Question
Hey my name is Taylor and i was wondering about how much agents cost. But i live in a small town in texas. I love acting but i need help with an agent.

Answer
An agent that charges you ANYTHING you should report them.
Agents are ONLY allowed to get money from jobs that you get and in return they receive a commission of a maximum of 20%.
Contact the local SAG office in your area to find out who is franchised and who isn't to make sure they are legitimate BEFORE signing with them.
NEVER PAY ANYONE ANYTHING UPFRONT..... PERIOD.
Look them up (agents/coaches/producers/directors/casting agents/managers....)on google.com or imdb.com
They can say they are (or have done anything) on thier own personal websites and you might believe it.
BE CAREFUL.
