Default I cannot believe it!

I was approached by a casting director today and he asked me to register on his books! He wants details about me and a headshot and some details about stuff i can do! He says he really wants to get me into some serious acting and try and find me some productions and possibly Tv work. He thinks i could make it big if i keep focused and organised. I actually cannot believe it! He was a visitor at school today and came into my drama class to watch my monologue because my Drama teacher emailed him, telling him how she thought i was talented in acting and had a career in it!

I am so excited now! But i am not sure what to do for my headshot? Do i pull a pose or something? I have never done this before. I am mactually Crazily excited! My music teacher says i have a big future in singing if i carry on and now acting! I feel so happy! Any tips about that headshot then? I know Fom is in to his acting

Thats fantastic news Lewis, you must be over the moon.
I wish i was told things like that once in a while. i kind of regret not taking Drama for GCSE because my teacher said i had amazing potential in year 9.

I have no idea what you should do for headshots though.

Thanks Guys! I cannot believe it! He just emailed me!"

"Hey Lewis,

It is nice to hear that you are intrested in my offer. I am really excited about you and with a bit of effort from both ways, i think you could have a hugely successful career out of acting. You have the right age and acting skill to go straight into big projects and hopefully, when we meet again in a couple of weeks, we can start discussing your future in Acting. I heard you are a great singer and your music teacher let me hear one of your demo's and what can i say? Wow! You would be great for the music industry aswell. I hope that we can combine the two and make you even more successful! Thanks a lot for taking on my offer and i wish you luck and look forward to meeting you and your Drama teacher next Saturday. I am looking forward to working with such a rare talent

Chris"

Ahhh! I am so ecxtatic! It is unbelievable!

That sounds pretty damn lucky, best of luck to that. Keep working hard and you never know what might happen.

In regards to the headshot, it needs to be plain and in black and white. You need to hire a professional photographer and they will give you a contact sheet of about 100 photos, then you pick one picture then ask them to print off a certain amount of photos, you should get them all printed professionally and never photocopy them.
But if you get a digital copy, the director can do plenty.

btw, was he a director or an agent? :S

Erm guys, its a director. Not some business man, it was an informal e-mail to a kid, I doubt Grammar was on his top list. How many directors do you talk too? lmao.

Hey guys, I just looked through my old emails and saw this letter... I don't know why I didn't go ahead with modelling;

"Hello Ross,
it's me; Alan. It is nice to hear that you are intrested in modelling, so many people are! i am really excited about you and with a bit of effort to lose more weight, you could be a superstar hunneh.

i think you could have a hugely successful career out of modelling, on the catwalks in afghanistan and beijing. You have the right head and breathing skills to go straight into big projects and walk them catwalks like no1 before you, when we meet again in a couple of weeks, i hope you have lost loads more weight.
i am soooo looking forward to working with such a rare talent such as yourself. i will speak to you soon.

all the best,
alan."

Yes we get it, you were in a nativity play one time. Your not George-****ing-Clooney. Get over yourself.
OWNED.
Hardly... I won't get over myself, I have talked to directors, you haven't...?
As I've said, because we're not interested in acting. You're talking like you're better than everyone else because you've talked to a director?
No I am trying to tell people that are screaming 'FAKEE!!!' and going freaky all over the thread, that Directors are very real people and when talking to clients they don't do overly formal e-mails, but obviously I don't get chance to explain anything because you lot are too keen to be right. And can't accept I am opening possibilities that might prove you wrong. I am not saying you are wrong, but I am not also saying that you are right.
Just take a chill pill mate.
