How do i get into acting? Do i just ring up an agency and ask if they want to represent me?

Answer 1

If it was that easy, every Tom Cruise wanna-be in the world - roughly half the males in the US, Canada, UK and Australia between the ages of 16 and 40 - would do so.

Read a couple of biographies of actors you like. See how they broke in. I think talent, looks and experience have something to do with it. Not always; look at Paris Hilton.

If you are 18, blonde, skinny and a billionare heiress, I'd be willing to leak a sex tape to the Internet for you. You'd have to get your own stud; I'm married. Based on her example, job offers would pour in.

Answer 2

Well, I don't know if you have that much experience yet. If you do, make a resume listing all of your experience. If not, get involved with a local theatre and take acting classes. Also try to find soem local commercial or student/low budget film auditions. Once you have a lot of experience and feel you are ready to kick it up a knotch, you can schedule an audition with a agency. At least, I think. First though, I think you have to send in your resume and headshot and then they will reply and THEN you can schedule an audition or meeting thingy.
Sorry, I'm not very helpful. I only do local theatre.
