Just dropped a brand new YouTube video that will help all actors who are struggling to understand their casting type! You’ll have it nailed down in under 10 minutes! đŸ‘‡đŸŽŹđŸ”„
[NEW VID] How To Figure Out Your Casting Type (In Under 10 Minutes) Watch here: youtu.be/VbKzpvLa2ls One of the biggest reasons actors struggle to get auditions... ...is because they're trying to market themselves before they've figured out one crucial thing. 👉 Their casting type. And honestly? Most actors massively overcomplicate it. 😅 They can't pin it down to one simple phrase that casting directors instantly understand. So I've just uploaded a new YouTube video showing you a super-simple exercise to figure out your casting type in under 10 minutes. 👀 In the video, I break down: 👇 🎬 The 4 questions that reveal how the industry sees you. 🎬 Why most actors get casting type completely wrong. 🎬 How to identify the roles you're naturally right for. 🎬 And how understanding your casting type makes marketing yourself SO much easier. Headshots. Showreels. Spotlight. Submissions. Auditions. They all become easier when you understand where you fit in the industry. PLUS... I'll show you my own casting type, the roles I've booked on 40 TV shows, and why understanding this one thing can save you years of confusion. Would genuinely love to know what YOU think your casting type is after watching! Ross :)

is putting LOADS of effort into self-tapes
 
and hearing absolutely nothing back. 😅 But honestly? Sometimes it’s not your performance that’s costing you the job. It’s everything AROUND the performance. So I’ve just uploaded a breakdown of the EXACT self-tape that booked me a role on Coronation Street! 👀 In the video, I break down:👇 🎬 The actual tape I sent to casting. 🎬 Why I think it worked. 🎬 The kit & setup we used. 🎬 And the small mistakes that can instantly make self-tapes look amateur. Lighting. Sound. Framing. Eyelines. Reader choice. Even props. PLUS
 At the end of the video, I compare my ORIGINAL self-tape with the FINAL scene that aired on TV. 😅 Would genuinely love to know your biggest takeaway after watching! Ross :)
