Try as hard as you can to act and think like your character your portraying. For ex: My old sister (who is now a senior) was in a play at our high school recently. She was playing a mother who had lost her husband to a drunk driver. So, to get into character, she asked our drama teacher, if she could put a ring on a necklace chain and pretend it was her husband's wedding ring. Well, our drama teacher liked it so much, he put it permanantly in the script! So, just think and act as your character. On or off stage. In front or behind the camera! I love that you want to go into acting! I do too. I'd love to be a co-star (notice I said: co-star. I feel like stars of shows are really snotty and bossy and spoiled) in one of Dan's future shows. But frankly I've from Michigan, so the odds I'd be able to are slim. But you never know. Just hold onto your dreams, and the only time it is appropriate to let them go, is when you are dying in a hospital bed at 90. :)
