I need help choosing a Commercial and Legit shot

[MPavano]

They're a bit mixed, but im sure you'll know which are which. I need help as to which two to choose and if i should have my glasses off in any. Also, don't worry about the glare or editing because they haven't had anything done yet.

Theres also some modeling ones in there, but just ignore them.

Thanks!

First, I'd lose ALL the ones with the glasses. They just look like 'tear sheets' to me. Lose 'em.

Second...which guy are YOU? Are you the still slightly awkward, guy next door in 'legit 2' or the guy with the slicked back hair who looks like he has a dark side, the guy 'legit 2's parents told him to stay away from? Not that you can't play both, but don't confuse me with two totally different looks.

If I meet you in person, which guy is going to walk into the room? Which is closer to your real personality? As far as shots go, I really like the ones with the slicked back hair. They look more mature and as photos are, to me, more interesting. But if you can't BE 'that guy', don't use the photo.

'Commercial 4' is actually not bad for a generic, cover the board shot, but honestly I really don't like the red and white shirt.


7841_2 is a strong shot and if you can really pull that look of in person and in a reading, I'd certainly have that shot in your arsenal.

I'm guessing you've pulled these shots a favorites from a batch of proofs.

Do you have some more shots in one of the other shirts or another shirt, sans glasses?
The 'legit 2' shot is not bad...I just really don't like the choice of shirts for a main headshot.

See the kind of reasons actors DON'T get selected for an audition....Ha!
