Actors and Models
Your acting or modelling portfolio is a true first impression of yourself as an actor or model.
A great headshot can not only get you called in for an audition, but it can also get you booked directly for a job. Many actors and models are booked directly from their photos in their portfolio without having to attend an audition.
This is why the photos in your portfolio are so important.
Your portfolio will be what sells you when you are looking for a acting gig or modelling job. It can make or break your career.
The quality of the photos you choose to put in your Portfolio is important. These photos need to impress agencies and clients and make you stand out from the rest.
It’s better to have fewer photos that are great than having more that are of poor quality.
As a new actor or model, aim to include between 6 – 12 photos; especially when you are presenting yourself to a new agency or client.
Stand out with your Acting and Modeling Portfolio!
As an established actor or model, your Portfolio should have between 10 – 25 photos.
The purpose of an Acting or Modeling Portfolio is to show your good looks and to also demonstrate your ability to portray different characters and personalities.
For this reason it is important to include good headshot photographs.
When it comes to wearing makeup for your headshots, it should be very simple but very well done. If you normally don’t wear makeup then it is silly to pile it on for your headshots. The headshots would look unnatural. If you never wear Makeup but would feel more comfortable wearing some that accentuate your features in a subtle way then book this in with me.
Your make up should help the viewer focus on the eyes and the mouth which are the essence of a great portrait.
I recommend to wear what you would wear on a normal day but more polished.
