We had the good fortune of connecting with Brandon Greene II and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Brandon, what is the most important factor behind your success?
The most important factor behind my success was not giving up. I was afraid to act in front of people initially but I had to get over that. Not giving up has gotten me to where I am today.
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Being a child actor is not easy. Balancing homework and learning scripts takes work but when you love what you do schoolwork gets easier and so does learning the material.
I’m most excited about some of my upcoming projects. One would be walking during New York Fashion Week and the other would be a Talent Showcase this summer in LA.
I work hard. I told my mother that acting, dancing and singing is what I love to do and she helps me by ensuing that I get the proper training and support to excel at what I love. Oh and I like to cook…they call me “Cookin Brandon”!
No it is not easy but worth it. I get to go cool places, where cool clothes, meet new people, its awesome.
Ive learned to not give up. Sometimes the answer will be “no” and sometimes yes but you wont know unless you ask. Thats how I look at acting. You wont always get the role but its worth the try.
I want people to know that I am only 5yrs old and that this is just my beginning. I have so much more to offer. Look out for a special launch from me and maybe even a book or two.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Hmmm… I love Pizza so I would go anywhere that has pizza. I would also take them to the Sky Zone and swimming. I would also have to put Atlanta Hawks on the list because ” I like basketball a lot”. I would also go to Crab Man 305 because I love crab legs. And we would finish off with a sno- cone from Pelicans before heading over to Tyler Perrys studio for my dream tour.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My mommy! She has helped me to accomplish everything that I have to date. She is always right there for me and I am thankful for her.
