AIA Video Clip Press release
Actors In Action talent agency makes use of new and innovative marketing tool Portland, OR -- December 14, 2006 --
Have you ever wondered what it would look like to bring a headshot to life? Local talent agent and creator of Actors In Action talent agency, Damon Jones, has effectively done this. For the past couple weeks Damon has been taking full advantage of his studio space, hard at work creating 15-20 second video clips that portray a non-acting, realistic look at what kind of people the agency has to offer.
Damon, with a DVD camera and simple equipment is providing casting directors and production companies with an easy and downloadable way to view his talent in a most "natural," "believable," and "real" moment. Putting his actors at ease Damon has had them talk about anything and everything that they feel lets you get to know them as a person. Topics have ranged anywhere from unique philosophies and interesting events that have occurred in their lives, to younger talent singing the Itsy Bitsy Spider.
Not only does this innovative marketing tool benefit the actor, by letting them portray themselves in a natural situation, it also benefits the client. A lot of times a client will see a person that ends up looking nothing like their headshot. These videos prevent any surprises while saving time in the casting process. Very few agencies, if any use this video library method to market their talent, which puts Actors In Action ahead of the game.
Actors In Action's talent agent, Damon Jones has provided us with an efficient and innovative way to portray a realistic look at what kind of people his agency has to offer, benefiting both the talent as well as the client. He has effectively managed to provide us with the opportunity to see a headshot brought to life.
