I've recently signed on to produce the play "Suicide Math" at the New York International Fringe Festival. We're currently in the process of casting, and I'm reminded again of how often actors get in their own way.
So I'm combing through the submissions, and I finally see a headshot I like. Solid resume. Solid training. Great. I'll bring him in. Then I look at his other headshots and I see something that resembles a family vacation photo. I shake my head and move on.
We get hundreds of submissions. We bring in maybe 40 people. Every detail counts. We want to work with perfectionists. We have to be picky. If you can't manage to present yourself in a professional manner then what does that say about the commitment to your craft?
