QUESTION: Hi, my name is german im 15 years old and have always had a thing with modeling and acting. I have no idea where to start off or how to even get a job. what should I do to get started in the acting and modeling world?

ANSWER: Hi German,  It is a long hard road from where you are to acting and modeling.  You get started by doing all the plays in school, by talking to local tv stations about appearing in their local ads, snd by taking professional acting classes.  As you progress from amateur to professional acting you will have to get an agent.  Agents will find you work in both acting and modeling.  For more information, contact me at kencosp@aol.com  Doc

QUESTION: Is there any places i CAN CALL TO GET STARTED.

Answer
Yes, German, you get started in your high school.  You get active in all the theatre and drama activities.  You look in the phone book for acting schools, and if you find one, you call and ask about their beginning class, when it meets and how much it costs.  As you gain experience in school plays and from acting school classes, you can try to move on.  But this is it, how you get started., Best Wishes, Doc
