Formatting Your Acting Resume

Everyone once in awhile we meet a casting director or agent who says the first and most important thing they look at with an actor is....that's right....their resume! Are you prepared for such a meeting? Your resume is more than a list of credits. It's a marketing tool that tells industry folks a years-long story about your training and work From industry-standard formatting to showcasing training, experience, and special skills, every detail is a factor in how you're perceived. This conversation explores how to build a resume that is professional, easy to read, and tailored to the work you want to book. Whether you're creating your first resume or updating one you've had for years, these insights can help you put your best foot forward!  Hosted by Misha Calvert Edited by Jonah Krynski Music by Zeyu Wang If you liked this episode, slide into our DMs!

3 Things Every Actor Needs

Do you know the most important marketing materials for an actor? It’s simple, and yet so many actors are not up to date with these things. Headshot. Resume. Reel.
