Here are five mistakes that child actors make. 1. The career some kids aspire to is not their dream…they are making someone else happy, i.e. the parents! 2. It’s great to aspire to have a career like Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Raven-Symoné or Dylan and Cole Sprouse, but you have to carve out your own path and not mimic your idol’s career. Be your own type of performer. The key is to be true to yourself and be proud of who you are. 3. Being unprepared in auditions. Meaning, not understanding the character you are reading for, not listening in character and not taking direction. For example, when asked to do the scene a different way, some young actors don’t have the ability yet to do that. As a result, the actor unfortunately ends up doing the reading exactly the same way. 4. Don’t arrive at an audition sick…stay home!! Cough-Cough…a No-No! 5. If a young actor does have success and they’re not prepared for [success] and don’t understand what comes with being famous. For example dealing with Paparazzi, constant interruptions in any normal activity, too much exposure on Twitter, Facebook, etc. I say, keep your personal information to yourself and off these sites.
