Hi Tony!Most people don’t even take the time to tell a person how to reach their goal. I want to thank you for everything and for responding to my messages. Sometimes I just test people to see if they really care about my career and you do. You can continue to send me some tips on how I can accomplish my goals, because you inspire me a lot. Thank you for caring.

Teen Acting Information
Nowadays there is not as much teen acting information as there needs to be. Each year thousands and thousands of teens decide that acting is the profession they want to pursue. Having said that, the competition among actors in that group particularly is immense. It has been said that the competition in that category (those actually making an effort to get work, find agents and get auditions) is more than double that of most other demographic categories of actors. So what does that mean? It means that if you are a teen and you want to be competitive and have a real shot at getting a job, then you have to do your homework and be prepared!
Here below are the links to several pages on actingcareerstartup.com that might give some insight not only of what it will be like to pursue this career, they will also give you some real and concrete help to lay a solid foundation in the start of your new acting career.

What you’re doing is great Anthony.

Dear Anthony,

You are very well-spoken, knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and it shows through the work that you do! I hope our paths in the industry will cross again and really enjoyed meeting you. Thanks, again and best wishes with your very important work!
Warmly,

Hey Tony, thanks for the info, yours by far is the most useful, I am 30 years old, and I myself always (secretly) wanted to be an actress, but I never knew where to begin, so thank you. You have given me hope!
