I think it depends what country you're in. If your in the UK then you're probably best getting Equity (theatre union) membership and then asking a representative from them. They'll help you a lot.

You do not need to pay for the information. If you want to find a legitimate agent to represent you for commercials, TV & film go to Sag.org. Use the dropdown menu on the right labeled 'resources' and choose 'agent information'. On the next screen, on the left choose 'Find a SAG franchised agent' and follow the directions. You can look up agents all over the US, but there are higher concentrations where the work is (Los Angeles, NY, IL, FL, GA etc.)

Then you can send them your headshot, resume, and a cover letter stating that you are seeking representation and wait to see if they call you in for an interview.

And please remember that reputable agents will not refer you to a specific photographer nor take any money from you up front. They do not get paid until you do.

Good luck!

All agents need to have a license. Visit this link for a list of agents. http://www.agentassociation.com/

The best agents are located in New York or Los Angeles.

Good Luck

Get a copy of the Ross Reports. It contains a lot of reputable agencies. It's like $10 in a Drama Book store in NYC. That's the only place I know.

Check the referance section of your local bookseller. Artists have an annual referance book that runs about 25.00 and is excellent-I'm sure they have similar for musicians and actors etc. The art one shows companies,agents,etc. What they run, charge, do,addresses,phones, submission info etc.

I think the term "reputable agent" is an oxymoron, especially in acting...good luck!
