I currently live in Bellingham, WA and after doing some researching I centrally located between Vancouver, BC and Seattle where there would be lots of opportunities to audition. The question is how do I actually get info where these auditions take place. It's like someone saying I'm going to leave a five bucks in the living room and if you find it you can keep it but I'm not going to tell you when I hide the money. Without knowing when there is not opportunity, with that being said is there any advice you guys could give me to find audtion info around my area where I've read has lot's of opportunites. I would like to avoid suspicous sites you have to pay for info in necessary, give you insight, thats guys!


Answer
You need an agent.
Most auditions nowadays are only cast through agents.
It's so that the casting directors don't get swamped with hundreds of untrained and inexperienced amateurs turning up for audition - when what they want is drama school graduates who have done loads of stage plays, student films, short films, etc.

Even when you find an open call, they ask to see your resume at the door, and if you're untrained and inexperienced, that's as far as you get.

To get into a good agency you'll need to have a resume detailing:
Your contact details and personal information, such as playing age, height, weight or build, hair length and colour.
The name of the drama school you attended, how long the course was, and when you graduated.
The details of extra courses you've attended, such as stage combat, accent and voice training, dance grades, singing grades, mime, mask, etc.
What accents you can do convincingly, what languages you speak.
A list of stage plays you've performed in, in public, and they should include all types of play - Shakespeare, Greek tragedy, comedy, drama, farce, musicals, period drama, etc. naming where they were performed, and the director's name.
A list of short films, student films, naming the directors.
A list of other experience, such as commercials, educational tours, promotional work.

You'd also need to have ready -
A good selection of professionally made headshots.
A professionally made showreel and voicereel.
Ideally, your own website, with all the above displayed and with links to your membership of professional organisations.
I think that's about it.
Hope that helps.
Good luck!
