Awesome information.

Wouldn't a reel be better then a head shot? As I've looked at actors for my small budget short films, I've noticed that many times pictures can be very deceiving. They look great in the picture, but when you actually see them on camera, they're a different person almost. Any thoughts? Great video and great channel! Thanks so much for making them!

Generally I think you’re supposed to submit both along with your resume and audition tape if you have one

You two pack a fantastic amount of information in this. Do you have information about when an actor is at the right level to start submitting to agencies? I have a reel and (I think?) a decent headshot...

I see I have to seriously get cracking on the self-tape/demo reel, but am a little daunted with the limited resources at hand. Is there a particular format for the reels, other than they be under 2 to 3 minutes long?
