Create Internet videos that showcase your talent. If you can cry on command, make a video that displays your talents. Upload your Internet video to popular sites like YouTube, Blip.tv and Break.
Star in low-budget movies. Low-budget films need as many people as they can. Most of the time, you will be working for free, but it will provide you with some work experience. Look at online sites such as Acting Jobs, ExploreTalent and BackStage.com. You also never know who is watching the video, as it could get into the hands of a Hollywood mogul.
Large, big-budget films are always looking for extras for scenes. Look in trade magazines and advertisements for casting calls for extras. This is a great way to show your face to Hollywood executives, actors and directors. Read trade journals and online magazines catering to the movie industry for jobs as extras. These magazines and sites include "Variety," Entertainment Careers and the Los Angeles section of Craigslist.
If you have a specific talent, even if it is weird, you can use it to your advantage. Showcase your talent online and offline. If many people find it interesting, you may get some proposals to be in films. Solicit one of the hundreds of talent agencies, talent representatives and casting directors located throughout the country. Send them information about and show them your talent.
