Answer 1

Sorry but the closest I know of would be in MN or Chicago. There's not a lot in WI, but that doesn't mean there's nothing you can do. Try looking up websites for your states film alliances / commissions / societies / etc. Evedry state these days is trying to lure filmmakers so there will be websites with info and some may have casting info as well. Search Wisconsin Film first and see what you get. Explore those sights and take notes and if it's not much try adding one of those key words like alliance or society, etc. You're bound to find something!

Maybe you can try to go to college in SoCal :-)

good luck!

Sorry you got taken by Barbizon, but maybe you got something out of it. Anyway. There are tons of agents in Wisconsin. Just web search for "Talent Agents in Wisconsin"
Pick only those who are SAG franchised or signatories. Call them ask what you should do to be represented by them. Do that. In the meanwhile, if you have any questions about acting or acting as a career, I advise young actors for free. Contact me at [e-mail] and ask me anything about acting.

Go to this site, it is the Screen Actors Guild website, and anyone can access the National Agent Database:
