how do actors or beginning actors find casting calls & auditions?

you can look in the phone book for community theaters, their open calls, you can check

nearby colleges for student film ops. you can find open calls in the acting trade magazines

like VARIETY,HOLLYWOOD REPORTER or BACKSTAGE. they are all about whats going

on in show bus. for auditions of a commercial professional nature you need an agent and

to be where the auditions are held to know about those.

Start from the bottom and work your way up. If you are looking to really go somewhere start building a resume. Find a local community theatre in your area and audition for them and others like it. You'll land roles and just work your way up to auditioning for bigger things. Build your resume and also get headshots done. Then once your resume starts to get impressive you can sear in other states.

You need to find a casting company. LA Chicago, New York. I work out of one in Chicago. Good Luck...
