Everyone In Hollywood Started Out as an Actor

Hi,
Calm Munro here. Acting guide.

Let's get grounded... Some quick roll downs and a couple of tip-of-the-tongue-the-teeth-the-lips.

Okay, let's begin.

No one started out in showbiz wanting to be a casting director or an associate producer. No five year old says "I wanna be a grip when I get older". Everyone starts out wanting to be an actor. Everyone wants the limelight, wants to be feted and wants to get stuff for free. I've gotten stuff for free before. I got a gift bag at the Television premiere of the MOW "Atomic Train". It was awesome.

But being an actor is the hardest thing to do. That's why many turn to their plan B: production assistant, location manager, surgeon. Way easier than being an actor. It's kinda like being an astronaut. And not just one that's on standby. One that's actually gone into space.

So the next time you meet an actor give yourself lower status and then congratulate them on sticking in there.

All you actors out there... Stay strong! The world needs a hero more than ever...
Besides, NYC fire fighters are getting kinda old.

Drama hugs,
Calm Munro
