Acting is a business and you are the product. In the past actors have had to place their career in the hands of their agent and publications like The Spotlight in order to gain employment.. Today (although we still rely heavily on these things), actors are becoming much better at marketing themselves and finding their own work.
The internet is being used more and more for the purposes of casting and having an online presence is an excellent way of showcasing yourself. You can place your website address on all your marketing tools. CV, Business Cards, Photographs
Having a good website will give you a professional presence on the web and being in possession of your own domain name i.e. www.david-jones.co.uk can give you a degree of credibility. Actors’ websites can also be very economical as directors can view your CV, Headshots, Showreel, Voicereel etc all in one place without you having to go to the expense of sending out copies.
We have teamed up with the following web design studio specialising in websites for actors.
