How hard would it be for a high school drop out to get into hollywood?

Question

acting or anything, how can you get recognized for a special skill?

Answer 1

It's hard to make it in Hollywood, even for people with schooling.  If you have a special talent you need to go on auditions and compete for spots just like everyone else.  I think you should go back and finish school, then look into getting some college courses on whatever your talent is.  Talent is one thing, but you need to learn to polish it and you need to learn to make the most of it.  School offers you that plus it allows you to enter an already existing network of artists like yourself.  

Good luck to you

Answer 2

Probably even harder then a person with schooling. You should have stood in school. But anyways no matter what it's hard to get in to Hollywood.

Answer 3

Hi :)

That's very hard to do,usually celebrities have a high school education,most likely you would have to go a casting call and stuff.

To be discovered like certain stars are very rare,because they usually do school plays or people chase them down to get them into the industry.

You have to have the looks,because talents aren't everything. You can have amazing talent but not look good,and you won't get casted. Also their looking for younger people to market,or as they like to say 'Make their dreams come true'.

Answer 4

Considering that there are hundreds of talented actors who studied acting at very prestigious schools and still can't get a decent gig, you'd have to be lucky and be in the right place at the right time. Knowing someone in the business is a big help too. It can happen but your best bet is to finish school just in case you end up a struggling actor.
