    How to approach an idol politely?

    Ran into a really famous actor in my neighborhood while waiting in line. I wanted to say hi love your work I'm an actress too etc etc. but was too shy. Ugh!!! I always feel a little guilty for not saying hi to certain incredible actors, musicians, directors...

    Last week, I posted about how I got to audition for my first role in a feature. I was offered a role yesterday. It's not the part I read for, but it's a role with dialog and name credit. Plus some cool CGI moments. It took me 10 years to get here, but it's...

    The Future of VA
