I love acting and would love to pursue a career in acting plz help?

Question

i have been chosen for many leading roles in in and out of school performances and my school drama teacher says i have great potential !! what do i do? (from her best mate!:) Xx

Answer 1

Go to drama school

Answer 2

Get involved in a local community Theatre and eventually go to college for theatre

Answer 3

Move to New York or L.A.

Grow a thick skin.

Get an agent.

Be willing to s***w or s***w over anyone you meet.

That should do it.

Answer 4

1)Act in local theaters untill you have directors calling and emailing you to come to their auditions.

2)Try acting seminars and classes. Those will help.

3)Audition for local competitions for talent agents, etc. If you audition for a talent agent, they will have a competition and the judges will be other agents, casting directors, record companys, and actors themselves to give you more info on the industry.

4)If you get one of the top 10 you might get a agent and sign with someone.

5)One casting director told me that to really get famous, you have to live near the main places that have alot of the buisness (ex: In the U.S. it would be LA and NY)

Hope this helped!

Answer 5

First off, congratulations!

Next, make sure to take acting classes at a school or in your community.

Hope to see your name up in lights.

Answer 7

Im in the industry already and I must don't go to NYC for it.  It is the hardest place to make it.  I don't know anybody that has yet except for Kristen Hansen.  First, get an agent.  Go out there.  Find out if anyone wants to hire you and give them your agency number.  They will contact the agency an the agency will contact you.  Wait for a few minor roles.  DONT expect anything big yet.  You WILL hear 100 no's before you get a single yes.  So, like some said.  Get a thick skin.  Don't let it bother you when they tell you, you are "too" something.  And simply, don't get too close or attached to any one person.  THis is a dog eat dogt industry and you have to be able to hold your own.  Feel free to e-mail me if you want to know anything else about the industry!
