Episodic season in LA is a time where all the new television shows and the past or ongoing TV series film upcoming episodes which will begin airing soon. It is a very busy time in Hollywood and a great time to get some fantastic auditions. Episodic season is from August to November.
Child actors can audition a lot during episodic season or things can be dry. But if it's dry you know one thing...you need to see if you have all the right tools in place. The very first thing that you need to ensure you have in place is a current acting headshot. You will need a printed 8x10 headshot and your kids should have current headshots posted to their actors online profiles.
Why is it so important to update your kids headshot
 |
| Kids headshot for tv roles. |
during episodic season? Because your kids headshot is the first thing a casting director will see when they receive submissions from the talent agent. Casting directors will see approx 50 kids headshots in thumbnail sizes on each page, as they scroll thru hundreds of child actors who have been submitted for the role. You want them to stop on your kid's headshot and click it for further information. At that point they may look at additional headshots that your child has posted. They may also look at the resume, an actors reel, or notes from the agent. So your children's headshot is not the only thing that a casting director will see, but it is the FIRST thing they will see.
Make sure to update your kids headshots often!
