Success in this industry means a lot of different things, and will come in different ways for different people.
There arent many actors who can afford to quit their day jobs, so don't be blue about that.
Ive had a look at your CCPro profile, and I think I have a few suggestions which could work for you:
Whats GOOD about your profile:
You have a showreel - thats great and there is some good footage in there, but I'd like to see some footage where there is a greater contrast in characters. Great start though! SO many actors rely on just music video footage.
Your'e obviously creating a lot of your own work with Silentwood - that's fantastic, but I'd aim to get some variation in the top 5 credits, just so employers can see that other companies have enjoyed your contribution as well.
Education tab is SOLID. That looks fantastic. A big fat TICK there.
Accents look great, but just be sure you can actually do them. Far too many casting directors have their time wasted by people who say they can do a Cockney accent and end up sounding like an aggressive Australian with a bad case of sinusitis. EXCELLENT if you really can do those accents.
What could do with some work:
Headshots are key, and sadly, I dont think the ones you have are the key to grabbing the attention of casting directors.
Remember, you're a white, male, with brown hair. That's probably more than half of the UK, male actors population!
You need variety. Out of the 5 headshots you display, the only two that stand out are the two coloured photos at the end of the reel. The rest (including your main headshot) are too washed out and bright. Id switch your main profile picture the one coloured one by Malcolm Bull. That one is fab and would get me interested in seeing more of you.
DEFINITELY invest in some new, varied shots - I have a cost effective tip for that coming up for you in a moment.
Your 'About me' and 'Additional Info' tabs.
These need some serious life injected into them. I found myself thinking that youre trying too hard to be a 'serious' actor. Yes, dedication is key, but the directors and companies looking at you know this already and know that every other actor they are looking at has the same views. They want to know more about what makes you UNIQUE.
The only part I'd be interested in in that paragraph is the following - " I am a very positive, outgoing and friendly person. I integrate well with others and love new challenges".
Thats great, because Id want to know this about a person I am hiring, but then tell me something surprising and relevant to the profession. Tell me something that I will remember!
Your skills are interesting, because not everyone can skii, but make more of them. IE; Stage combat (armed/unarmed/weapons). You say 'Athletic - specify how. It could be changed to something like 'Proficient runner with own sports gear'. (ONLY if it is true though).
You have a drivers license - if its a full, clean drivers license list that additional info.
Would you be happy to travel abroad for work ? List it if so with the fact you have a valid, UK passport. Be creative!
Here are some other tips which I have found work well for me:
Get your friendly cyber-stalker on!
Search for people and production companies on IMDB whose work inspires you. Add them on Twitter and Facebook and don't be afraid to engage with hem. Give out some likes, re-tweet, engage in relevant conversations which you think you could bring some knowledge or an opinion to.
Keep your photos and headshots current and varied. Go for colour. Get some full body shots.
I found it VERY useful to get in touch with photographers who are offering TFP (Time for print) work. The best site for this (as much as I love CCPro) would be *Starnow.co.uk*
TFP photographers want to expand their portfolios and flex their muscles as photographers, and you want a bunch of shots which show you off to casting directors in all different ways. Be adventurous. Do you have a killer set of abs? Whip them out in a tasteful shot. Some of the shots might not be suitable for CCPro, but you can always attach them to external applications and a variety of shots will get you noticed. One of the best points of reference for this is my Actor friend (and awesome person) Jon Campling. Check him out on CCPro. He has a killer set of shots, many of which he actually took himself and edited. Its not being self centered or self-indulgent. Its necessary to show casting directors what they want to find in a character because they only have a shot amount of time to cast people and they dont have time to use their imaginations too much. Extra shots with a TFP photographer would be a Win-Win situation for you both!
Finally
Be NICE to whoever you meet in the industry. You will be amazed how small this acting world is. And if you help other people on their way up, they might well be there to help you when you are down :)
Goodluck!
