Question
i really want to become a singer i have a great voice i am also interested in acting can you help me with both?
plz responed ASAP


Answer
Who said that you have a great voice?

You or your voice coach or other singers...

Have you studied voice or acting anywhere yet?

If not that is what I suggest that you look into.

However as much as acting is important to a singer singing can be important to an actor.

I can't tell you where to find a voice coach or how to look for one.

I can tell you that if you want to find an acting coach then I suggest that you also look him/her up on imdb.com and make sure of their credentials.

Personal websites can be deceiving.

It's IMO best to work with someone that either was (recently, or are now) in the business.

Otherwise it's a little strange for me to understand how they can teach what they've never done themselves.

It sounds like you might look into doing some musicals, where you can both sing and act and even dance.

That's where I started out a long with millions of others in high school can college before venturing out to try and make it in the real world.

Good luck
