My profile

Hi, I’m fairly new to acting and made a Mandy account not too long ago. I just want some honest advice regarding my profile (what to include, what to remove) so I can secure all these jobs I’ve been applying. Also any tips on how to further my acting career would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Furhaan,
I'd take off the personal picture as it looks unprofessional - use professional headshots only. Although you can gain a lot of experience doing extra work simply by being on set and watching those experienced people around you, most would say that it is not acting work at all so I'd take off the extra work completely. I know that leaves you with little, but training is the key and being completely honest, even with training and experience it's tough out there. Most applications you send you will hear nothing. If it's extra work you're after - save your money by coming off this site and join an extras agency. If you want to be an actor - look at some courses - training, training and more training all the way; then start with student films. Good luck.
