Looking Good

Digital photography has changed the ground rules not only for photographers, but for actors and models too. It's now possible for anactor to be a collaborator in creating a headshot. Digital can eliminate the risk of getting a less-than-desirable headshot if an actor has a firm idea of just what makes for a very good headshot. For a starting-out actor, especially, it greatly reduces the probability of having to hire yet another photographer for yet another attempt at a good headshot. Looking Good is the first handbook to teach you how to effectively collaborate with a photographer to achieve an effective, audition-getting headshot. It also includes a useful section on how to take advantage of new printing technology to deliver a superior resume.Prior to launching his career as a New York headshot and theater photographer, ELLIS GASKELL owned a successful advertising andpromotional marketing agency that he sold to a media conglomerate in 1997. His marketing background prompted him to consider the ways which headshots work to help artists get auditions. Ellis divides his time between New York City and Westport, Connecticut, with his wife of 40 years, Jackie.
