The only advice I give to acting students is, 'Be nice to your underclassmen. You never know who might be in a position to help you get a job one day.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't take acting classes - I'm quite an autodidact. I prefer to learn from other actors by watching various movies. Evaluate my acting, spot the flaws and fix them.
You know, back in acting school they always teach you, 'Make bold choices and look for activities that are interesting.'
The best way to learn how to work with actors is to have had experience of trying to act yourself - it will teach you humility if nothing else.
I recommend doing some sort of acting class, something that can eventually get you in front of an agent or a manager, and practice is very important.
I think everyone should take an acting class. It's like therapy because you get to learn a lot about yourself if it's the right teacher. You're putting yourself up there in front of people, and it takes a lot of the intimidation of everyday away.
If I wasn't acting, I'd be teaching acting. That would be my easiest thing to fall back on is teaching it.
I went to a very academic school that actually - when I got to the point of wanting to pursue acting, they just had no idea how to do that, because all of their contacts were very academic.
There are so many actors that I meet that don't act enough. Definitely take class, definitely train - that's the most important thing you do. Build your craft. Become better.
I think my advice to other actors would be to get in classes. Get out in front of people. Put up scenes in front of your peers.
I always treat all the jobs I do as an acting class.
