Actor Careers

If you can handle not having a steady job and working under pressure when you do have one, then acting may be for you. Actors need to fully commit themselves to their craft, as they tend to work long and irregular hours with travel often required. Actors can find work in theatre, radio, TV, video (DVD or online), or motion pictures. Some also end up teaching it.
