What Is Child Acting Like Today?

With minimal child labor laws during the early days of Hollywood, child stars had it rough. When they misbehaved, studio employees locked them up in windowless sound rooms, giving them only a block of ice to sit on. When Shirley Temple was just 12 years old, an MGM producer threw her out after she giggled when he exposed himself to her. Judy Garland was given amphetamines to keep going as a teenager, which ultimately led to her addiction and early death from an overdose at the age of 47, as an article on the dark origins of Hollywood stardom notes. 

Fortunately, things have changed significantly since then. While it still requires hard work, there are laws and rules in place that must be followed by producers and anyone else working with a child actor on the set today. Even child stars who are emancipated minors require following certain rules with California Labor Laws very clear as to how they are treated. They've been put in place to protect the kids as well as the filmmakers and include requirements like half-hour meal breaks and getting at least an hour of recreation time on the set.

While being a child actor can be challenging due to busy schedules, perhaps having to turn down invites to birthday parties and the like, it can also bring many benefits.

Public Speaking Experience

Child actors are practicing public speaking whenever they're standing in front of a casting director auditioning or performing to a sold-out house. That translates to an adult who is comfortable speaking in front of people, which can be a huge benefit personally and professionally in many careers in addition to acting.

Greater Self-Confidence

Confidence is important for school, careers, relationships, and life as a whole. Acting is a great way for young people to understand how to think outside of the box, appraise situations and be more confident when going into unfamiliar situations. They learn to trust in their abilities and their ideas, which can help them go far, even if it's not a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

 
Memory Skills

Memory is a skill that takes a lot of practice, including memorizing lines. The tricks child actors have to use to remember their lines are going to be invaluable when it comes to studying for tests in school or simply remembering the names of people they meet at a business conference as adults.

Communication Skills

Acting is all about communication, bringing the opportunity to improve both verbal and nonverbal communication skills, which benefit young people throughout their lives. It can improve their tone of speech and articulation as well as observation and listening skills.

Strong Work Ethic

Kids in the acting business naturally learn at a much younger age the importance of being on time and prepared for an audition or a booking. If they aren't, they will understand quickly that arriving late on the set or goofing around is something that will get you fired. That's a lesson far better learned early on than as an adult when it can have more serious consequences. 03/31/2021 (Bits of Rocks)

Featuring the Our Lady of Grace Church!

In the observance of the Holy Week or Lenten season, I will feature here in The Rock Land the church which plays an impact in my life, the Our Lady of Grace Church in Caloocan City!

Since Caloocan is my former home town, one of the churches I usually visit is the said church commonly called as the Grace Church. From grade schools until now that I'm already working, the said church is where I pray and talk to our Dear Lord regarding my wishes, giving thanks to my blessings, and asking forgiveness.

So as my Holy Week tribute, I'll feature series of posts for my beloved church. To start with, here is the main altar of the church:

Every Sunday, if I'm not busy or whenever I go to Monumento to shop, I visit this church and pray. From my childhood days up to now, I see lots of improvement in this church!

In my next post, I'll feature the saints in this church whom I always pray with! c",)

Growing Creatures (Part 3)

After I get out my eight creatures from the plastic pack, they were now ready to be submerged in water. All of them were really, really excited to grow!

Do you imagine where will I put them? Do you foresee how they will be placed? Am I going to place them in a jar or in bottle? Or maybe you will thinking that I will place them in a basin of water just like I did before during my childhood?!

Well, take a look at them:

In a Circular Jar

Ready to be Submerged

Now do you already know where will I put them? Exactly...! You're correct!

As you can see, they were preliminary putted on the cover of a circular mini-jar. Yup, that circular thing where they were placed was not a basin. Rather it was a cover of a mini-jar. And yes, I will put them in that mini-jar!

But why did I put them in the circular cover? Am I doing something else?! Well actually, I am measuring the capacity of that mini-jar. I'm wondering if they eight can be fitted together in that jar! What's my findings...?!

Well, that will be the big question! On my next post, you will find out! Let us see how they were be fitted! To be continue... C",)

Growing Creatures (Part 2)

Welcome back to the sequel of my growing creatures series! After I showed you my tiny creatures inside their plastic pack after I bought them, time now to remove them on their shield. And these how they look like!

As I have said, two types of creatures were inside a plastic pack. I have a total of four plastics. Therefore all my growing creatures were equal to eight! I have eight different creatures, tiny for now but later they were grow big!

So small, so tiny, but colorful. You may take a glance on them:

The Creatures Were All Excited to Submerge in Water

Fall In Line...First Come, First Serve!

Just like what you see, I have a frog, a turtle, a reptile, a dinosaur, a fish, a lizard, and two starfish! They were too cute though too small in size by now! Hmmm...have you imagine how they will look when they grow?!

Another thing that I have observed, seems that these creatures were both can live on land and on water! Like the frog, the turtle, the reptile and the starfish! But of course except for the lizard and the dinosaur which could only live on land while the fish is only for water! But in their case, they have no choice! Yeah all of them will live in water in order to grow!

What will happen next on them? Are we all ready to see them submerge on water? What other things we will do?! Well catch up the third part of this exciting growing creatures! See you later! To be continue... C",)

Growing Creatures (Part 1)

Last Sunday when we went shopping with my mom in a nearby supermarket, I found these cute little things which eventually brought back my childhood memories. Yup, this is one of my favorite toys which I loved to play during my kiddie days!

I didn't exactly know what the name of this toy. But since this type of toy eventually grow when you put it into water for a couple of days, I just termed it as "Growing Creatures" toy!

Remembering back my childhood moments playing with this kind of toy, I eventually bought four plastic of it!

Four Plastics of Growing Creatures

Two Types of Creatures in One Plastic

I Can't Wait to see Them Growing

Usually this toy is in the form of dinosaurs, crocodiles, or any wild large forms of animals. At first, they were too small! But when you place them in water then wait at least one, two, or three days, they will eventually grow! A former tiny thing then become a big stuff!

I bought four plastics of this small toy. Each plastic contains two types of creatures. These creatures inside the plastics were fish, dinosaurs, frog, reptile, lizard, and star fish!

I'm not yet putting them into water or taking them out from their plastic. Oh, I'm too excited to see them growing!

What will I do next? How will they look like when they grow? Well, we will answer those questions on my next posts. To be continue... C",)

Batang 90's Ka Ba?!

Are you a 90's baby?! If you're, well definitely you will like this the way I do:

• Masaya ka kapag naglalaro ka ng Tex at Pog. Kadalasan ang design dito ay yung mga palabas sa TV, mga drama o kaya anime, may dialogue pa. lol.

• May comics pa ang bazooka. Kahit di mo maintindihan yung Fortune Cookie sa huli ay collection mo pa rin yun.

• Uso pa yung tirador, yung gawa talaga sa sanga ng puno. (pero ang alam ko na tirador nung bata ako eh ung dalawang stick ng bananaQ gagawin mong ekis tapos goma tapos Stork Candy wrapper para sa lagayan ng bato. ^^)

• Ang mga babae naglalaro ng paper dolls na tigpipiso bawat isang set sa sari-sari store.

• Kung lalake ka, siguradong may pellet gun ka.

• Humihingi ka ng dalawang piso sa magulang mo para maglaro ng video arcade sa sari-sari store. Favorite mo yung Sonic, Mario at Street Fighter at Tetris.

• Nagwa-watusi ka kapag New Year kahit pinapagalitan ka ng nanay mo.

• Meron kang sapatos na umiilaw yung swelas kapag iniaapak mo. Mas sikat kung iba-iba yung kulay. Tinawag rin itong "Mighty Kid"

• Merong at least isang Chicago Bulls na shirt sa bahay nyo. Madalas number 23 pa yung nakalagay.

• Pinapatulog ka ng yaya/nanay mo tuwing tanghali o hapon para raw lumaki. Hindi na kasi pinapatulog ang mga bata ngayon tuwing tanghali di tulad nung panahon natin.

• Sinasabihan ka ng matatanda na may lalabas na pari o bigas sa sugat mo kapag hindi nilagyan ng alcohol pero in the end, betadine lang ang magpapatahimik sa inyo.

Voltes V versus Bioman

• Kung babae ka, nagkaroon ka ng butterfly hairclips/rings. (si Jolina ang nagpauso nito.) haha.

• Kung medyo may pera ang pamilya nyo, nagpabili ka ng Polly Pocket.

• Naglalagay ka ng Kisses (yung mabango) sa pencil case mo, o kaya sa isang lalagyan na may bulak, alcohol at tinutusok ng karayom para mabilis manganak.

• May free stickers ng Disney movies sa loob ng Maggi noodles.

• Pinapatunog mo yung takip ng Gatorade.

• Ang mga stationeries na uso: Papemelroti, Tsukuba, Sashikibuta. Pwedeng ibenta, pwedeng trade lang.

Bazooka Comics

• Pampalipas oras mo dati ang paglalaro ng Brick Game, at swerte yung mga may advanced version na may tumatagos na blocks para mapuno na yung gap sa loob. Mas advanced ka kung Tamagotchi ang nilalaro mo. Pinapakain mo, pinapatulog mo, at inililibing mo kung namatay na. At kung talagang kaya nyong bumili, Game Boy ang sayo. Pero kung wala ka talaga, yung laruan na lang na may tubig sa loob tapos dapat ma-shoot mo yung mga bilog sa stick na maliit.

• Bago magsimula ang klase, nakikilaro ka muna sa 10-20, jackstone, langit lupa, ice water, taguan, dr. quack quack, tumbang preso, pepsi seven up at agawan base, brikidam 123. Di bale nang madumi na ang uniform mo pagpasok ng classroom.

• Sinasabi mo sa kaklase mo na "Liars go to hell" kapag tingin mo nagsisinungaling sya. "Cross my heart, hope to die" kapag nangangako ka. "Period no erase" kapag gusto mo walang kumontra sayo. Kaya lang wala kang lusot kapag sinabi ng kaklase mo na "Akin yung factory ng pambura".

I Love Collecting Funny Comics!

• Sikat ka pag ang pencil case mo nabubuksan sa dalawang side tapos maraming attachments like magnifying lens, book stand, compartments na maliliit tapos push button pa. Minsan sa ibabaw ng pencil case meron pang maze, may maliit na silver na bola tapos itatagilid mo yung pencil case para gumulong yun, hanggang sa matapos yung maze.

• Di ka baduy kung ang notebook mo nung elementary ay may mukha ng artista.

• Sa coolman mo inilalagay ang tubig na baon mo sa school.

• Nagpabili ka ng Baby-G sa magulang mo.

• Elementary ka nung nauso ang pager. Yun pa ang pinapangarap ng mga bata, hindi pa cell phone.

• Meron ka pa rin ng pinakamalaking cell phone na nakatago na ngayon sa mga kahon.

A Lover of Horror!

Halloween...Halloween...Halloween...!!!

Halloween, All Saint's Day, and All Souls Day were fast approaching. We will again celebrate the tradition we grow with every November 1. Nearing this period, ghost stories, supernatural encounters, and mysteries brought by the different elemental creatures and spirits were all the topics on TV, radio, and print media.

And did you know that I love those things!?

A Collection of Horror Movies...I Like!

Different Horror Themes!

Yeah I really love horrors! Horror is my genre. I love horror films, horror TV series, horror TV programs specially the documentary and news features every Halloween, horror topics on radio programs, horror stories, and anything that were frightening and terrifying.

Let's start with the movies. Yeah, I love horror films. It started in my childhood. My mother and I love to see horror films. I remember on my childhood days, during weekends when there was new horror film on Cinemas, me and my mom watched movies on malls together.

From childhood up to now, I like horror films! FYI...my favorite movie genres were horror and romance! Ooopps...I will reveal....the third genre I love most were sexy and bold movies specially the bold Indie films nowadays! Hahaha...you know now one of my desires...!!

Back to horror movies, yeah, I have a collection of different horror films in my TV rack. Horror films from the different countries. Filipino, Asian, American horrors...I haver it! Ooopps...don't dare to ask what my other movie and DVD collections 'coz you're gonna be shocked! Hahaha!!!

"The Grudge"...It Came With Different Versions

"Doll Master"...One of Korean Best Horror

I Like Dracula!

Being a lover of different TV series, yup, horror was also my type! I thanked Primetime Bida when they aired on TV new horror-series like "Patayin Sa Sindak Si Barbara", "Maligno", "Florinda", and "La Vendetta"! I used to be avid viewers of those shows!

Even on radio programs, I keep tunning on my favorite AM program every midnight like "Stargazzer's Pinoy Vibes" which tackles supernatural things. Specially now were on the season of Halloween, their topics were all about ghost and spirits!

"Fengshui"...One of the Best Filipino Horror Movie

"Sukob"...A Combination of Two Best Horror Actress!

Different Faces of Horror

Since Halloween, even other TV programs like news and documentary shows were all dominated by ghost topics. If you can still recall every Halloween season, the former TV program of Noli De Castro "Magandang Gabi Bayan" features a special episodes about different ghost stories, spirits, and supernatural encounters. Starting from my childhood, I was an avid viewer of that Kabayan show during this ghost season. Hope that they will air it again or revive it on TV.

But today, I was glad that the ABS-CBN current affairs program "XXX" hosted by Julius Babao, Pinly Web, and Alex Santos allots a special Halloween episode every end of October or early November! But I failed to watch their ghost episode last Monday because since they moved their timeslot from Saturday to Monday night, it's too late in the evening. I can't watch it anymore, I have to wake up early in the morning for my work since I'm in a dayshift!

Dark Angel

Vampires...One of mY Favorite Horror!

I'm Afraid of Horror in Real Life!

And another FYI on my horror hobby, did you know that during my childhood days, I have a lot of Comics collection? Yeah, majority of these were horror comics like "Dracula" (my favorite), "Nightmare", "ESP", and other. Of course, my other favorite comics that was not horror was "Funny Komiks". I remember that I cried my mom if she didn't bought me comics! Everytime we go to the market, I always point "Dracula" comics! Ohh...I missed those days!

Of course I also read horror pocketbooks! I love the ghost stories on those pocketbooks. Wayback 1994 when comics were slowly vanishing, my mom bought me horror pocketbooks. I enjoy reading them specially the 3-in-1 story in the "Friday The 13TH" pocketbook!

Horror...horror...horror....!!!! I really love them! I like ghost stories and mysteries! But wait, I love horror but I was afraid to see ghost! Yeah, I was frightened to see white lady, dwarf, ghost, and other supernatural creatures. Good that my third eye was closed...!!!

How about you!? Do you also love horror!? Share it with me...! HAPPY HALLOWEEN...!!!! c",)
