Step by step
- 1Bio: 2–4 short paragraphs. Lead with the work you do, not where you studied.
- 2Credits: title, role, production company / director, year. Group by medium (TV / film / theatre / commercial).
- 3Media: 1 hero headshot, 3–6 alternative shots, and 1 showreel. Add self-tapes only if recent and strong.
Helpful notes & tips
- Credits with links to IMDb, production websites, or streaming pages look more credible.
Common issues
- Generic bio: if yours starts with “I am a passionate actor...”, rewrite it. Specifics beat adjectives every time.
