So you are asking yourself where do I start?  We would like to give you some give lines and the best place to start is with self-examination.  Ask yourself these questions in order:

1. Why do you want to act? If it something like, "I don't know. It just always interested me." Then you might want to think about an answer more like "I wanted to act all my life."
2. What is your goal?  If is fame, money, performing or maybe just self-exploration.  Then you may want to think in more of the lines of conquest.
3. How do you feel about the idea of performing in public or auditioning? Well, if it terrifies you, then go back to question #1 and do some real soul-searching. Today’s acting is something that always involves auditioning and performing in front of people. It occurs on a stage in front of an audience or in front of a camera with dozens of techs around. Acting is in front of people!
