Committment
Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness…The moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too…Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Begin it now.

How do actors cry on cue?
There are so many different approaches to crying.

Ask Me!: Film/TV in New York or LA?
Anonymous asked
Do you think it is possible to have a film career in NYC? I hear LA is the place for film but what if your not able to go there for financial reasons.
