I need help finding an agent!
Sat, 13 Sept 2008, 07:08 pmHi there.
As you probably guessed it, yes, I am a teenager.
However, I'm no "I wanna get rich and famous and be on telly!" kinda girls though.
I am deeply interested in acting professionally, and I would like to take another step towards that career, by getting an agent.
I know that there are alot of these sorts of threads, so sorry in advance.
But I'm having a little difficulty knowing some good agencies and so on.
I'm mostly interested in theatre work, specifically musicals, however, anything would float my boat.
So anyone have any advice of which agencies I should send my resume into?
I live in Melbourne, I'm fifteen, and I currently only have community and school theatre to my name.
I would appreciate any help.
Cheerio :)
How do you know the
Mon, 22 Sept 2008, 11:34 amHow do you know the difference between an actors agency and an actors/modelling agency? They have models on their books and regularly work with companies that need models (ie. advertisers, fashion, etc.). However this doesn't mean much since many actors are models and vice versa; so you may find models on the books of actors agencies.
Do your research on any agency before you sign up, and worry more about their reputation than who they actually represent. Let's face it, doesn't matter if they don't work with models or not, if they have a bad reputation, or you don't feel comfortable working with them, then you shouldn't sign with them.
I highly recommend you getting your parents involved with any decisions, to ensure you and them understand your commitments, responsibilities, contracts and the agency's responsibilities.
