A trained actor knows that his or her talent may be turned to learning new skills, so when it comes to considering your work opportunities, you should keep an open mind about potential roles you are prepared to consider for yourself. This is particularly true if your experience is in doing modelling work. The question may be for you: what is the best way to ‘cross over’ into acting?
There are plenty examples of models who have turned their experience and looks to good use in expanding their career into acting, and a good way of ‘testing the water’ is to make yourself available for acting auditions and casting calls. If a production company decides that you have the right look for the part they are hoping to fill, then it will very often help you to learn any particular performance skills you need for the role.
If you are not sure about how to develop and exploit the talents you have as effectively as possible then it is important for you to research the experience of others. You will often find ideas about how to promote your own career in studying what steps models and actors have taken before you. These ideas can sometimes be quite simple, but they often won’t occur to you if you don’t put in the work.
