Acting : May I ? Suggestion by Simon © Simon

May I ? Suggestion

I am putting a movie together and digging through actors in my area to Network with... I am finding head shots that look like they were scanned from a 1985 yearbook. OR some have decided to use a Black and white or Sepia (even worse) as a head shot without any industry standards. Front, Side, Full body (recent) height measurements etc. NOT ALL but Many... 1 Pic is all you have and you want an acting Job? Despite without a reel. You do realize it is your look first, lines second to get you to be considered.... With today's cameras there is NO REASON not to have 3 Good shots updated in your Profile. IF you are one of the guilty and wonder why a Casting Director or Producer has not approached, or bothered to Network with you. You might want to tune up your Profiles. If you have your profile filled in and or done right; I bet you are involved or slated maybe even attached through this year already. /Rant> Big community, great opportunities, not being accessed. Thank you, Simon©Simon

Hey Simon I totally agree! It's the #1 mistake people make on social media - not having a filled out or updated profile - and I see it all the time! Thanks for taking the time to write this out and share it.
