Dolphin Talent’s Acting + Industry Guide

Hi Guys … I was in Ohio at the State Thespian Competition this past weekend, and I was asked a question that I would like to talk about.  A girl asked me if she was too heavyto work in the business. Here is the scoop. It does not matter what you weigh; there is always a part for whatever size you are. Just look on the TV or the movies, and you see all types of bodies on the screen. With that said, be truthful to yourself about your looks. If you are a 4’2” girl you will most likely never get the role of a high fashion model. One of the most important ways to succeed in the acting business is to know what parts you are right for. Then position yourself to be the best you can be for that look. The more honest you are to yourself, the happier you will be in the business. If you look at yourself unrealistically, you will never be getting the part that you think you should get.  So don’t let weight, height or even age stop you, but learn the appropriate roles for you to play. Get to know yourself and go for it!
