I want to be an actor, but my height is not good. I am 16 years old, have no acting experience, and my family situation is not very good. Is this okay? I really like acting.

Don’t believe someone with ulterior motives who deceives you about where to go for an interview. You can’t go anywhere that recruits actors. Actors are not recruited. All companies that recruit actors, including places that claim to recruit directly from the production crew, all They are all fake recruitment scams, none of them are real. Don’t even touch them. You can't get involved with some private film and television academies, they are all scammers, and you can't become an actor even if you spend free money.

Being an actor without going to art school requires a certain process, and it needs to be explained by distinguishing between men and women. The only way for men to go to Hengdian Film and Television City in Zhejiang or to wait at the entrance of Beijing Film Studio to be an extra is to wait for extras. It is not recommended for women to do so, because girls are often sexually assaulted after being selected there. Women actually have better channels. They don't have to start as extras, but they can start as actors with small roles that others only dream of.

If a woman wants to start as a small role actor, she must find a way to enter the director's audition selection range. Especially small role actors close to the masses do not require much acting skills, even if you have no academic qualifications or any special skills. , as long as you enter the director's selection range, as long as your image and temperament are suitable for the role, as long as you, as a new actress, do not refuse to take any shots that are artistically required, and your performance has real potential, the director may select you to directly enter. A regular company may also choose you to sign a contract directly. Even if you are not selected, this audition itself is very training. All the requirements are the same as those in art school. You don’t even need to go to art school to participate in the free audition!

So how do women enter the director's audition selection range? Now there is a completely free public welfare event organized by insiders in the entertainment industry in Beijing. It is a large-scale free preliminary audition public welfare operation. Of course, it is not the director himself who directly shoots the audition, but the volunteer friends around the director. After the audition, the director will Choose people from these expansion packs. As I said before, if someone participating in this event officially becomes a professional actor, it will be a pure surprise. If someone is just a temporary artist, it will also be a good result.

I myself am an elderly volunteer who took free photos in this charity event in Beijing. This audition is completely free. Free working meals are provided during the audition period, as long as you arrange your own accommodation. During the audition period, before you are selected by the director, we can arrange some performing arts activities for you, all of which are paid, so that you can exercise, experience, experience and gain knowledge, so as to prepare for your future acting career. So, as long as you come to me, you are already an artist.

This free audition event is organized by directors in the industry to provide back-up candidates for young actresses who have been forced into small roles by producers and who suddenly refuse to shoot some large-scale scenes on the set. an internal daily routine. Since male actors will not refuse to act, nor will older actresses, and only young actresses need to do this kind of backup, this is called a free preliminary audition charity event The daily work in the industry can only focus on recruiting young girls. It is not the general selection of actors for both men and women. Don’t get me wrong. If you're a man, just pretend I didn't say anything.

We are the elderly volunteers of this event and can do our best to help you realize your dreams for free. This audition activity is for both actors and models. They are selected and auditioned in a unified way. The requirements are the same: as a girl, as a newcomer to the entertainment industry, whether you will be an actor or a model in the future, you must not refuse to appear in domestic productions that are allowed by the party’s literary and art policy. It is the largest shot ever seen in the film, and it is impossible to avoid being exposed as a model. Whether it is the type of model exposed or the mixed situation of men and women when changing clothes and pants on site, you must be able to accept it calmly. Otherwise, you will definitely lose at the starting line during the audition. Of course, participating in an audition does not guarantee that you will find a way out. You must really love this industry, including even the audition shooting itself. Regardless of whether you are selected or not, you will be satisfied that you can express yourself in front of the camera. Enjoy it and don’t push yourself to audition. Don't think that only character actors need to audition like this. No, extras also need to be able to perform nude scenes. Although they don't audition, if you encounter a nude scene on the set, you are not allowed to refuse to act! Otherwise, you will have to compensate the crew for huge losses.

If you act, you will become famous and make a fortune, but if you don't act, you will suffer heavy losses and fail. No one is so stupid as not to act.

The audition took place at a location in Beijing. The specific location is not fixed. Every time she goes to a different place, someone has made an appointment for the audition. I will inform her of the specific location and precautions she should take this time. Since those from the employer come to the photographers from time to time to view films and select people, and every time they come they only view recent ones, so if you only take one or two shots, they are likely to miss you, and you only have the long-term If you insist on auditioning and filming the expansion film, you will have a higher chance of being seen by them.

Most of the people to be photographed are sent by directors, producers, photographers and agents. I can also find people to shoot myself, and in the end they will review the film and select the people. I have been doing this charity work for decades. Many well-known artists came from my audition activities. If you search on the Internet, except for some of the scammer companies and their associates whose jobs were ruined by me, In addition to the malicious attacks and abuses by Ma Jia, so far no artist who has actually auditioned with me has complained about any irregularities on my part. I myself have even been ridiculed for being unworldly, having abnormal sexual orientation, and being inappropriate. Jie Fengqing, etc., enjoys a high reputation in the entertainment industry in Beijing. It is my pride to be clean.

There is also a touchstone for distinguishing the true from the false in the artist's preliminary audition, which is to see if they can submit New actresses are required not to refuse to star in the largest scenes that have ever appeared in domestic films allowed by the party's literary and artistic policies. This requirement is the prerequisite for new actresses to engage in the entertainment industry. Only if they can meet this requirement can they talk about other things. The first lesson in all art schools is "Liberating Nature", and the teacher is telling you this. Of all the girls who graduated from art schools, there is no one who will not act in any scene. Therefore, in an interview for amateurs, emphasizing this should be true, and not mentioning it should be false. Because they are afraid that mentioning this will scare you away. Who are they going to get money from?

Whether my channel is good or not is a matter of opinion. Girls who love taking photos, girls who like to express themselves in front of the camera even if they don’t make money, girls who love this kind of life as an artist, just want this. Girls who feel that they are not interested in money but just hobbies are happy to do it. They audition with me for a long time and have no complaints whether they are selected or not. And those who are eager to make money are purely for the sake of wealth, even if it is not their best. A girl who has to work hard in the industry she loves in order to make easy money, or a girl who is too utilitarian and really insists on becoming an actress or model to get ahead, may be very hesitant from the beginning, but it will be difficult for her later on. Stick with it.

The other is your age. If you are still an underage girl, unless your parents can bring you here or give written proof that you can accept any shots that are artistically required, you I can only wait until I am over 18 years old.
