This can qualify  as a "glamour shots" This doesnt closely resemble the everyday Los Angeles i know. Its probably taken early Sunday morning or Public holiday. I happen to attend school in Cal state Los Angeles and University of Los Angeles, California.

Don't believe the hype. Save your money!

@ suxes2005

Congrats on going to CSUN, its a great school. There are numerous opportunities for you to get involved with showbusiness here in LA. If you find the right connections, you can start off being an "extra" (person who plays random roles), and make about $500+ for doing just a few scenes. If you find yourself being an extra in film after film, you will have quite a miniature fortune lol. From there you might just find your way into larger roles. . .but don't get your hopes too high (no offense).

In all honesty though, if you don't have the right connections, you won't make it anywhere. Lots of people are fooled into believing hollywood is some place where you can magically walk into an audition room and become an actor. Its not that easy. If you want to get into that business, you need to have some exposure. Go to a few playhouses, get involved in some drama clubs, etc. That is how you gain your connections. If you're not interested in film, there are many other things out there for you to do. Best of luck. Smiley
