It depends on where you live, but most newspapers and phone directories would have "Agencies" listed, you look for the acting/modeling section and ring the agencies from there. If your in Australia the newspapers have agencies listed in the casual section of the job search...don't know about over seas.\n\nHope this helps

Hmmm...Oklahoma? I think if your really serious about entering that line of work, you should go where the majority of work is...Los Angeles. I'm not implying you want to be an adult actress, for all I know you want to be a camerman, but that would be the best place to start.

Go to auditions, and it's always helpful to have an agent find auditions that best fit you.

Same way you become an actor anywhere else --- you audition.  Are you in a geographic area that would lend itself to being involved in film and television? LA?  Vancouver?\n\nWatch the shows, find out who the casting directors are, and have your agency send them a headshot.  From there on out, it's all fate.\n\nGood luck.

Local theater.  It is the best place to start.  You can also look around for small studios and drop off head shots.  It sometimes works.  Shoe to a casting call for extras if a movie is being made if your area.  This one is a little tougher. But they are the step ladder to help you out.

You need to get as much experience as you can, so keep auditioning and doing local plays.  However, if you want to "hit it big" you're going to eventually have to take a chance and move to New York, Los Angeles, or some other large city with a vibrant entertainment scene.  Why should the industry folks come find you when there are thousands of actors and actresses who've made the commitment to come to THEM?

I wish i new what state your in. I could get a good agent for you. Check your local paper for ads looking for extra's. But beware of some agents. A good agent will except pictures from a reg camera taken by a friend. If they want you to pay for 8x10's? Be careful. You want to make money. Not put it out. So start as an extra. You have to be willing to work long hours though. Hard work pays off. The more exposure you get in front of a directors camera the better.  Three important things to remember though when starting out. 1. Can't be shy. 2. Never be late. 3. Have to be able to take direction. As you go along you will expererience bad days and good days. But you have to be willing to want it bad enough. And as an extra your agent will send you out on go see's and auditions. Some start out and find that acting is not for them. I had acting in me since i was young and worked my way up the ladder. It payed off for me. Good luck to you.\nSigned: Part-time actress.

Take lots and lots of acting classes.  Get yourself out to California or New York and try out for some Agents.  The key is to get an agent.  It is VERY hard to become a viable actress/actor without an agent.  Once you have an agent your in.  They'll get you auditions and everything else.  At that point it's up to you to sell yourself.

You don't say what part of the country you are from but there are small film makers and film associations all over. Try looking them up on the net and finding out about auditioning through them.  I've been in a couple local shorts that have gone to international festivals. it's a good way to get your foot in the door.\n\nLocal commercials can be a good jumping off point.  Call local add agencies and see what they say.\n\n Then you'll want to see about an agent and you need to set up a web sight.
