Here's how to start:

1. Do school plays
2. Branch out and do some community theatre.
3. Once you have a name in the community, start auditioning for local commercials in print work.
4. Usually after a year of commercials/print work, you will have enough credits to catch the eye of an agent. Send your resume, headshot and cover letter out to SAG registered agencies, which you can find here: http://www.sag.org

5. In 4-9 weeks, the agencies if interested, will get back to you. Then you will be called in for a formal audition in which you will likely have to do 2 contrasting monologues and if you sing or dance, sing a song, or do a dance. That will probably be followed by a Q & A. Hopefully, then they will sign you.

6. Once you have an agent, you'll hace access to many auditions, in which you can audition for many top roles. It will take awhile to get in DC or in feature films, so start out small and do guest appearances etc, and work your way up.

7. Then after blood, sweat, and tears, you can be landing the prime roles you want.

Now, for Disney, singing and dancing is a plus, clearly, they like to have multi-talented teens.

As for looks, you look fine, but remember, looks aren't everything, and often roles call out for people of specific types, you don't want to blend in with all the other pretty people!

As for people to introduce you to, I am not familiar with anyone in the area, but ask someone like your church choir director or someone involved with community theatre with you, and ask if they know anyone who can help you, chances are they will. It's a small world!


Also, you should know that Disney does not have open call/ post auditions on the internet. Be wise about who you trust!

Now, if you have the support of your parents, you should be good to go!

Good luck, hope this helps!

your okayy pretty but just admit it, your fishing for complements.

send me yours photo please if you want asian movies

maybe u can try modelling also
i dont know about where u are from, but some models in my country get noticed (if they r lucky) and get to try out acting too

at least u get media exposure when modelling

you are really pretty! and if you've got the talent...i say go for it! okay disney...hmm...well i know that they hold the usual auditions. check out the disney website, remember seeing some info on working for them as an entertainer. might be a good place to start, working at disneyland.

notice nov. 19th??

are you interested in becoming famous or in the art itself? there's a big difference. if you are interested in acting, you need to take some classes, get professionally trained in order to build a solid career.
if not, well...make sure you are paris hilton

it's not that tough to be an actress. just be prepared to sleep with people to get jobs. I know of top actors who are still bisexual simply to get a part. guess that's the way of the world.

You are a btful young lady,if you're in FL. can't you apply at Disney for the summer and work your way up from there?You need to get you a portfolio,lots of pictures with different poses.Fully clothed of course and very tasteful and turn them in to Disney in a well put together folder with a resume stating your talents.You said something about your church,maybe your pastor can even help get you started with your parents permission.Goodluck sweetie.

Keep try and keep working and before you know it you'll be there.

Getting friendly with a producer may help

Disney seems so fun. Go for it.

Here are 17 things you could start to do today. It would be better if you had at least some training though. Anyway, have a look: http://www.actingcareerstartup.com/how_t...
