Start with your professional name, current headshots, a strong reel or selected clips, résumé and credits, representation or contact details, a short biography, and links to trusted professional profiles.

CONTACTCASTING-READY ROUTE
Put the essential material in reach.
Start with the work a visitor needs to see, then make credits, representation, and contact details easy to find. The layout should guide attention without getting in the way.
Explore actor websitesYour professional name and current look
Your name should be one of the first things a visitor sees. Pair it with a current primary headshot that reflects how you look now. Do not make people search a gallery to figure out who the site belongs to.
A small set of carefully chosen images is usually more useful than a large unedited gallery. Every image should have a reason to be there.
A reel or selected performance clips
Put your strongest video near the top of the experience and make sure it plays cleanly on a phone. If you have separate reels for different kinds of work, label them clearly instead of presenting a wall of unlabeled videos.
The visitor should know what they are about to watch and should not need to create an account or download a file first.
Résumé, credits, and skills
Keep a readable résumé available in the page and offer a PDF download when useful. Selected credits can appear directly on the site, but the full list should remain organized and current.
Special skills and union status belong where they can be understood quickly. Avoid squeezing important information into a tiny image of a résumé.
Representation and contact details
If you have an agent or manager, make the correct professional contact easy to find. If you handle inquiries directly, use a professional email address or form. Do not publish your home address or personal information that does not need to be public.
A short biography with a point of view
A short biography can add personality and context. It does not need to repeat every credit from your résumé. Help the reader understand the kind of work you do, where you are based, and what is useful to know about you as a performer.
The complete actor website checklist
Before launch, check the site on a phone and ask someone unfamiliar with your work to find your reel and contact route. If either task takes too long, simplify.
- Professional name and current primary headshot
- Featured reel or clearly labeled clips
- Readable résumé and selected credits
- Representation and contact information
- Short biography and useful skills
- Links to relevant professional profiles
- A domain you control
- A clear plan for future updates

Build the essentials before adding more.
The best actor website feels complete without feeling crowded. Build around the questions a visitor actually has: Who are you? What do you look like now? Can I watch your work? What have you done? How do I contact the right person?
