The Business of Film and Theatre
Online resumes generally include information about the vital statistics and education of the person. If the applicant has earlier been exposed to any form of acting either in films, stage or television, then this work experience should definitely be shown. Details of the work such as the production house, the director etc. should be mentioned. Also the type of role such as, supporting role, guest appearance etc.should be highlighted to convey versatility.
The resume must include all the skills that the applicant has acquired, such as the various languages known. Other skills include voice over training, voice coaches, acting classes, monologue training, stand up comedy and so on. The teachers and coaches' name should also be mentioned, as many of the trainers have a strong reputation. Finally, there has to be a photo gallery which includes pictures of the production work in which the applicant has featured. The ideal thing is to have photographs of both on-shoot as well as off-shoot. A video clip can also be attached. Needless to say there should be contact details including the email address and phone number of the agent. The online resume is not only beneficial to the actors as it saves a lot of phone and paper work in finding work but also for the casting personnel as they can reduce their screening time. An interesting thing about online resumes is that these sites have established acting indexes. It may be wise to pay for getting the name listed in established acting indexes. It is almost equivalent to buying an ad in any other acting journal. The internet can be an extremely effective tool for struggling actors to find there place in the acting world.
