| Topic: Headshots | ||
|---|---|---|
| Hi I just got some new headshots taken and I was just wondering what you lovely people thought about them (playing age, casting type, which should be used as my lead headshot etc). I've been looking at them so much lately it's beginning to make me cross eyed haha | ||

| hi grace...yep know what you mean...when you get new shots done trying to figure out best can be nightmare..try not to use family and friends , stick to industry and if you can cds agents etc.. I personally think you have potentially a great range in casting from english rose through to southern european and even far eastern..Again playing age 18 through to 30.. my choice of shot for what its worth is the one with hair back i think it was 5th down .. its a younger looking shot but your features really stand out..all the beast aidan x | |

| Hi Grace, Very nice shots they are too. I see roles like the sexy receptionist that is more than meets the eye (spy, murderer, etc); or maybe a scheming businesswoman that teases the men in the office; and I also see comedy in there too, in a sort of Smack The Pony-esque style (if you know that show?). Good luck & I hope they get you a troughful of work!! | |

| Thanks! there are some casting types I would never have thought of there! I actually think I look younger in person (not sure why but whenever i get headshots done they look like me...but mostly a few years older!) as I am always cast as teenagers (15-18yr olds mainly!) and am always asked to show id for superglue and silly things like that! I suppose having shots where I look older will be good for broadening the upper limit of my range as I cant play teenagers for ever! Keep your opinions coming! | |

| having just viewed my images from a different computer I have realised that they look different (I think its a screen brightness thing as my home pc is very dark!) and I look younger in them than I thought I did...but still slightly older than I normally do (in comparison to the photos from a book trailer shoot I did only last month for example)...if any of that makes sense! haha Still keep your opinions coming as they have been very useful so far! | |
