Today we’d like to introduce you to Victoria Abbott.
Victoria, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
I started acting right around the beginning of 8th grade when I first moved to California. I fell absolutely head over heels in love with it, and that love still hasn’t gone away as I’m now going into my sophomore year of college. The first job I ever booked was a Disney infinity commercial when I was 13. I’ve just been auditioning and filming ever since. Most recently, before the quarantine, I booked and filmed a Joji music video that is out now!
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road working in this industry. You hear no a lot more than you hear yes in this world, and it used to take its toll on me reasonably hard. Rejection never feels good, but its something I’ve gotten comfortable with. I’m not always what a casting director is looking for, and that’s okay. It makes hearing a yes all the better.
We’d love to hear more about your work and what you are currently focused on. What else should we know?
I’m an actress with Bella Agency, LA. I mainly do commercial and music video work. I’ve been out auditioning for tv and film as well. I recently filmed a pilot for a tv show that’s currently in post-production, which is something I’m very proud of and cant wait to see.
Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
My favorite memory would probably have to be the first concert I went to when I was in 8th grade. It was a crown the empire show at the Wiltern in Hollywood, and they were my absolute favorite band at the time and hold a special place in my heart today.
