Did you know that, right this second, an agent, manager, or casting director could be looking you up online?
Is your website up to date? Do you have a website? Have you tweeted since 2014? Is your Instagram feed full of cat photos?
I kid…but not really. Today, it is so important that your online presence be streamlined, sharp, and up to date. Just as you research directors, writers, and producers when you are considering a project, people are researching you.
Here are seven ways that you can make your online presence more impressive:
1. Have a simple, professional website. Your website should be easy to find and easy to navigate. Ideally, the domain name should be your name. If you don’t yet have a website, stop everything you are doing and go purchase/reserve your domain name—yourfirstnameyourlastname.com—immediately.
On your homepage should be your demo reel. Right at the top, right in the center. You should then have pages for your (short) bio, your résumé, your headshots, any other footage samples that best showcase your talent, and your contact info/your agent’s contact info.
No need for music, glitz, or a bunch
