Your Headshot: Make It Look "Expensive" and Real

Your headshot is your first impression in the acting world. It needs to look professional, showing that you’re invested in your career. A cheap headshot implies you’re not serious, and casting directors can spot it. AI-generated headshots? They can tell those too, and often discard them immediately.

Expressions Matter

Your headshot should showcase a strong, confident expression. Avoid looking uncomfortable or worried, as it signals inexperience. A compelling expression can make all the difference.

Be Specific

Your headshot must clearly convey your type. Casting directors should instantly see where you fit and if you’re right for the role. Specificity helps you stand out.

Keep It Simple

Avoid distracting backgrounds or elements in your headshot. A clean, focused shot keeps the attention on you, not on unnecessary distractions.

Look Like Yourself

Your headshot should be a true representation of how you look. Overdoing makeup and hair can be misleading. Casting directors want you to look the same as your headshot when you show up for an audition.

Minimal Retouching

Casting directors dislike over-retouched photos. Keep retouching minimal to maintain a natural, realistic appearance. Light retouching is fine, but you should look like the best version of yourself, not an airbrushed image.

Invest in a high-quality, professional headshot that truly represents you. It shows casting directors you’re serious about your career and ready for the role.
