Becoming an Actor/Actress
Find every opportunity in your traveling distance that does Plays or Musicals!. Check the schools and community groups as well as professional!. Contact them and ask to be notified of any auditions!.
If you do not get a part, offer to help in any way (paint scenery, usher etc!.) Just being around the production you will learn a lot!.
Study Dance, Music and Acting!. You must be able to do at least one great and the others well enough to let the others work around you!. Find classes or instructors that have produced talent!.
Work on your image!. You have to be a go getter, with lots of confidence and at the same time come across as humble!.
Develop work ethics!. Never be late!. Never be absent!. Always be attentive!. Always show respect for others, even when you do not think they deserve it!.
If and when approached by a talent agent or agency!. Check them out carefully!. If you are too young to sign a contract, remember your parents will need to be very involved!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
the chances of u getting famous is any chance someone else has right now!. usually when your in the mall or something, they come to you!.like one time when i was at the mall, this women came up to my mom, talked, gave my mom an adress to the place where she should go!. when i get there, there is a huuuge line full of people!.practicing lines!. i didnt get in:/Www@QuestionHome@Com
it doesn't matter beacuse fame is a perk in the acting world!. The chances of being in a feature film is slim to none!. U have no experience and people don't come up to you unless they aren't a big agency or are trying to scam u!. U won't make it farWww@QuestionHome@Com
nope you just need a good agentWww@QuestionHome@Com
you don't have to find an agent right away and STAY AWAY FROM SCHOOL PLAYS!!! try to find a more proffessional theatre, even if it doesnt pay!.!.!.instead of staying in school play go out and find community theatre groups!.!.!.later when you go to the mall, after you get some experience, subscribe into one of those talent searches!.!.!.but do NOT pay anything until you get to the audition place!. Most of those talent searches ask for a $1000 to $3000 fee!. They will get you inside a convention full of casting directors and stuff!. there you audition for them and hope to get a roleWww@QuestionHome@Com
