I'm 17 and live near Detroit Michigan, and there is one called OneSource!.com or net, but they also have actual offices!.!.!.!.feel free to check it out if ya want!.!.i know they have other locations!.!.one might be near you!. but here's the thing!.!.!. sorry but its not gonna be a walk in the park!.!.!.!. 1) any previous acting experience onstage!? 2) taken any acting classes!? 3) live nearby an agency!. you can look up talent agencies online and in the yellow pages 4) they look for professional recent headshots!. Photographer quality!. this can be pricey!. 5) Have good audition experience!. Most agencies look for this because they want to know what they're going to be representing before hand!. And they want to see if you have the talent!. The best way to be prepared for this is to have all the audition experience you can get, whether its just audtitioning for local community theatre or what!. 6) don't get ripped off!. Some agencies are nothing but a scam!. As a starting career, don't look to shed out big bucks to these people unless they are ligit and can promise you a blossoming career!. If they demand a high amount of money, they're not worth it!. That is until, your making more money off of gigs they got you!. its not easy and i'm not sayng it can't be done, but there are so many things they look for, its nearly impossible!. You literally have to be one in a million these days!. So confide in close friends and family members!.!.!.let them know this is what you want cause your gonna need all the support you can get!. Most importantly!.!.!.be yourself!. don't change for anybody or because you think they'll like it better if you act a certain way!. be original!. thats what stands out!. Www@QuestionHome@Com do more community theatre or some more actual acting because they will only want to lok at people with a full resume make a resume and text CHACHA(242-242)(standard text rates only) asking them for the addresses of agencies they will give you a huge list and get head shots and start sending your shots and resume out ther good luck! trust me it works i did just that and well lets just say it worked! :)Www@QuestionHome@Com Don't use online agents, they won't do anything for you!. Look on the SAG and AFTRA websites for their franchised, licensed agents!. Www@QuestionHome@Com i wouldn't look on-line, if your looking for somebody local, look in the phone book or newspaper, it's an old school method, but sometimes it's very effectiveWww@QuestionHome@Com |
