<p>Chase Soria</p><p>Every budding actor knows acting is a difficult gig. There will be grueling auditions and punishing rejections. If you're lucky, there'll be roles that pay the bills and even roles that won't.</p><p>Roles we don't believe in.</p><p>But that's what acting is-acting as if we do believe in them.</p><p>So when the semester's production project is announced and I'm cast as one of the leads, I'm ecstatic. A lot of responsibility, a lot of work, but I'm up for it. Even when I find out what my role is and who my partner is. Amos, the brooding James Dean wannabe, is my on-screen boyfriend. Which is great, except for the fact he hates me.</p><p>I can do this. It's just acting.</p><p>Nothing more.</p><p><br></p><p>Amos Beddington</p><p>The 90s are back, apparently. 90210 and Friends, but with a reality TV spin, which means cameras following us around as if they're capturing the everyday lives of Franklin U students.</p><p>Me, but not me.</p><p>Me, with no more than a character description, no script or screenplay. Method acting, being the character 24/7, not just when the cameras are rolling. With a campus boyfriend.</p><p>Method acting is immersive and intense, and it can be confusing if the lines begin to blur. I mean, I've dreamed of being with the irritatingly gorgeous and annoyingly popular Chase Soria, and now I have to be his on-screen boyfriend?</p><p>I'm a good actor, sure. But how can I be convincing when I'm not sure I can even convince myself? </p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
