They have a lot of activities they say look good on resumes!. I've done one play each year from K-5 & in 7th grade I was in drama in school!. I'm in 8th btw!. After camp i'm planning to send my headshots and resume out to agents but I don't have film experience!. I've never been an extra or been in a commercial!. Nothing!. ZIPPO!. :\ What else can I do!? I'm also taking acting & singing lessons!. Thanks![: Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: All you can really do is make sure what you do have om your resume is presented in a straight-forward and professional manner!. Every actor has to start out somewhere, and every agent and casting director knows that!. Just understand that you likely won't be considered a viable candidate for any sort of high-profile jobs until you've logged some time at some small-scale jobs!. You'll have an easier time getting those smaller jobs if you behave like a professional despite your lack of experience!. I'm sure you'll learn all about this at your camp, though, provided they spend any time teaching about the business end of things!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Go through your phonebook and look for a local talent agency & give them a ring!. Set up an interview and get yourself an agent!. They will get you rolls in commercials and if you're lucky, a tv show or movie!.Www@QuestionHome@Com perform before live audiences in school or community for possible reviews of playsWww@QuestionHome@Com |
