Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Start by taking some acting classes!. This will get you even more comfortable with acting!. Since you live in Singapore, these classes will help you garentee that you love acting, before you make a trip all the way to LA!.

To start getting auditions you usually need an agent!. Agents represent you and negotiate prices!. To get an agent you can send in headshots with a resume attached to the back to the agents you would like to be represented by!. Usually after a certain amount of classes the acting school offers a "showcase"!. This is where invited agents come and you audition for them!. If they like you then you can meet with them and wa la! Haha!. It is important to know that agents do not cost any money and if they do it is a scam!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Do you have any previous acting experience at all!? Even very small roles!? There are TONS of young aspiring actresses like you migrating to LA and trying out their luck, so experience is definitely a plus!.!.!. You can try, but you have to have really strong star qualities to stand out from the rest of the crowd!. It's a possibility you could get work, but they usually look for some prior experience!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
