    Many, if not all, casting agencies offer internships. Reach out to agencies in your area and let them know you are interested.

    In the meantime it would help if you studied drama. You gotta know what makes a good actor before you can start casting them!

    Good luck!

    Drama seems like the obvious choice but focus on the production side of those classes. Also, if never hurts if you make friends with everybody in your classes. This helps with networking.
