  • IS ACTING SCHOOL FOR YOU ?!! 10 THINGS I WISH I KNEW BEFORE I JOINED NYCDA !!! (open me)
    I knew that training was essential for my craft. I was excited to start because after seeing shows like victorious and Degrassi it gave me an idea of what drama school would be like? Sorry to break it to you but acting school is tough!! Here are 10 things I wish I knew before joining the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts

    I am 14, and I just got into boarding school, and I'm looking at acting colleges, including nycda, Ithaca, and trinity university. I want to act, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to do it. I've done 9 plays, and loved doing it. Idk why I'm putting this in the comment section, but I just want ppl to know that if you want something, go get it!😚😋

    Hi, from an NYC-based working actor 👋🏾This video made me reminisce. I remember what it was like to study acting at NYU. Good memories. Filmmaking/acting school is completely different than the real world!

      Pick a good monologue. Memorize it. perform it with confidence. pick a monologue or two that you feel you connect with. the character should be of similar age range to you! best of luck!

    Hello :))
    , I loved the video 👌🏽❤️, you explained all the details of the acting school very very well, I am a 17-year-old teenager who wants to start with this right now, I feel very excited about that, I am from Mexico and I have some questions that overwhelm me.
    I'm a little worried about the residency because I don't really work at the moment and I don't have money for certain things, does the school support you with this type of thing?
    I mean transportation, food or something?
    I have never been to an acting school, I have not been in plays but in my heart this is something that I would like to do and become a professional actor, so I had thought about gaining knowledge in small courses and finally going to this school

    I'm 17 years old currently, and I am considering looking into the school. I think I am going to give it a shot, but is there a way to raise my level of confidence about performing in front of people? I don't believe there will be an opportunity at school for a while as they are replacing the stage.

    Hey, I really want to become an actress and move to New York. I have been looking for colleges to attend. However, I don’t have much experience or techniques. Since you attend one of these schools, are you required to know anything about acting? Or have any experience?

    • @ronaldogiacomo787
      @ronaldogiacomo787  Před 3 lety +4

      No, I d say select a good monologue. Memorize it and then find what are the similarities and differences between you and the character. A good monologue should be of a character that is of similar age range to you. make sure you are confident when you perform it. but auddition now.
