Can you help to write a letter about advantages and disadvantages of being an actor?

Answer 1

disadvantages:

• Being poor, desperate and vulnerable to parasites.
• Working and living with other actors.
• Developing an obsession with ones physical and psychological appearance.
• Being part of an art form which is tedious, predictable, and stagnant.
• stage fright.
• Only being asked to do types of movies that your not into. e.g. romance, comedy ect

advantages:

• being an actor is like wearing a mask, you can act in ways that you normally wouldn't
• working and living with other actors (it can be positive too!)
• meeting lots of talented people and getting to work with them.
• learning the benefits of being professional. (although I'll admit many actors still havent learned this)
• possibly doing what you love. isn't that what counts in the long run? that your not stuck behind a desk doing something you hate?
