if you get "discovered" by an agent you only have to pay nothing or just a small amount put yourself out there participate in talent shows talk to your mom and dad about getting professional photos taken to bring them to agents and they just might hire you for a small amount...

i suggest you to start off with youtube.. Post videos of ur singing and try to become popular there.. And people will offer you from there

Good Luck!!

since you can't get an agent, i suppose that you wait until high school to really show off your skills. b/c in hs, you can attract other high profile theater arts colleges to come see you and give you scholarships. if you get noticed by a top notched acting school and you go there, your pretty much set for life. just make sure you keep getting better, and work hard b/c it pays off in the end. but rite now, just go to theaudition, and see what the judges have to say, b/c if your as good as you say, i dont think your gonna need an agent. im sure you will make it big some day.

Okay. Well.
Your parents have to be behind you with this 100%.
BUT Agents DO NOT COST MONEY!
if they make you pay for what their doing, then they're a scam.
The agents get paid when you do.
There should be NO monthy charge or entrance fee.

Plus, you had said that when you're at the audition they won't pay attention to you. That's not true, becaus you won't be at the audition. Agents know where all the auditions are, and you would never hear about them from like the newspaper or online.

So you NEED the agent.

Headshots cost $$ not agents.

The first thing you will need is a theatrical agent
to help represent you.
Look in the telephone yellow pages under theatrical agents
to find one for you.

Also, check with the "Screen Actors Guild" in
Los Angeles, California...They can provide a list
of agents reliable agents to represent you.

For one thing, your agent can get all the information
on stuff like this, what times/dates and locations to
go to.

Your agent can get you thru MUCH MORE FASTER
than if you did it yourself.

Also, if you are UNDER 18 years of age, you
will need a parent or legal guardian to sign
legal documents and contracts. Being under 18 years
old you are considered LEGALLY a minor.

Production companies look at people with
agents FIRST than the ones without agents.
