So, you want to be an actor. Now the question is: What kind? You may even try out in every category you have skills in or decide that you want to take acting classes to further your skills so you can try a different type of acting. There is a lot more to the industry than starring in the next Hollywood blockbuster or Netflix series. A helpful way to sort different types of acting opportunities is by medium in Syracuse, New York:
Screen Actors: Films, television, commercials, web series
Stage Actors: On-Broadway and off-Broadway, musical theatre
Voice Actors: Animation, radio ads, podcasts, video games, audiobooks
Your acting technique will vary depending on your medium. Acting for the camera is very different from acting for a live audience; doing commercial voiceover work will require different training than preparing for a musical theatre audition. Of course, many actors move from stage to screen and back again through their career. But it may be helpful, as you begin your acting career to consider which medium you are most interested in.
