Answer 1

wtf?

no thats not even a headshot, and you look weird.

Answer 2

I would have to say NO. Get a nice shot of you smiling and try to look professional : no crazy make-up, wear something descent, and comb your hair.

Don't try to look s**y either. Look professional.

Answer 3

No.  It's too close, the composition is weird, it doesn't show your entire face, you have too much makeup on.  

Answer 4

get professional headshots done if you are SERIOUS about acting and not one of those wannabes. casting directors mainly look at professional headshots because it shows that you are serious and not just wanting to become a famous disney star.

Answer 5

No.  We cannot see your face or head clearly and the red you are wearing makes your face look blotchy (I'm being honest here).  Never wear red in front of a camera unless you have a pro wielding it. Lose the eye makeup short of some brown pencil under the eye.

If you are going to use a snapshot then you have to make it look good. Here is what I suggest: go outside to a park (natural light), sit on the ground and have your camera person take the shot from above you. Use a stool or stair or chair. Trust me, this pose works almost every time.

For other ideas I suggest you look at the portraits that Chris Ablett has done. Chris did my press photos - simplicity is key.

Answer 6

in my opinion this isnot really sutible

you need to have your hair off your face and it needs to be a face on head and shoulders shot

you are also wearing too much make up

agency pictures are  usually black and white

however, once you get accepted to an agency they should arrange for you to have proffesional photos taken for casting

i hope i have been a help
