I did that!.!. 30 weeks!.!. it was fun!.!.

anyways JRP is a talent agency also!.!.
When I went there!.!. I wore a longsleeve polo, with khakis!.!.
And Nice formal shoes!.!. They asked me and my family into the room asked me questions: What are your talents, Do You want to become and actor, and such!.!. Then he gave me a commercial to read infront of a camera!.!. Then they decided which kids**((there was prolly 500 but picked liked 100))** they were going to pick!.!. I was one of them!.!. You have to callback the next day to see how youve done!.!.!. Then, you go back, they make you memorize the commercial and act it out infront of Whoever is interviewing you!.!. Then they will decide if your good enough!.!. Then you go for certain weeks like 20,30 or maybe a year or two of acting,singing,dancing, etc (whatever your talent is) classes!.!. Then every saturday there is a REAL agent, or casting manager/director and you audition what ever you want!.!. Then if your one of the couple who get chosen each week then i guess thats the start of your acting career!.!. BUT ITS VERY HARD TO GET CHOSEN!.!. I never got chosen and I was one the best actors in my age group!.!.
