How To Correctly Self-Tape
Your Commercial Acting Clips
Needed Now More Than Ever
Many actors are still stuck in the dark ages, believing that they can’t get a good agent because they don’t have reel to show that they have acting experience. They believe the catch 22 of not being able to book acting work because they don’t have an agent. And when seeking an agent, they always ask to see a reel. That’s the old system. Things have changed for the better! Oh yes! Agents do still expect to see media on your profile. Here’s how you do it!
Today, you create your own reel. You do it by creating a few 30 seconds to 1-minute “clips.” According to top agents, they will not even respond to an actor submission if they don’t have clips (a 20 to 30 second commercial copy read clip and a Personality Slate) on their casting profiles (Casting Networks, Actors Access, Casting Frontier, Backstage). Many actors are still using the old-outdated model and not getting zero results when looking for an agent. Most agents believe that if actors kept their finger of the pulse of the industry, they’d be aware if industry changes and new-normals.
