Does anyone have any advice for a budding fifteen yr old director/actor?
As far as directing goes, I frequently come up with ideas for films, but there doesn't seem to be any realistic chance of anything more happening due to finance/interest (other people's, not mine) being at a minimum. If anyone has had any experience directing, how did you get started off?
On the acting part. I've been advised not to do drama in college when I'm 16 (i live in wales (the uk), I don't know what school american kids are in at the age of 16, but we got to college) but to simply audition as much as possible for anything at all. Could any pros or anyone with experience in acting please shed light on the situation?
Thanks for your help, if you can give any.
