Formal Introduction to "Acting: In Zero to Sixty"

Give me good writing and I am in love. Good writing provides subjects, stories, and characters worth portraying, worth the time and effort to communicate to an audience. I just never realized that could actually be the one who portrays these things.

Before this year, I had never imagined acting as something actually plausible. It seemed untouchable--that the people you saw on television and on cinema screens were more special or capable of such accomplishments. This is such small-thinking.

I'm not sure exactly when it hit me, it must have been an ongoing process, but I finally realized that I can have what I want, and what I want is to act. So that's what I'm in the process of doing and having in my life. This process is what you are reading in this blog.

As I start my career, I am learning so much about the business, how it works, how to get your foot in the door, and how to actually become a talented actor. As I learn it all, I will post this information, along with my personal experiences with people, classes, auditions, the business, resources, etc. That way, not only will I be able to review my overall progress, but you might be informed, too.

These are exciting times. A student learning to swim is in the process of becoming a tidal wave. Get ready. We are the future's amazement.
