How do you start to become an actress what do you have to do and how much does it cost?

Answer 1

Step one: Go to acting school. Acting is a job so therefore you have to have an education. And it is a job that you have to have the experience for.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you think you have the experience and education for this, go ahead and skip that part.

Step two: Get with an agency. You can't work alone, you have to get with an agency. Any agency will do and they will get you an agent. Your agent is like your personal manager. They book jobs for you. They shouldn't want to be payed until after you start working. Once you get payed they will want 15% of the money that you have earned.

Step three: Get an audition. Your agent will book you for an audition to get a role in an act. Hopefully you will make it!

Now this is what you have to do when you become an actress. When it comes to being an actor, comes responsibility. Just because your an actress and your famous now doesn't mean that you can just leave without cleaning up or come unprepared thinking that they will do everything for you. Trust me. You could also go to this website (v) that will help you to find out what are the things you MUST do.

When yo have gotten to that website, click on the "International Modeling Guide" (Intl. N G) It will answer any questions you have about modeling, but can work for acting to. Now all of them are not true about acting. Like what size, type or figure you have to be. Or dying or cuting your hair for a photoshoot (which is only for a porfolio for modeling) But the titles or subjects that have the word "modeling" in it are not about acting.

How much does it cost. Like i said you only pay your agent and possibly the acting school. I can't tell you either of the cost. For the school, it depends on where you go and how often will you be going. You could sign up to go for 6 weeks $200-$400 or for 2h $25 per h. For the agent like I said ~15% but I don't know how much exactly you will pay your agent because first it all depends on how much you make. How much you make is depending on your work, talent, the show and a lot more. When you start I have a way you can figure out how much you will pay your agent after YOU get paid first. (v)

Step one: $you make x 15% = $your agent will get

example: $1000 x 15% = $150

This is to find out how much you will really make after paying your agent.

$you make - $your agent will get = $you'll have leftover

example: $1000 - $150 = $850

That is my answer to all three questions in "How do you start to become an actress what do you have to do and how much does it cost?"

I also answered the question "How do you become a model?"

Good luck to ALL of us out there who wants to do this! :-)
