Answer 1

Put your age down, and take out the class skits. It's something good for you but really things that everyone does, so doesn't make a huge impression on casting directors.

One minor thing, should say "fluent" not "flaunt" Romanian.

Also take out hobbies, they won't interest directors.

Answer 2

you need to have your age range.. (so if your 13 it would be 12-14, it's 1+ your age and 1- your age)

here's a basic outline of how a beginners resume should look like.

Here is a basic outline of a resume:

(center) NAME.

(on the right) Hight

Hair color

eye color

age range. (1+ 1- ex. if you 14 your age range is 13-15)

(on the left)

who your represented by

(acting agency, there address and phone number,

if your not represented by anyone your address, phone

number and e-mail) YOUR e-mail even if your represented by someone.

BELOW THAT.

experience, where, year.

ex. Play(name the play and what character you played).... Your school..... 2006-2008

Education, where, year.

ex. Acting Classes..... Where you did them... year

bottom center..

talent/skill.

name about 6 things your good at, acting, singing, dancing, etc.

you shouldn't have sports and hobbies, just talent/skill and there should only be about 6 things you AMAZING at.

Answer 3

hey, one way to improve it is to take out hanging out with friends and scrap booking. directors are NOT interested in those things. also for photography you should either put professional photography or take it out, ur choice. other wise, its pretty good!!!

Answer 4

Under your special skills you need to list everything that could possibly be of use. Example: able to drive a car with a standard transmission, ride a horse, etc etc. Talents/abilities that aren't easy to fake. (it's hard to pretend you;re comfortable on a horse, for example, if the first time you've ever been within 6 feet of one is the day of the shoot) Lose the sports and hobbies, class skits, include your age range, and triple check your spelling. nothing is more off-putting in a resume than misspelled words.

Answer 5

Good begining..but let's improve it.

You must list your age

Remove  the acting and model objectives.

Remove the class skit- only list plays and musicals...if we listed every skit we were in most resumes would be pages long!

List the name of the theatre or school where you performed High School Musical.

List the school where you are taking  your drama class.

Under special skills list what kind of singing and dancing (if it just everyday singing and dancing without any training or specialized like tap or ballet then leave that off) Add 3 of the sports to this list.

Do not list any hobbies. Casting directors and agents don't care about that.

Good luck!
