Modeling/Acting Agencies?

Question

I am 14, and I want to 'try out' to be an actress or model. I think I have a better chance as an actress, but either way I just want to try. Does anyone know of any modeling or acting scouts or agencies that will be in Southwestern Pennsylvania in the future? If you do, please give me as much info as possible. When there will be interviews, who will be interviewing, where the agency/scouts will be at, anything you know about it. Thanks so so much!

Answer 1

I live in California so i have no idea about Pennsylvania, but youll want to have some headshots(or just photos of yourself), as well as a brief resume(since your just starting list your skills/interests or past school productions). Then start sending your photos and a resume to local talent agencies. You may want to try to biggest cities in Pennsylvania like Pittsburg or Philadelphia. Getting an agent isnt easy unless they just love your look right off the bat and want to sign you. If they do respond to your submission they will probably ask for an interview, where you will have to meet with the interested agents and probably do a cold read or they may send you something to memorize and have prepared. If you dont get an agent you can always look on craigslist.com for auditions.. The acting business is very complex,competitive, and political so good luck.
