AUDITIONS:
Acting is 90 % anxiety management and only 10 % technique. If you want to be at your best , it's imperitive that you quiet your straying thoughts and achieve a state of '' centeredness '' just prior to your audition time.
Prior to your "reading" do some slow, deep breathing....meditate and gather that peaceful sense of complete self-assurance that arises from thorough preparation beforehand.
REMEMBER THIS : When you believe everything that's going on in your scene, so does everyone watching it.
YOUR BELIEFS DETERMINE THE LIMITS OF WHAT YOU CAN ACHIEVE.
Remember to listen, actively listen.....then react. Acting is reaction...Acting is doing.
Have another choice in your hip pocket......don't say you can if you can't.

THE ACTOR:
It is paramount for all actors to read, read and enjoy.
Prepare yourself and do these exercise daily
HEAR.. not just to listen ... SEE.. not just looking.
Dis-engage yourself from negative people . Negative people only steal all your good energy .
They will discourage you and are always non-supportive , they will even be jealous of you .
All this negativity is critical of your dreams and passion.
Negative people are filled with "ego" and will always try telling you what you're suppose to be doing instead
of encouraging you to live your passion . Ego is a bad thing, its jealousy, anger and selfishness .
BOOKS :
UPLIFT YOURSELF, EXERCISE YOUR MIND , go and read : "A NEW EARTH" ,awakening to your
life's purpose by Eckhart Tolle.
" THE FOUR AGREEMENTS " by Don Miguel Ruiz. Practice the "Four Agreements" and feel better in yourself.
"EVERYTHING CHANGES" by : Neale Donald Walsch .
"THE FIVE SECRETS " you must discover before you Die, by: John Izzo .
AN EXERCISE FOR THE ACTOR
Make a list of people you know that are positive in mind, who are mature, supportive, interesting
and who shares your passion and people you feel great energy with and you enjoy being around.
These are the people you should seek a friendship and creative times with .
Cultivate them , invite them for "Reading of Scripts ", rehearsals , Film Industry meetings , galas, get togethers
and screenings. Find yourself a "Mentor" and learn.
Stay informed of events, world affairs , this will come in very handy as you audition. So often films are made
about true events and stories you may have heard of or have read about, it truely helps you the actor /
actress to stay informed.
THE BEST INVESTMENT IS "YOU"
INVEST in yourself , do acting workshops , attend seminars, learn different accents.
Great books on languages and accents can be found on here ( see Links).
Talk with fellow actors within your network and your local actors union .
