You can also ask as well if you really want to do everything you can to get the gig. But sometimes an overeager actor can be a turnoff, working against you. There's a disconnect actors have to have. To seem like they can care less for a job, and then audition well enough for them to want you back. Even though you really, really, REALLY want the job. =)

...ask for them. They may not know what they want so they will probably want both. But as you probably already well know, it is a waste as most headshots are trashed right after the principle actors are cast. What a shame. And very expensive. My headshots after lithograph printing costs and the photographer's fee run about a buck a piece. I printed 500 lithographs and adding in the fees for the shoot and the prints or index cards or any other need, you can see why you should make the choice.

Well, it has been in my experience that 2 headshots mean two of the same. But usually when they want two, I have seen it to be independent films or student projects. All fine and dandy for reels, but quite unusual for casting on a larger scale. These days electronic casting is the way to go. You are assigned a "Casting Frontier" ID number and it sticks with you for electronic castings.
If you should decide to bring 2 different ones, you might as well bring 2 of each as they will probably ask..

When they ask you to bring 2 headshots.. Is it two of the same of different photos?

Experience. Living it and learning along the way.

My apologies. I have wandering eyes. But I've moved now so there isn't that camera angle available anymore. Thanks for taking the time to let me know so I can make my videos better.

Well, you need to sort that out because it's very disconcerting to watch.

Hahaha. I keep looking to upper camera right because there is my computer screen and I have notes I'm using to prompt myself from. |
