You can't just rush off to hollywood and wish you were an actress or actor..you have to work hard and believe in yourself(if you don't have self-confidence)then you would keep pushing yourself down..so take acting classes and get a little more experienced than you already are..I live in south africa(used to live)and today I'm sitting in new york because I stayed positive the whole time..if I can do it so can you..and I'm only 17..

First of all, you have to be in Hollywood, or you have to audition for any U.S. Production that might be filming in your general area.  Starting as an extra is usually the way to go, but if you have extensive theater/radio/TV experience that might help you land something better sooner...but not necessarily.  They key is to get in touch with agencies to get them your head shots (professionally done, otherwise don't bother!) and build up your resume while you do so with extra work, commercial work, and (maybe) modeling work.  Model Mayhem is a great site, and Craigslist often has extra work or indy movie roles, because companies don't like to waste money on casting if they don't have to.  But with all things -- especially Model Mayhem and Craigslist -- always be careful who you meet with and what you take.  You can get exploited easily, but any professional photographer and/or casting person will give you full contact info up front, and will allow you to bring someone along for safety.I'm slowly building up my career -- I've already done commercials, some minor roles, extra work -- and you can follow how I'm networking and building up relationships within the Hollywood community on my Blog at www.laurie-landry.com.

If you want to become an actress you have to work really hard. If you're planning on going to hollywood you'll have to find something that will make movie casters notice you. You must make a good impression.
  You can do that in many different ways.of course you have to be a good actress because there are a lot of talented people out there. But most importantly you have to stand out from the crowd. And if you don't get the part you wanted you can't give up! Those who make it big are either very very lucky or those who fight the hardest. Acting is just like any other job, you have to work hard to get to the top. And never let anyone tell you your not good enough!

If one does want to become an actress in Hollywood make sure that you have prior acting experience be it plays or theatre or Broadway, in a television soap opera or even at a local club. There is no one procedure to become an actress. Most of the Hollywood stars of today were either accidentally spotted or landed their first tiny role in a not-so-good movie and were then noticed.

Of course, it always helps if you know someone in Hollywood that can show you around and maybe introduce you to some directors or producers but even then, some acting experience is always required. Most first timers generally have to carry a resume along with a photograph, their acting experience and skill sets that they have. Therefore, make sure that you've done well enough before you approach a casting director.

I have also wanted to become an actress for awhile. Especially in Hollywood. But I am 25, almost 26 in a few months and I'm afraid I've waited to long to start acheiving my dream. A friend and I have plans to move to California in about 4 months. How do I go about acheiving my dreams at my age? I haven't went to school for acting, but I know I can act.
