Thank you to each and everyone of you who has made posts and/or commented on posts.
It’s helped me understand working in the industry in acting and not working in the industry.
I was acting very young and not working in the industry. I have thought about picking up acting again, but when I’m in a different phase of life. So, that wouldn’t be right now. This gives me an idea of what to expect, so I have realistic expectations.
I live in Detroit, so there’s not a lot of industry, but there are local films or movies being made. This way, as somebody in her late 40s, I would do a small role or be in a crowd or something. It takes the mystery and fear away of doing that.
For me, personally, working in the industry would not have been good for my temperament, unless I was doing it on the side somehow. That would be my plan if I pick up acting again. Of course, not working in the industry, like I did before, is OK too.
Anyway, thank you!
