What are headshots?

0

Headshots are standard show business pictures. They are 8×10 with your name printed on the bottom and resume attached to the back. In NYC, black and white pictures are most often used. In LA, they prefer color. A headshot can be a picture of just your head & shoulders, or a 3/4 shot which shows your upper body and waist as well. To see some examples of headshots, please visit our links page and check out the photographers’ work. There are many other kinds of photos used in show business such as comp/zed cards for modeling and even snapshots which are fine to use for little kids. Most often, though, a standard headshot is expected for all submissions.
