Fine Art Schools

ok, so i'm going to this art school for theatre/drama. i have a pretty average body size ( B= 35" W = 30" H= 35") and I was wondering if I should lose some weight to make SURE i can fit into their costumes and do all of the things their classes require me to do as well as i can. i have a pretty high energy level as it is when it comes to performing, but i just wanted to ask if i should lose a bit just to be safe.

Well,

The entertainment business is requiring more and more "perfect bodies every day". If you are a good actress but you are not slim, may be you can be "good at character roles".

In My Opinion you are not fat, 35" 30" 35" is not a slim model type but you are not a fat woman. However, you will fit better the costumes if you are slim or skinny. I have never being slim in my life, my body type is same as yours.

I had a problem just once. I made an audition for a new Opera in Puerto Rico, every body loved my voice but they though I did not have the "right look" for the role. I was too short, too dark and too fat for the role. At the end they call me and gave me the role any way! So as you see even in the Opera world we face these problems too.

If you are planning to lose weight then my advice is to do it in a healthy way. You can walk every day, to walk is an excellent aerobic exercises and that will help you with your stamina on stage, eat healthy, drink water, do some stretch exercises every day, to be flexible on stage is good thing. I would recommend you to do PILATES, that is an excellent exercises to make your body strong, burn calories, look better and feel better.

Please don't stop eating, just modify your diet.

If you think to lose weight will help you in your acting, then go for it girl!

Good Luck!

Want to hear some academic babble concerning the art of film? Well then this one's for you. A faux-art film born from boredom and the decision to play around with some editing techniques. Sorry the text is kind of hard to read on the small video available for download…

Which is the better option…going to art school for four years to learn graphic design or teaching yourself with tutorials and book?

School

I’ve practise art and design for many years and taught myself graphic design.

However, it’s a hard industry to break into, and I’ve found that most companies won’t give you a chance unless you are qualified in the subject!

think about it. historians say if he had gone to art school none of the mess in germany would have happened.

Yes I do

I am currently 13, but when I turn 18 I plan on going to an Art specialated school. I need to find one thats in Ohio or close to it. Thanks you!

Almost all state universities in Ohio have fine arts schools where you can major in a particular type of art. The larger universities will offer more different types of majors in arts than smaller state universities. A good way to learn about these programs is to go to the university's website, and then find the specific webpage for their "school of fine arts".

There are several private "art institutes" or "music institutes" in Ohio that are schools entirely devoted to art like the Cleveland Institute of Art, or the Art Institute of Cincinnati. Oberlin College is another very well nationally respected arts and music school.

Another thing to consider about an arts school – other than its reputation – is its location. You might want to be in or near a big city like Cleveland, because you have easier access to museums, galleries, and theater. Cleveland does in fact have the most prestigeous museums, galleries, and theater in the state of Ohio – and some of the best in the country. So I would think that Cleveland State, Cleveland Institute of Art, and Case Western would be really good places to look at.
