Ive been interested in acting for the longest time. Its always been a dream of mine. As of recently, Ive started taken acting classes; I guess I was tired of waiting around for my dreams to come true, I had to do it myself. The problem is is that I am new to this biz. I honestly, know close to nothing about acting, theater, scripts, stages, or any other jazz that has much to do with acting. I wish I had someone to ask this about, but none of my friends are into acting, and my family is just as clueless in this area. If you know any tips, or suggestions that might help me out, it would be greeaaaatlyy appreciated. Thanks.

I can see that you are already figuring out how to use the little gadgets on this site in order to enhance things. A safe time for me, given that I am going to be needing to do some long-distance travelling, would be about 9:00 p.m. your time. I think that we are about an hour apart in time based upon what you said earlier as far as the time.

It is interesting, the book that is unfolding, page-by-page of who you are musically. Sounds like you have a lot going for you already! I'm sure that you won't have any trouble getting into acting!

I do have a couple of last questions for you, though. Are you into the visual arts, such as painting, drawing, etc.? Or, maybe into writing of some kind, like stories or poems?

Faborgirl

Unfortunately, I think this will be my last post. 9:00pm is good for me, and I look forward to talking to you again!

Do you really think so? That i have potential with acting? wow thats great news!

Im not as much into the visual arts. I do enjoy painting, but I have taken no classes or courses with the visual arts, and I probably have little to no talent with it. As far as writing is concerned, I love it. I have always enjoyed writing stories and creating new adventures. People have told me I am quite creative with my writing, and I think that is the major reason why im in English AP at school (Advanced Placement). Poems? No, Im not a huge fan of writing poems. I still write them, but only when I have to.

I look forward to talking to you Sunday, and good luck with your gig!

I was just checking. Since you are involved with the arts of whatever kind, I will be inviting you over to a thread where you will be meeting some wonderful, incredible people! The thread might blow you away at first because it is so large and intense. But, don't worry, you will receive a warm welcome there! The thread is very warm and friendly, and also a good read at that!

Thanks for wishing me well with the gig!

Until later then...

Goodnight and sweet dreams to you!

Clough

p.s. Yes, I do know that you have potential with acting. I can tell it by the way that you write!

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..............

Clough

I am here, Faborgirl. I apologize that I am late!

Faborgirl

Not to worry, Clough
God knows Im late enough! Haha!
So how did the gig go?

Clough

It went fine! Although unfortunately, that is probably the last time that we will be playing there. The management of the hotel has changed and they are really sticking it to our director concerning the money. This, after 14 years of excellent service by our group to the place. I haven't been with the group that long. I just know that it has been going on that long as far as playing there.

Please tell me about your piano playing. That can have much to do with acting. Thank you!

Faborgirl

well Im happy that it went alright, but its unfortunate that you wont be playing at that hotel anymore

I love playing the piano. It has gotten me through a lot of hard times in my life. Its because of my piano playing that I got involved with the clarinet, and later the oboe. This is my ninth year playing, and im still in love with it

Clough

What sort of music do you play on the piano? Pieces? Styles? Composers? Nine years is a long time to have been playing. Have you also taken lessons for that same amount of time? Just trying to find out more things concerning your skills in order to give you better ideas and direction.

Clough

I also do know about playing a keyboard instrument such as a piano or an organ and using it to help get myself through some hard times in life. When I was about your age and younger, living in my parent's home, I used to close whatever doors I could to where our electronic organ was located and just wail away with improvising on melodies and chords that I would make up. I would make myself cry in the process. It was a great stress reliever!

I sometimes do something similar now, although I don't go shutting the doors!
