Make sure you're trying to get in all the plays at your school, and look for local theaters that would be having shows you could be in. You want to be in as many plays as possible to give you a lot of acting background, it looks great on resumes. Find a place where you can get an acting comp card done. It's similar to a modeling comp card, but it has your head shot and information about yourself that agencies would like to know. You can show this to anyone you are trying to get to hire you, and it is a must to look as professional as possible. Look up acting agencies in your area and try to get appointments to talk to people, and attend as many auditions as possible. I hope that's enough to get you started.

Get an agent. Most film/stage auditions won't accept solo auditioneers. Stagecoach (mentioned above) acts as an agent.
Start small. I started small, a little Extra in Hider-In-the-House, teaching <<Stagecoach Principle's Husband>> how to skateboard. Now i'm doing a documentary on BBC4 about teenagers. Don't expect a jump start straight into the big screen.
Be prepared to take rejection. Millions of people out there want to be famous and be on any screen, but most of the time only 1 out of a 1000 people get famous. Try again and again until you reach your dream.
