Not bad answers!. you will need professional head shots after you have an agent but not before!. Experience is more important that training!. You need to do a lot of acting more thatn you need to take a class!. your home made head shot should still be a good headshot with plain white or dark background, head and shoulders, looking at the camera, showing your sparkle!. Talent agents do not make you a star!. you make you a star via your talent and know how!. legit talent agents are SAG franchised!. They want you to be someone they can make money off of!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes you will need professional head shots!. In order to book jobs as a professional actor you will also need to be in the unions!. Joining them is not easy as you must earn your way in!.

Don't worry about a talent agency just yet!. A talent agent is the least of your concerns right now!. Agents are in the business of representing actors whom they can earn money from!. You aren't in that position just yet!.

Lastly, there's no such thing as a best acting school but there is such a thing as the best acting school that works for YOU!. To that end you will need to audit (sit in) on more than one class or coach and see which technique or style works best for you!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

First off, you absolutely do need professional quality headshots to realistically book jobs!. Using anything else will look like straight-up amateur hour, no matter how great you look in the picture!.

Second, there are plenty of respectable talent agents in Florida!. I suggest you take a look at this page on SAG's official site (it has a nifty search engine to find SAG-affiliated agencies!) : http://www!.sag!.org/content/find-agent

Third, what sort of school are you looking for!? A high school!? College!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Best Acting school in South Florida- John Robert Powers West Palm Beach!. They will also set you up with Image Photography if you ask them to, so you can get professional headshots!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
