This is my question: Do you need an agent to find out about movie/ commercial auditions? Because I really want to auditions for some, but I have very little acting experience. I have been in two plays. I think i'd be way better at like reality acting then like, theater acting? Is there even a difference? But I feel kind of dumb just saying "Oh I want to be in a movie." I don't understand why it's so hard to get in a movie. All you do is act the part. Say i'm nervous about talking to a boy. Anyone can act that out. So why do I need loads of experience for people to even consider me being in something? I haven't auditioned for any big commercials or movies, just little school plays. So can you get my info straight on what I just said, and also my original question: Do you need an agent to find out about auditions?
it all depends on your age. Lets say your 13-17, and you have an agent etc they will pull you out of school just so you can audition for a tiny part in a movie, and theres hundreds of thousands of other kids auditioning for your part too. In Theatre you have to commit and really exagerate the part your playing. While working on set for a movie directors will perform fifteen takes until you act the part right. It has a lot to do with detail, commitment, and emotion. An agent would possibly be the best way to go. People will go up to me and give me forms to audition on this set and they "claim" its free but its really scams and they mention all these movies they worked on but you have to pay so much money and their just trying to get your money.

They cost money though and they arnt cheap. You need acting expirence because your more likely to get the part if you can act well. some people dont need classes because it comes naturally. Skills you need are improv which is thinking on your toes basically and to cry on cue. Which is if someone says cry right now, you need tears in secconds. hope i helped good luck with your carreer! xoxo [ Bellaitaliana311's advice column | Ask Bellaitaliana311 A Question ]
