Question: Acting agent vs!. acting agency!?
ok so i know that to get into an acting agency you send them a submission with a cover letter, resume, and pictures and that there are a bunch of other ppl in the agency so you might not get picked

but what is the difference between all that with an agency and an agent!? like an individual person, i know theyre out there, just dont know where to lookWww@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Pick up a copy of The Ross Reports which will list all agents, agencies, casting directors and even managers!. You may find a few agents who head up their own agencies but you'll be hard pressed to find any who are just out there by themselves!. Precious few individual actors work enough to support any one agent!. For this reason some agents become managers instead!. The actors you see in the major roles of tv and film are by and large represented by the powerhouse agencies like CAA, ICM, Endeavor, William Morris!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
