To get started, take ANY role (but be sensible, of course) you are offered.

I mean, not like in a pornographic movie or anything, but even a non-Union film, or start in radio or news. ANYTHING to do with the entertainment business will get you one step further.

Take classes. Nothing helps more than either reading a book or watching a tutorial video or EVEN taking a hands-on course at a local Drama studio or college.

I'll give you a good example regarding my second paragraph. I've been told I'm a great writer, so I started sending in scripts to producers. They took them instantly, and we produced a short film. Then; one day fooling around in the lunch room in the studio; I began reading from my script. The director saw; loved me, and ever since I've been acting in plays, movies, commercials, music videos, news and radio. I guess I had it easy; since all I had to do was write a script and within a month I was acting, but for others it's next to impossible to get started.

One tip: never give up.

Hope this helped and good look with you're acting career!
