Question: How can i find a good talent agent!?
Im a 13 year old girl who wants to act!. I am taking a class this summer for a week then going to a festival!. Real actors are going to be there!. My mother said if i do good at the festival and she sees that i want to act really bad, she would get me an agent!. there is just one problem, i dont know how to find any!. i live in a ghost town with nothing to help you get going in an acting career what so ever!. when i look on the internet, i find things but im not sure if they are real agencies or not i found two websites but have no idea if they are real!. if they are not plesae tell me another website or something!. i just really want to do this and i no im going to get rejected sometimes and its going to be hard but i really want to do this!. if you know any agents or there websites please tell me!.

Even though you live in a 'ghost town', there are still lots of agencies that find national work for their talent!.
Best advice: Wait til you go to the festival and talk to the people there!. Ask around and find out who these other people's agents are!. Then get their email addresses and send in a headshot and resume!.
Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
honestly!. you never really know if a talent agency is good until you have tried them out!. people may tell you that a certain agency is good blah blah blah!.!.!.it has happened to me and it ended up being an awful experience!. just go on an acting union website like ACTRA and make a list of all the principal talent agencies that appeal to you!. just give all of them a call or e-mail them with a headshot and resume, it worked for me and i got lucky!. i am going to 2-3 auditions every week, depending on the season!. also, i am not assuming but you also can't rely on your parents to do all the work as well!. yes, you need a guardian until 18 but you can look for agencies and so on by yourself!.!.!.its good experience!. also, some acting classes are scams too!. dont get too caught up in them!.!.!.that is what i have learnt but everyone has their own style!. you mentioned that you "want to act"!.!.!.have you ever done any work before!?!?!? if not, it will be hard to get a good agent off the bat!. try mandy!.com if you dont already use it, it is a great casting website that is easy to use and doesnt cost a cent!. also, take any oppourtunities you can get!.!.!.experience is key!. i have worked with actors that have all had the same issues, so dont get discouraged!.!.!.thats the buisness! Ayway, good luck and break a leg!Www@QuestionHome@Com
