About me:

.... .. .. .. ๑۩۞۩๑ AUTOBIOGRAPHY ๑۩۞۩๑ : At the age of six I attended Kit Carson an elementary school located in San Diego, California. I wanted to join in on the play my school was putting on, and I was selected to play Abraham Lincoln. I dressed up in costume, beard, hat and all and recited Abe's Lincoln famous speech, it was about forty five seconds long, my first time acting in a play. I walked up to give my speech and I was so nervous I was shaking. I didn't know how I was going to pull it off, it had only taken me thirty minutes to memorize my lines, but when I walked on stage I felt as tho I couldn't remember anything, then suddenly when I started to speak the words flowed out smoothly, word for word. I was acting, occasionally I would glance down at my lines, and before I knew it, I was finished. I looked out at the entire school sitting in the audience, smiled, and everyone stood up and started clapping, I was not so nervous anymore. I felt confident, and at that time I decided to become an actor., there was something that continued to draw me to this craft and I have continued to act since the age of six years old, and I am present day still pursuing my dream. I love being an actor because it has been a passion of mine since age six. I believe I have a gift for acting, and a natural talent. Being an actor is fun and hard work at the same time, I also believe it is a lifestyle. Being an actor has always been the type of work I truly enjoyed doing. I love being on set, at the studio, working with fellow actors, and director's. I understand what the director wants, and I take direction well. I love getting into character, and it is the greatest thing to become someone else and project that on screen and stage. I know that fame comes with being an actor, but I would rather be known as a skilled actor in this craft, than an actor with a familiar face. I handle rejection well, Because I am very confident when I audition. I am self driven and always give one hundred percent and accomplish my goals. **Contact me for booking COMP-Cards Available.. & ***CURRENT PASSPORT.. ..Derek Colin Elias | Promote Your Page Too
