If You're Not Getting Called
By Casting Directors, Producers & Directors ... It's Probably
Not You - It's Your Headshot!
If Your Headshot Doesn't Even Get You
'In The Door' ...
Nothing Else Can Ever Happen. Discover What You
Can Do
To Get A Headshot
That Works .... No
Matter Who Takes The Picture.
From:
Bob Fraser
To: Professional Actors
Are
you getting ready to lay out some serious cash for headshots?
If
they don't 'turn out'– can you afford to try again? ... and
again? ... and again?
If
the idea of spending hundreds (maybe thousands) of dollars
trying to figure out the whole 'headshot
thing' makes you a little sick to your stomach ... please
take 6 minutes to
read this letter.
It
may save you a small fortune ... and a lot of frustration.
Hi,
my name is Bob Fraser and I've been giving actors career advice for
several decades. First as an actor myself, then as a producer/director
in theatre and television – and now in my retirement.
One
of the key elements to building a successful acting career is something
I try to impress on all the actors I talk to: If you're
not getting called in -regularly - by people in the buyers chain, your
headshot is not doing its job!
There's
a reason why agents, managers and other career professionals often
start their relationship with an actor by telling them to get new
headshots: Because, if your headshot doesn't 'work,'
then all
the rest
of their efforts (and yours) will be a waste of time.
Now,
I'm going to assume that you're talented and you've spent some
time training – and I'm absolutely positive that you love
acting or
you wouldn't still be reading ... but the bottom line is simple ...
Without
a headshot that works – it's hard to 'get in the door.
Your
headshot is your #1 marketing tool ... and if it isn't working
– I can practically guarantee that your career will continue
to suffer.
By
the
way, none of this is about what you look like ... or which photographer
you pick. Don't make the mistake of thinking that getting your
headshots is simply a matter of finding a good photographer and showing
up. Or,
that
as long as it's a really clear, well-lit picture - it will be sufficient
It
just
doesn't work that way.
Watch
the red carpet, where actors are getting their pictures taken by
hundreds of photographers (of varying skills). The better
the actor is at the job, the better the pictures turn out
... no matter who snaps the shutter!
'Working
actors' almost always look good in photographs because
they know what
they're doing when the shutters are clicking.
One important
skill is always looking like yourself in the photo - communicating your
'character' effortlessly. This
is
not a skill that comes naturally to very many people.
The
question is: Do you want to pay a small fortune to learn these skills?
Get Good Information ... And
Much Better
Results Without Breaking the Bank.
The
fact is that most professional headshot photographers will know
precisely when to snap the shot (that's their expertise),
but if you're not prepared to do your part then getting a working
headshot can be an never ending round of "trying" – again and
again.
Frankly,
a 'working' headshot is only possible when the actor sitting
in front of the camera (that's you) knows what they're doing.
If
you're not getting called in from your submissions – if your
agent isn't getting positive results – if you're not getting 'in the
door' ... the problem is likely to be a headshot that
isn't doing the job.
In
other words, your headshot just doesn't cut it.
If
you want to make forward progress in your career as a professional
actor – you MUST HAVE a headshot that gets you called in.
Because,
if you don't get in the door – you can't show them what you
can do!
Bottom
Line? There's no real reason to continue to put up with the
disappointment and frustration of an underperforming headshot.
No
More Guesswork, Anxiety, or
Frustration ... Information Makes All The Difference

  "When
I purchased Headshot
Secrets Revealed
I was a little worried that it was just another one of those things
that wouldn't really help that much. But since my headshots didn't seem
to be working - and since the course is guaranteed ... I figured, "What
the hell."
"Wow!
What a difference real information makes. My new shots are amazing and
my 'call-in' rate has tripled or quadrupled. This is THE course I
recommend to my friends when they have headshot issues. Thanks Bob."

  "I'm
extremely pleased with what Bob's Headshot
Secrets Revealed
has done for me. I knew that headshots were important, but I was naive
about just how important they are in this business. After studying and
studying this course, I went and had new headshots done.
"I
felt like i was taking a
test. I was trying to remember everything Headshot
Secrets Revealed taught me – while at my shoot –
and
putting all that knowledge to work.
"And
you know what? It completely paid off! Ever since I've sent my new
shots to my agency, I haven't stopped getting calls. In fact within a
month's time I landed two music videos for Van Zant and Garth Brooks,
based solely off my headshot. I can only look forward to more success
in the future. Thanks Bob."

  "Headshot
Secrets Revealed
makes it clear that it's up to you how your headshot photo sessions go.
The choice of photographer can help, but ultimately you determine the
outcome. This course illustrates that it is more than just sitting
there while the photographer clicks away. Bob outlines the importance
of correct eye contact ... and the unique character presentation that
is
expressed. A headshot must aptly present who you are and what you are
trying to sell.
"You
only have about two seconds to make an impression on a casting director
before being tossed aside ... your headshot must hold the casting
director's attention. it must have that "pop" that Fraser outlines in
the course. I highly recommend Headshot
Secrets Revealed – it has helped my career
immensely and saved me years of needless
toil. The course is also filled with tips and advice about headshot
marketing and what exactly goes into this process.

  "Headshot
Secrets Revealed
is absolutely a must have for any actor seriously pursuing a career in
the biz. The course is designed to lead you to that perfect headshot
that stops the viewer in their tracks – and makes them want
to
know more about you. The course is very detailed and guides you through
the process easily – from start to finish. I found it very
clear
and easy to understand ... the steps one needs to take.
"It
is very evident that Bob knows exactly what he is talking about ...
with his guidance you will get great headshots. I am very happy with
the results of my last photo session and I'm looking forward to getting
even better at this skill, as I practice the techniques Bob has taught
me. He's doing the acting community a great service by making this
information available and affordable."

  "I
have to confess that I hate having my headshots taken. I've always felt
that I'm not very 'photogenic.' Over the years I've had headshots taken
by many various professional photographers. I've never been satisfied
with them. My pictures just didn't seem to capture my personality. When
I'm spending hundreds of dollars to get the right shot - it puts a lot
of pressure on me to perform. Inevitably I'm disappointed. Instead of
getting the picture that 'pops' and sells me, I get that 'stressed out'
look. Basically I've wasted a lot of money over the years.
"Headshot
Secrets Revealed
gave me information that helped me get a true picture - that revealed
my true essence. I don't dread headshots anymore, I enjoy them. Thank
you, Bob, for sharing the secrets of getting that great headshot."

  "A
year ago, there were a lot of things wrong with my acting career
starting with my commitment, mindset, audition skills, and my
headshots. After getting a recommendation from a friend, I
purchased You
Must Act!, Nail
It! and Headshot
Secrets Revealed.
"I began working on my new headshots after neglecting their importance
to getting into the doors of casting directors. Using Bob's easy to
follow guidance, I got headshots that actually worked. They are now
getting me in the door.
"I'm
now working on my
audition skills with Nail
It!
I'm sure that bookings will follow. Thank you Bob for everything. I'm
finally taking the steps to achieve the success I now know I can have."
