I think it depends on where you are!. If you're in a smaller area, you don't really have many options!. All experience can definitely be useful!. Just because it's a small production doesn't mean you don't have to act, memorize lines, rehearse, and go through many of the same motions as on a large production!. Plus, for getting an agent, they like to see experience, even small-scale experience!. Obviously, getting bigger projects looks better, but you never know who you could meet through every acting opportunity! I would definitely say keep with it!. Try for any big production you get the opportunity for, but don't shun the small-scale productions either!. Hopefully this helps some!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Every chance you get is good!. If you're able, audition!. Plus you never know if that student film will be the next Napoleon Dynamite!.!.!. =)Www@QuestionHome@Com
