Are you aware casting and creatives are going to YouTube, Facebook, and other social networks to research you?
That photo of you on vacation in your bathing suit? It shows your physique. All your photos out and about with friends? They show how you might act in company housing. All the photos backstage or on set? They show that you’re a working actor.

What you don’t want to do is separate your personal life from your professional career. Many actors try to do this with two accounts on the same platform. What ends up happening is that you divide your fan base and double your work load!
