Interview of the Day: Actor Seth Green by Backstage

I was reading an interview of Seth Green in Backstage and was impressed by him; he said something quite interesting, which I agree strongly with, about acting and doing ensemble work, "Be excellent, always. Never rest. Do your homework, learn your lines, hit your marks, and be there for your other actors. That's how you stand out, I promise."

A typical day in the life of an Actor

Ahhh the life of an Actor! What the hell do we put ourselves though? Auditions after auditions after auditions … wearing our hearts on our sleeves … exposing ourselves in hope of getting that part we crave … waiting by the phone for the call that will decide our fate … then rolling our hearts back up when that call never comes. Smiling to our friends and loved ones while saying, “Nah, it is ok. There are other parts out there. I guess it wasn’t my fate.” When we are actually thinking, “What the fuck! How could I have messed that one up?” (Sigh) … strange bunch we are … schizophrenic at heart; we have to be! Why do we put ourselves through all this crap, all this heartache? Why … for the love of it all!
