You can be an amazing actor, but no one will know until they see you! Acting Headshots have become an absolute necessity in today’s acting profession. But there are so many questions when you decide to get your acting headshots done. “Am I ready to take my acting career to the next level? How many headshots should I have? What headshot photographer should I use?”. These questions are very important and need to be answered by talent agents, casting directors and TVI Actors Studio career coaches.

Many actors love the opportunity to work as a “presenter”, that is, host for a Television show, game show, reality TV show. While it can be financially rewarding, it is also challenging work. It is not always easy to be “YOU” in front of a camera, especially you are having a bad day. That is why actors oftentimes make great host’s. There is a technique involved. It involves energy, personality, confidence and the ability to think on your feet. Consider taking an intensive class with Barbara Barna. She has cast for jut about every show out there; from HGTV to “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” and everything in between. Its not just a chance to meet her, but actually work with somebody who can evaluate your skill set and get you going in the right direction. Barbara will be teaching at TVI Actors Studio. Find out more!

I wonder if you are like me. As a kid, when I saw someone my age playing a character on television, I wondered, “how did they get the job?” Even though I knew nothing about casting, agents, LA or NY, the idea that if someone was on TV, why couldn’t it be me-became my mantra. I continued to have those thoughts through High School and College. Over time, I eventually achieved my goals. If there is any advice I can give (now I am old enough to pass it along) it is this; It all comes down to “Learn By Doing”. Putting yourself in the best position to learn and grow with classes, meeting industry pros, remaining teachable. That is the key. So, follow your passion, create yourself, always be the student. FYI Candice Alustiza, Casting Associate for “Ugly Betty” is teaching at TVI TVI Actors Studio
