Can you start an acting career in your teenage years?

I've always seen actors and actresses that started getting big roles in their teenage years, but can you start a career as a teenager?Can you start an acting career in your teenage years?
Unless you're a young teen, it will be difficult. Generally, because of SAG guidelines, productions will use 18+ actors for 15-17 year-old characters. The younger characters will often be cast with experienced child actors.





That said, the most important thing about acting many times is luck. Find a reputable acting class in your area and then a good head shot photographer and as many legitimate agents as you can submit to.Can you start an acting career in your teenage years?
Yes you can, this is my dream too and I am pursueing it. Do school plays and/or local theater. Try to get an agent, they help out a lot. Its also a good idea to maybe submit a few resumes even if you have no prior expieience to tv shows or casting directors. There are a lot of roles for teenagers on disney channel and nickelodean also.
You can. But remember that roles for adults outnumber roles for teens by more than a hundred to one. Adult actors are almost all unemployed. And they usually use a young looking 18 year old for teen roles. Your chances are remote.
Of course!


Start by taking acting classes, theater classes and\ or joining your schools acting club...inform yourself! check the net for clubs, classes, local theater groups in your area.


Its never to early to get into what your interested in!

Why not? If you have a really good talent that you love you could start working on it until you become something big. Give it a try!!!!lol!!!!
Sure no problem. Just remember most actresses and actors really make very little money when they start. There is an old expression. Sometimes an actress, always a waitress. Good Luck Kiddo
Of course. Get a lot of training and build up your resume. Also getting a headshot. And after that get an agent
ya!
yes
