How much does it cost to hire an agent for acting and for acting classes?

Agents
They are in business. They are trying to make money. They should not however insist that you take their classes or use their photographer. They do not look at your picture and resume and go out and try to find you a job.
You should give them enough information about your skills and decent photos of you.
Almost all agents know where to find out about casting for theater and movies.
When these castings are announced they look through their files to see who might have a chance. If you appear to have a chance they will notify you.
Until you have found work several times they are not going to go out and try to sell you to a producer.
Read these web sites and all their links.

How you do you become FBI agent?

How does someone get a job at the FBI?
What’s required: you need to be age 23-37, have a bachelor’s degree, maybe a post-grad degree; you need to have had some kind of career and excelled at it. You need 2 or 3 years of full-time employment, life experience. You must be extremely responsible; we are incredibly autonomous. Management skills: if you can supervise a bunch of other people you can certainly run yourself. Also language skills are useful: I speak Spanish fluently. We hire only a tiny percentage of applicants. The year I started, they hired 400 out of 58,000 applicants.

Know that you're ONLY going to see at most 30% of the work out there. ONLY agents have access to the serious jobs or the other 70%.

To get an agent, you need to get GREAT headshots, a good resume, and training from the best. These are enough to get you a commercial agent at least. Getting a GOOD theatrical agent (Film/tv) takes longer. Most good theatrical agents won't see you unless you're SAG, have a polished resume, and a demo reel. Commercial agents are more lenient about that. What the best Commercial agents want to see on your resume are good commercial classes, improv, and cold reading.

You can get an agent multiple ways. Here are a few common ways:
-Mail in an unsealed manilla envelope with a CONCISE coverletter and headshot with the resume stapled on the back. If you have a demoreel include that too.
-Attend a showcase and impress them.
-Get a referral from a friend who is with the agency that you're interested in

DON'T
-Email them unless they tell you to. IT'S UNPROFESSIONAL!
-Call unless they tell you to. ALSO UNPROFESSIONAL!
-Walk in and ask for a meeting. UNPROFESSIONAL THREE!
-Sign with them if they ask for upfront money, make you take new photos with THEIR photographer, or take THEIR classes. Agent's ONLY make money when you do. Agents usually make 10% on film/tv and commercials and 20% on commercial print.

I’m 14 and i want to be an actress need advice please?

hi i’m 14 and i know i have some time to think about what i’m going to be. i just have this huge feeling that i want to be an actress really bad and think i actually could be an actress. my plan was to go to college and get a bachelors degree incase an actress isn’t what i turn out to be. but i would move to la and get a part time job so i can pay rent at an apartment and look for acting parts. the only problem is i’m kinda shy but when i’m around people i’m comfortable with i’m very loud. i would like some advice on if i should be one or not and some advice on how to start off and stuff (i do not have any acting experience but i’m think to myself that it shouldn’t be hard and i can be serious when i’m actually on a set) also i know that like only 1 percent make it and stuff.

Camera ready kids talent agency?

yes it is. oh and u need a backup plan when u become an actress because if u finished a film or television series and ur not working at the time, u should make money some other way...unless u become like rich.
