How do I become a professional actor?

How do I become a professional actor?

  • I'm 17 live in the west-midlands, am moving to a city. Wish to become a film-star, any help with how I could achieve this I would preferably wish to be in films by 20.

  • Answer:

    Well, ask yourself a few questions. The most important question is "Am I in it for the money and fame, or am I in it because I love the art?" If you answered "I'm in it for the money and fame." You might as well turn away, because you'll never make it. You have to be dedicated and in love with it to succeed. Pick up the book "ACTING A TO Z" by Katherine Mayfield, and it will tell you everything that you need to know.

I think your biggest mistake is trying to achieve something before a certain age. You'll become resentful if you don't make it by age 20. Focus on being good at acting. You'll have more success.

Hi, I use to wonder the same thing, then I got hooked up with an acting agent who finds me auditions to go to. Recently I got an audition request for a lead role on days of our lives. All you'll need is some good headshots of yourself and then google some acting agencies in your area and see if you can get an interview with one of them. Hope this helps
