Exploretalent is a SCAM! The ONLY legit sites are:

backstage.com
actorsaccess.com
mandy.com (be careful)
craigslist.org (same)

If you are in Ny...
nycastings.com
nycasting.com

If you are in LA..
lacasting.com

Get a headshot (I know a few.. if your interested). Get good training (NO JRP!! OR ACT!!). Do student films, theater, indies. Sign up for the above sites.

READ BOOKS! lol.
Self Management for Actors
How to be a Working Actor

You don't need an agent.... no alan baltes' websites... no big CD info... Start simple! Do community theater. Take some great classes. Do student films.

And, I don't know you, so I can't say this about you, but for the record, if your striving to be a star, please get the notion of stardom out of your head. If that is your goal, you don't want to be an actor. You want to be star. In which case, your not serious about this.

If you have any questions, email me.
