Director Jane Campion was looking for a little girl to play a main role in The Piano, set to film in New Zealand, and a newspaper advertisement was run announcing an open audition. Paquin's sister read the ad and went to try out with a friend; this inspired Paquin to audition. When Campion met Paquin—whose only acting experience had been as a skunk in a school play—she was very impressed with the nine-year-old's performance of the monologue about Flora's father, and she was chosen from among the 5000 candidates. When The Piano was released in 1993 it was lauded by critics, won prizes at a number of film festivals, and eventually became a popular film among a wide audience. Paquin's debut performance in the film earned her the 1994 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress at the age of 11, making her the second-youngest Oscar winner in history, behind Tatum O'Neal.

The Piano was made as a small independent film and was not expected to be widely known, and Paquin and her family did not plan to continue to pursue acting. However, she was invited to the William Morris Agency, and she kept receiving offers for new roles. She systematically rejected them, but she did appear in three commercials for the phone company MCI in 1994.{{cite news|location=New York|date=5 January 2006|title=Verizon and MCI Close Merger, Creating a Stronger Competitor for Advanced Communications Services|url=http://newscenter.verizon.com/press-releases/verizon/2006/page-29672197.html|work=Verizon Communications}}{{Dead link|date=March 2022 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes}} She later made a series of television commercials for Manitoba Telecom Systems in her birth city of Winnipeg.{{cite news |url=http://djuna.cine21.com/anna/27.html |work=CNW Group |date=6 October 1997 |title=Anna Paquin to be MTS's Celebrity Spokesperson Academy Award Winning Actor Stars in MTS Commercials Beginning Today |access-date=29 August 2011 |location=Winnipeg |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080512061235/http://djuna.cine21.com/anna/27.html |archive-date=12 May 2008 |url-status=dead}} She also appeared as a voice in an audiobook entitled The Magnificent Nose in 1994.

Paquin was cast as waitress Sookie Stackhouse in the HBO series True Blood in 2008, her first role in a TV series.
