Hi everyone my name is Jorge I am a Actor/Model from the east coast. I am 15 years old and finding it very hard to get any breaks is there anything I should be doing or places I should know about? Alot of places seem to want money up front it just dont sound right. Any suggestions?
First things first, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER give anyone money up front. Those are scams. They take the money and run. Usually saying its $400 - $500 for headshots and packaging, and that is just not right. Agents get paid when you get paid. Your best bet is to look up every talent agency in your area, and call every single one of them. Get you a good photographer, and get a handful of headshots, get them blown up to 8x10, and talk about your ambition. If they ask for money, they aren't worth your time. A true agent will ask what classes/workshops you've done, what education, and will guide you in the right direction.
Thank you Robert you don't know how much this means to me I do have head shots. and am currently looking in to a few extra agencies just to start off.
