If you want to get into acting, go to your bookstore and start reading in the acting section! Also in the magazine section you will most likly find a magazine called ‘Ross Reports’. Its full of addresses to agencies, casting directors, and films in production in the Los Angeles and New York area.

You can go to a photoagopher and get your picture taken for headshots. But they can be very expensive.. A trick i’ve got under my sleeve to make the price go down is; Go to a Motophoto or somewhere where they put the photos on a CD for you after they take your picture, then you can go to a copier store such as Kinkos that can print them on nice paper. Or if you have a good printer and paper at home you can do it yourself.

Then follow the instructions in the agency section of your Ross Reports magazine. Which are pretty much something as follows.

Send headshot and resume, do not phone, do not visit, no drop offs, if interested we will phone for an appointment.

Not the most polite descriptions but hey these are the people who will help you get work!!!

No agent will ever contact you.

And if they did it wouldnt be a form letter.
