Robin Gentile is a leading headshot photographer in New York and has been a personal manager for a number of years. This experience, combined with her time as a working actress, has given her a unique insight into how the casting business works, and an understanding of the importance of every headshot. In this workshop she will convey her knowledge of what casting directors are looking for in a headshot, and talk about “the business” side of show business. Topics covered include: Headshots for film, television, theater, and commercials; styles of headshots; proper format for headshot mailings; differences between agents and managers; choices for clothing, make-up, location; and auditioning for agents vs. casting directors. Ms. Gentile’s clients’ work has included: Rent, NYPD Blue, The Blue Man Group, Go, Dawson’s Creek, and Sex & The City.
