SlateShots for Actors Access are 4-7 second videos that bring your headshots to life.
They give casting a sense of what you look, what you sound like, and if you fit the tone and style of the piece they’re casting — and if you’re crazy.
Profiles submitted with both a video reel and a SlateShot are pushed to the very top of the casting director’s submission queue.
When done poorly, they can be awkward and unnatural. When done with a sense of ease, the SlateShot can be an effective marketing tool.
