Casting Directors Keeping Your Headshot
Jul 25th, 2009 by Alan Yu
Just the other day I self submitted myself for a commercial as the description seemed to be something that was within my range. Unfortunately, by the time I submitted the session was already full and the casting director informed me of this.
The interesting thing though was that she asked if it was okay to keep my headshot and of course I was fine with that. It was kind of strange though as I would think this kind of thing is a normal practice. After thinking about it, I think I saw more positives out of that remark.
I never seen this casting director before personally and I’m betting she has never even heard of me either. However, I think her asking if it was okay to keep my headshot was another way of saying that she thought I had a good look that may be suitable for future projects that she was casting for. In that sense, I guess it’s really good.
