Conference and Q&A : Get the info you need to start your journey

Seeing a lot of actors' submissions for roles, we know that some might be a little lost in terms of what is asked of them. We are not all fortunate enough to go to drama schools, and even then, sometimes, these information are not shared.

We see a lot of actors spending their money on things they don’t need, or on headshots that end up not being industry standard.
Actors' time and money are valuable, and should not be taken advantage of. We already work in a competitive and unstable industry, having to juggle between part-time jobs and auditions, without having to get scammed on top of that.

What is a proper headshot?
Where to find a good photographer?
How long should my showreel be?
What should I include in it?
How to film a self-tape?
Where can I find casting calls?
Shall I contact casting directors?

We have gathered all the information you need to start on the right foot.

There are two format:
1/ At PRSC, Bristol, in person, where after the talk and the Q&A I will give you feedback on your materials (£15) LIMITED SPACES
2/ Online, with just the talk and Q&A (£8)

Please note : if you cannot afford a ticket, please get in touch at hello@bluemetaphorstudio.com, we will do our best to not leave anyone behind for lack of means.

ABOUT US
Blue Metaphor Ltd was founded by actor, writer, director and producer Sheherazade Bodin, whose aim is to help filmmakers, writers and any creative voices develop their projects portraying social and/or cultural matters. We want to help the world become a better place, one film at a time, and support all creatives, in an inclusive way.
At Blue Metaphor, we love noisy voices, speaking the truth loud and clear. We want to get new perspectives on what a film should be, should look like and should say. We promote diversity and inclusivity, as we believe no one should be silenced.
We thrive when unheard or misunderstood voices finally share their stories to create a greater impact!
