Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
you totally can get a chance!. i got into acting and got into stuff while i was 15, and i lived in austin! [austin then again is big film society] but still you just need to know who to talk to and where to look!. you can actually go to craigslist and look at their postings in need of actors and actress and etc!. its usually not too big of people trying to get someone to be in a short film or commerical or something!. never expect to start off big!. if you can get a job, even if its non-paying, take it! once you build up some expirience and do some work you can make a resume and start looking online for agents and local auditons!. each time you do go to a shooting or audition of some kind you get exposure and you can get hook ups!. slowly by slowly if you are lucky, you just might get bug ;]Www@QuestionHome@Com
