in meantime, parents can research industry , can determine whether move @ time in life. don't have professional actor child have professional acting career adult. can attending acting school/program after high school if you're serious professional acting career adult.
if decide try career minor, when you're ready (with training, experience, , emotionally) can start talent agent. companies invest lot of money productions , they're going trust investment trained , experienced professionals. casting done through talent agents. how works this: casting director sends out "breakdown" (a description of role want cast) licensed talent agents , managers. the agent goes through breakdowns , submits clients appropriate roles , work client auditions. professional actor you're going need talent agent.
, can't go out , hire talent agent. agents paid percentage of clients make (never pay agent front). since agents paid if clients paid, picky take on clients. , can afford picky because there ton more people wanting actors , needing agent there parts. agents interested in people have acting training , experience.
if don't have agent, can "self submit". means sending in head shot , resume directly casting director without agent. if casting director interested in you, they'll contact audition. pretty rare, can happen. , if don't live in la, it's rarer (like next impossible). best bet focus on getting acting training , experience finding talent agent represent you.
we're talking huge investment of time, effort , money , parents. , there's no guarantee of return on investment. may never "make it". if you're looking fame, attention, popularity or money - you're going disappointed. not saying can't try - if do, make sure it's right reasons.
