But what kind of acting would you like to do? I'll just guess and say TV and film. which is more toned down physically. You still young and you have all the time to do this but first and foremost do your normal school work. Try and take community drama classes offered around your area to learn more about the craft. Make time to learn how to translate nonverbal communication around you. And take note on your emotions. Acting is an emotionally draining career so you better make sure you are up for it. let your parents find an agent for you. and an agent who is skilled in representing young talent. Check and double check that agent as some people can take you for a ride and leave you broke. DON'T PAY AN AGENT. they earn with the percentage that you earn from the projects you have done (in South Africa) it's about 15% but the promotional material like your head shots might be out of your pocket.
I wish you all the luck. Work hard and you'll make it.
PS. First make it in your own country before you can move to another. Make sure you know all there is to know. You have to be prepared for luck. Good luck

Well it will be hard to go to the US since you're not a commonwealth but you should ask yourself first,"Do I want to go to America or Do I want to be an actress so I can go to America?" Yes America is the "Land of Opportunity" but even here and everywhere it is hard to retain a dream like that. Just because you go to acting school you will have a hard time finding a job. So don't wait to come to the U.S.A start your dream now. Good luck.

Sadly no one had addressed your questions. You are not going to become and actress, at least not for many years. You have to have tons of experience in plays and professional classes and aquire the business know how for being an actor, and it may be different in Brazil than in the US. Why not ask your questions on the Brazil forum by clicking on your flag below?

You can be anything that you want, IF you work hard at it and put your heart into it!
Good Luck in the Future, I'm Sure you;ll make it!

While you are young, start your acting career in Brazil
