Text The Late Bloomer Actor a Question or Comment.

A very special episode this month where I interview my son Connor Clark.  In this conversation, Connor discusses his journey and aspirations in the acting industry. He shares his experience preparing for university and the benefits of formal education in acting. 

Connor also talks about his favorite movie and TV show locations explored while we enjoyed a family holiday in the USA over Christmas and the New Year. Also, the impact of a Broadway show, namely Back To The Future (the Musical)  on his perception of theater. 

He reflects on when he first knew he wanted to be an actor and the importance of finding a supportive group of actors.

 Finally, Connor reflects on what he has learned from my acting journey and the importance of the business side of acting.

Takeaways

  • Formal education in acting can provide valuable training and a diverse set of skills.
  • Experiencing different movie and TV show locations can inspire and deepen an actor's connection to their craft.
  • Theater productions, such as Broadway shows, can showcase the possibilities and complexities of acting.
  • Finding a supportive group of actors can enhance the acting experience and provide a sense of community.
  • Approaching auditions with confidence and a belief in oneself can positively impact the performance.
  • Balancing theater and film acting can provide a well-rounded skill set and open up more opportunities.
  • Technology can both enhance and change the acting industry, requiring actors to adapt and stay informed.
  • Acting requires a willingness to step out of one's comfort zone and embrace vulnerability.
  • The business side of acting, including maintaining a professional online presence, is important for career development.
