I want to become an actor how can I do this?

Question

I get told everyday that I could be an actor or modle but I don't know how to break in to this area. Can someone please help me.

Answer 1

If you are still in high school, then get heavily involved in any performing arts program they have (theatre productions, thespians society, show choir, etc.)

I would definatly go to college as well. While in college, get involved in the college performing arts program and do some community theatre stuff.

Basically just build a resume and work from there.

Answer 2

get an agent

Answer 3

Stay in school first of all.

Get involved in your local drama program and get enough experience to create a resume.

Eventually you'll start landing bigger auditions and you'll need that resume and any training you can get to help you out.

Good luck!

Answer 4

Get some experience and find an agent, stay away from the scams out there (people claiming to get you work if you pay them $) - there are A LOT of these types of businesses out there.  If you live near a major city (NYC, for example), look in the local phone books to find reputable agencies to meet with.    

In the meantime, build a resume by getting involved with local theaters, take some acting classes, get some professional photos done and continue to find ways to self-promote yourself.

Best of luck!
