What can I do at the moment now, stuck inside the house, to prepare for my dream of wanting to be an actor. I know it sounds insane but I'm looking for genuine advice. I wish to act in pictures or television, even commercials maybe.

Never mind. I regret posting this thread. In fact I meant, what can i do right now to get off my butt and find experience first
I was never the theater/drama type. I hope I'm not delusional. My reasons are hard to explain.

Find some hobby club in acting, there's bound to be an amateur acting group nearby.
Those places are great to get experience in, as well as to get rid of some stage fright and to teach a bit of social skills

I know that SAG/AFTRA have some YouTube video seminars on voice acting. Maybe they have others there as well.
