Assessment 1 (b) Video reflection
I chose the profession of acting because from my childhood I wanted to be an actor. In childhood all the movies I watched, I was very much attracted to the acting of the actors. The acting of the theatre actors also fascinated me. From then I wanted to be an actor. This is the reason for what I chose my current profession.
I always learn from my profession. As an actor, I always learn new things, new techniques of acting with days. The variation of the roles of the actors excites me a lot. Every new role means new challenges. The new challenges excite me to chose my profession.
There are numbers of thing that I have learned while working in my profession in my country. I have learned to work together with my co-actors. I have learned to adjust with other people. I have learned to share the feeling with others. I have learned to manipulate the feelings of other persons. In the profession of acting, I have learned to play with any kind of emotion in me.
In the future, I have the hope of being an experienced theatre actor. Main concerns of mine are the betterment of my work. I want to work for new prospects. I want to take challenges of many new characters. The main thing I want to do in my acting career is to improve my acting skill.
In an ideal world in my profession, if need to change anything, I would want to change the differentiation between the actors and the stars. That ideal world will only have actors. There will be no ‘Star’.
