The more the better, right?β

Hereβs a quick hint:β
β
Clips β― a reelβ
β
Clips are not the solution and πππ₯π§πππ‘ππ¬, more is not better. β
β
Think of this way:β
β
We have THOUSANDS of submissions to go through and it can feel overwhelming. β
β
Sure, weβre used to it (and certainly not complaining), but when weβre faced with a long list of clips, it can feel even more overwhelming. β
β
We donβt know what to click and where to click first. β
β
Yes, you can do a good job of thoroughly labeling your clips to give us a better sense of what weβre about to watch, BUT sometimes we donβt exactly know what βromantic leadβ means until we watch it. β
β
And if we click on the wrong thing, well, itβs 50/50 whether weβll click on something else. β
β
“But everyone says I need separate clips?!?”β
β
Yes, a short specific clip is helpful for a SPECIFIC type of role. But anything more than that?β

β
If you can, best to have fully constructed reels (separated only by genre: drama and comedy) along with some clips. β
β
But keep it tight!β

β
Keep it to the best of the best and donβt give us a single moment to second guess bringing you in. β
