Education Requirements

In order to be an exceptional actor, one must have a lot of training in front of the camera. Most are also required to have an Associate's Degree in acting and performance arts.

Pros

There are some very good benefits from acting. For one thing, you'll become famous! And,even better, the average annual salary is $33,180! Sure, it doesn't sound like much, but there's a lot you can do with that kind of money!

Work Expectations

An actor must have superior communication and listening skills, punctuality, and reliability, be able to work well in a team,take instruction and criticism, have self-discipline and stamina.

Job

Description

Cons

Actors communicate a character and/or situation to an audience through speech, body language, and movement.It inevitably incorporates periods of unemployment, underemployment, and alternative employment. Work activities may vary depending on contract.

Hours

But, unfortunately, every pro must have its own con(s). For example, you DO get paid a lot of money per year, but no one actually becomes rich from being an actor.There's also the fact that acting very often incorporates periods of unemployment, underemployment and alternative employment. So, if acting is your career path, you'll probably need to work another job when you're not doing anything involving acting.

Hours may be long and unsocial. May be required to attend a recording or event at very short notice. Some activities may occur in the UK as well as touring around the world for certain events.
