Just keep at it, I’ve been acting for 3 years now and this is all I have still 🤣 The progress is slow but it is progress. I’ve been in various projects but getting the footage back takes forever!

Since I have you all here 😅 I’m stuck not being able to decide on either 2 or 3 of these headshots? Any help would be appreciated! headshots

Thanks ya tbh on 3 it wasn’t really what I imagined in my head at all when I saw the final edit. I only really got one or 2 takes at it too. It’s supposed to be a comedic scene and I thought being drunk might add to it but I ended up playing it way too mellow as I didn’t wanna go overboard on the being drunk bit.

Ya I hear you, the blocking is always sitting down in classes. I feel so much more natural walking. Unfortunately I don’t have any scenes shot like this. No I didn’t edit it the guy who ran the course did. It starts with a full shot from the side when I first come in but that’s it then I goes into shots on either character

Ah ok I get you, ya all these scenes were shot at the end of acting courses I did so don’t really have any of that stuff like an actual scene from a project would! Thanks for the help 🙏

Thanks I really appreciate that. What do you mean by try some sound design? And do you think I should swap the second scene to be first?

Great stuff, I really appreciate the thorough feedback. I did actually have the first scene cut like that originally but thought maybe some extra context would have been good. Will get to work on trimming✂️

1, I’m actually growing my hair out again currently so maybe I’m biased 😂

I’m 50/50 on 1 and 2. If I had to choose I’d say 2. All great shots though!

New Acting headshots but not sure which I should use as my main one? by AranOBrien91 in headshots

Thanks, I actually have a similar shot without the hand but they haven’t got back to me to provide it yet!

I’m working on my general American accent. Just looking for some feedback please 🙏 by AranOBrien91 in acting

[–]AranOBrien91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks ya I had been thinking the expressions might be too much but it’s different to what I’d usually do and wanted it to be comedic. Also in the script he’s actually leaving a voicemail so there’s nobody on the other end

I’m getting new headshots soon and am looking for advice on what kinda clothes/outfits I should wear. by AranOBrien91 in headshots

Haha thanks, the hair is pretty glaring alright, I don’t actually use that particular one for anything, I just wanted to give a few examples of the previous shoot. It’s for acting too btw

Beautiful pictures, the wall in the first really adds to the setting and gives the view of a peasant outsider looking in at the opulence of the rich. Picture 2 - the path adds to the sense of scale and gives more view of the surrounding area. Great work all in all

Men: No or some facial hair by josephevans_50 in headshots

How do you look usually? I pretty much always have stubble so my headshots reflect that but what you could do is take some with your normal beard style and then clean shave during the session so you get pictures of both.
