International Autographed Art of Celebrities

Each country has its own celebrities and some of these celebrities can become celebrities in other countries as well, catapulting them to internationally recognized status. These superstars can be even more popular than just the celebrities which have some recognition and popularity in their home countries. Art has been produced about these international superstars on a very large level. People who enjoy fame in both their home countries and all over the world will naturally attract a great deal of attention. Some of this attention is very flattering, in the form of beautiful works of art depicting some of the best qualities of these celebrities. Princess Diana inspired a great deal of breathtaking pieces of art during her time on this world, some pieces of which could be quite valuable collectors items now.

Other pieces of celebrity art depict these celebrities in the midst of the things they are best at doing. Art may be made of David Beckham during a particularly crucial moment of a tournament, showing him saving the game. Portraits have been made of Michael Jordan giving an intense slam-dunk during a basketball game. Actors have had a number of portraits painted of themselves during some of the most exciting moments of their movies. These celebrities have the ability to excite and inspire us and it is only natural that a large portion of our talents would go toward commemorating them and depicting them at their best.

Pieces of celebrity art can be purchased from all over the world. With the Internet at some of its heights, we have the ability to bring commerce to any country on the map. People can sell pieces of international celebrity art to anyone, anywhere in the world. This can help anyone build their art collection into something which not only looks impressive, but can be worth quite a bit of money as well. One simply must always be careful when they purchase things on the Internet from other countries. It could be quite easy for the seller to steal your money because the cost of tracking them down could often end up being more than they actually took from you.

These worldwide celebrities can inspire and delight all of us. From Mother Teresa to Idi Amin, these figures have been able to make us see either the best or the worst about this world and both types will inspire us to be better people and help to change the world. Sometimes, when a celebrity touches us in such a personal way, we go out of our way to get a reminder of what that person has done for us. We can often find that reminder in autographed celebrity art from around the world.

Resumes For Actors and Actresses

Whether you are looking to land your first television role or an accomplished working actor, a polished perfect resume is a must. An actor’s resume is much different that the traditional resume found in the corporate world. Casting directors and agents will often not give a second glance to resumes that are not formatted according to industry standards. Increase your chances for getting called back by following these professional tips for actor and actress resumes.

List your name in large letters in the center top of your resume. Make sure to use the exact professional name you use in movies, television, radio or theater and not necessarily the name on your birth certificate. Underneath your name list the union you are officially affiliated with – Screen Actors Guild (SAG), The American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA), or American Equity Association (AEA). Under the union names you may list a contact phone number and your professional actor website if you have one. Keep it bold and simple. Justified to the left, you will start a number of “sections” were you will list your acting credits, training and additional talents. The sections will include the following genres and the top three can be juggled around in order to fit the project you are applying for Film, Television, Theater, Comedy, Training and Special Skills

Under each of the top four sections you will list out each of your professional acting experiences in the following order across the page in columns: Project Title, Role, Director’s name and title and theater name. Under the “Training” section you can list the school or company where you trained, listing any relevant classes and instructors. The “Special Skills” is your chance to name any skills and unusual talents such as belly dancer, stunt skills, gymnast or whatever you can do that will get you the job. If you have done commercial or modeling work, you can add as an italicized statement that these credits are “available upon request”.

Next, you will want to print up copies of your resume that are sized to attach to the back of your 8 x 10 headshot. Obviously, you’re going to need to keep resumes down to 1 page so that is fits neatly on the photo. Also, avoid listing your height, weight or age; if the casting staff wants these specific details they will ask you during the casting call. An exception to this rule is if you are a model or child actor and know that these personal details will work to your advantage.
