of the HSM2 girl actors shave their armpits?" "Will there be a novel of HSM2?" "Where can I audition for High School Musical 9: Dead Singing Kids Everywhere?"

I'm 15 and I'm a baritone. I have a great resonance in my voice until i get up to about an F5. (High F). I'd like to be able to belt that high as well as easily hit the note at all volumes. I'd like to try to extend my range to a good 2-3 octaves. Any advice?

i'm looking for a good song to audition with for a musical, and i'm completely out of ideas! i'm a 14 year-old girl with a pretty wide range, though i'm most comfortable with mezzo-alto stuff. most people audition with only part of the song, usually a verse and the chours, and it's accapella so it really needs to keep moving... any suggestions?

Ok, So I dont live in California where its so easy to go from audition to audition. I'm with an agency, but have heard High school Musical 3 auditions are on YouTube? Any truth to that?

Do producers actually look on YouTube to find some actress's for their movies?

Thanks!

I have never taken an acting class besides drama in school. Because all of the courses include singing and dancing. I don't sing well, and dancing just isn't for me.
Any just acting classes/agents?

I need to think of a good stage name for girl age range 11-14. I was thinking Jrew-Madison Mason. Too long??? It's for acting, not singing or dancing, if that helps!! I like unusual names, but normal names are good too!

I live in the shitiest city in the country, Dayton Ohio. theres noting here man. So theres a lot of stuff i want to try like acting .Its just soo tough getting up in any area of the entertainment industry in a city that is 20 years behind the rest of the country. Dont get me wrong i know im gonna have to make some moves but i guess thats why TV is always pushing that good ole story about that person who follows their dreams out west to Cali or another big city. Soo many people dont have the guts to do it .
