Skills Audit

My goals and ambitions are to successfully complete my Level 3 Extended Diploma in Acting whilst using the skills I have learnt from the course to find acting work in theatre and films. I will attend all the workshops on offer at the college and in my local community theatre 'Centre Stage' to gage as much experience as I can. I will also audition for acting agencies to be able to find more work in the industry and find more opportunities to perform in plays and films. To further my knowledge of acting and perfecting my techniques I will apply for drama school to continue learning and keep engaging in the world of arts and I find being surrounded by creativity keeps me motivated to work harder and achieve my goals. I am very committed and also very good at time-keeping skills, which is an important quality to have in the industry as you have to be on time to auditions and performed and you have to be committed to performing for as long as you're needed as in the acting world you could be up all night.

The strengths I obtain are dedication and determination, which will enable me to push myself to always work as hard and best as I can to achieve my full potential. I am also hard working and love learning new things so this level of curiosity and passion for the arts will carry me through to pursue my career in acting. I enjoy working effectively with different types of people which is important as theatre demands actors to work together cooperatively for the production to succeed and run smoothly. Many aspects of theatre involve setting and achieving specific goals. I am task-oriented and capable of finding practical ways to achieve goals. I enjoy acting and performing so this passion and drive to learn more and better myself will keep me not just motivated but determined. I am eager to learn more which is positive because as an actor you are constantly growing and establishing your skills and techniques. I also respond well to criticism which is something I used to struggle with but now take it on board as use it to improve my work.

I would like to take part in community theatre shows, short films and advertisements to expand on my acting CV. Eventually my long term goal is to move to the USA and explore creative opportunities in film and TV, as I am inspired by the energy and motivation carried in the Arts in America and I would like to expand my experiences and work with a range of different acting coaches and directors.
