What is acting to you? :)

So many people think acting is just being on a stage with a script and pretending to be someone different. Yes, stages are involved, but that's more for theatre ;). And yes, you are pretending to be someone else. A different 'character'. Acting is a way of improving your confidence, presence and ability to deal with nerves, which (I found out the hard way) can prove to be helpful in interviews! You don't have to want to be an actor to do acting. I picked it up just as a hobby and because my Tuesday nights were pretty boring, and I actually really love it now! I do Acting for Screen so no singing or dancing is involved. So give acting a go!
