Hello everyone!

I' m a 24 years boy and i'm Italian!

Since one year i've decided to become an actor

Unlikily, i live in a country where actor job is not appreciated like it must be... so for me is really difficult...

I' ve just finished a screenplay school... so i'm a screenplayer now... but i'm still young and i want to become an actor too... so, in september, i will try to be accepted in a famous italian acting school and, than, i' d like to move in Englan or America, learn the english (you can see that i need it ) and reallay act!

Now i'm studing Stanislavskij books and pratice a little acting course in my little city to prepare me for the ammission exams.

My parents are not agree... so is eaven more difficult for me

I'm here to make some new international friends and meet people from all over the world (above all from London and LA) to begin to know how i'll have to move to realized my dreams... i hope in your help and experience!

I'm determinate and i want to break wall wthat divides Italy actors from hollywood... i don't want money, i don't want fame... i just want to act in the best way!!!!

Act is the only way to became immortal!!!

Sincerely ICHIGO! (i prefer don't say my name that i hate LOL!

Well, hello hello. Welcome to the forum... I live in West Virginia, but I am an actor in my community theatre... You can look at my profile on http://www.nextcat.com/stephonika I suggest that you make your own profile on here too. It's free, and you can network with people already in the biz. Please notify me when/if you create a profile... I'd like to become friends and share experiences... Hope all goes well, and talk to me if you ever need someone to shoot the breeze with [to talk about things to get them off your mind and feel better] or for whatever. See you in a movie someday!

Hei

Thanks a lot...!

I don't know what AIM is... i'll take a look on the net

My career? Oh, well... it will be very hard! First because i live in Italy (and in the schools, many time, are accepted only people "WHO KNOW" other people inside... )... i wanna escape from this country! I have no future here!

And your career? how is?

P.S How old are you?

SWK78 · 04-08-2007, 04:09 PM

My jobs so far have all been either school or community plays.. You can look at my blog for this on my nextcat.com page [in the upper right hand corner]. My favorite job was doing Shakespeare... And I am turning 18 next month. You? How old are you?

Anyway.. I'm shooting a short film beginning in May [hopefully... as I have come to some conflicts amongst crew members recently]. I am working on a wizard novel... and also a sci-fi trilogy is in the making in books too... I plan to adapt both to film when they're done.. Also, I have an idea for a video game adaptation. Other ideas for short films and features are somewhere in my head too... So, lots of projects that I'm working on and off on. I plan for an acting, writing, directing, and producing career. I am also an artist. [You can see my art preferances on nextcat. I have one of my ink pieces posted in the photos section.]

So just acting for you? Or do you plan to take on other film industry jobs as well?

Fate Bless,

18... you are very young

I'm 24

I've done a screenplay school, i've write a short movie and next week i'll start to do it!Than i'll try to win some contest. I'm waiting to do an ammission exam for an acting school in september

Anyway, i've added you in AIM, (NinjaKSword) I hope to see you soon on AIM

SWK78 · 04-09-2007, 08:08 AM

A screenplay school. That's good. Doing what you can at the moment is the best thing that you can be doing. And yeah, the turning 18 thing throws some people when I tell them that by the way I write and express myself. But I've been "seriously" working on writing books and screenplays for about five or six years now. I started my sci-fi trilogy when I was 13, and I finished it up kinda nice about 3 or 4 years later. But it needs a terrible rewrite, as many publishers and agents have rejected it, therefore, it has been shelved while I work on my new book about wizards and elves and the like.

What genre of movies do you write and plan to act in? I plan for many fantasy films and sci-fi films. The occassional horror suspense I suppose, if the mood strikes. But fantasy is my real playing field.

I'll write fantasy books too... in Harry Potter style (that i really adore... and i'd like to become a wolk on less in the 6th or 7th movie...). I have 3 greats idea yet (about fantasy books), but i belive i'm not ready now

I'm planning to study english in this two year while i'm doing acting school, than move to London (that i adore) and start lik appearance on famous theatre (in little parts, in this way i can learn english very well) and than, when i'll be 28/29 and i'll know english, move on United States and try my fortune!
