I am sure that you have a film office there.  Check on their web site and it should show links to reputable agencies.  Here in the USA I belong to a organization that promotes film in our state and we have members that are in casting and are talent agents.  Extras are usually hired when a film is coming to an area and a "cattle call" is issued.  That means the newspapers and television stations will let people know where to go to sign up.  I helped with some extra casting for several movies including the film "Radio".  I hope this is what your son wants because you must have alot of patience.  It's always alot of "hurry up and wait".  Good luck.  To find your film office I can only link you through a US site.  Go to www.carolinafilm.com.  Scroll down and on the left hand side you will see links.  Click on that. Go to AFCI (International Film Offices).  Then take it from there to find the correct one for you.  Sorry I didn't think about that earlier.

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.

I don't have a professional background in film, but I have read up on it. Botttom line: get first hand experiance. If you want to an actor the hards are pretty hard against you (read: slim to none). But if you want to be involved in the production, you have some options. You can try the Second Assistant Directors Training Program, which is extremely competitive but a great opportunity if you get in. Visit dgptp.org/jobdues.html\nYou can also try getting in as a temp, in which you get a small job like answering phones but get to meet people who could possibly set you up. For that, you can call:\n\nThe Freidman Agency (310) 850-1002\nBlaine and Associates (310) 785-0560\nThe Job Factory (310) 475-9521\n\nThere are also film schools, most notably the New York Film Academy ( nyfa.com) and Los Angeles City College (lacc.cc.ca.us)

A better question might be:  Where can I get a second job?

You need to get yourself an agent. I don't know where you are located, but you can find one in the phone book or do an online search. Start there because companies casting for commercials and movies use agents to find the right people for a part.

unfortunately such a website does not exist as of now. mainly because if it existed, then the moviemakers would not have a 'source of income'\nI wud luv to know of such a website myself.

I am going to assume you live in LA and that you have been active in school theater or even community theater.  If you haven't done these things, do them as soon as possible.  Once you have done some things to put on your resume (theater work) then you should get some headshots done.  The next step is to register yourself with Central Extras casting and go to work on movie sets as an extra.  The pay sucks but you get a lot of on-set experience, especially if you pay attention to what's going on.\n\nthen comes the BIG step.  Post your headshot/resume on either Now Casting, LA casting or Actors Access (or all three if you can afford it).  Every day new casting calls are listed.  Submit yourself for parts you feel you would be strong at (don't submit for just anything, casting agents do have a memory and if they see you submitting for everything they will not look at you twice).  Go out on auditions.  These films will be for no pay but the experience is what you are after.  Get 4-5 films under your belt, get copies of the stuff you do, then hire an editor to put together a demo reel that is burned to VHS or DVD.\n\nThen and ONLY after you have done ALL of the above should you start pursuing an agent.  Mail a letter of introduction and your headshot ASKING them if they would like to meet you and see your demo.  Then wait.\n\nSorry if this sounds discouraging, but that's the business.  You have to eb able to face rejection every day.  Remember there are thousands of actors in Los Angeles all vying for the same thing you want.  You just have to be able to play the game better than anyone else.\n\nPS - If you don't live in LA, get involved with as much theater work as possible and seek out your local independent filmmakers.  Get cast in their films and use that for your demo...then move to LA.
