We have a photo shoot. I feel like usually we cast models but I’m curious if actors (or those with good acting experience) would be better. The scenes are somewhat story driven, a little funny and stupid, but i feel like the fine control actors have over emotions would make them better suited for the overall work. Clients just want hot and sexy.

But why male models?

Nah. If it’s photos a model has the control over their bodies you need.

If it’s acting, get actors.

This. It’s a completely different skill set.
Models are much better at nailing the still shot. Do not hire actors for a non acting job.

A producer can explain this better than I can, but the reason you’re using models is because they cost way less

Just use a model-actor (we used to call them slashies when I lived in LA a million years ago, is that still the nickname?)

Yeah you need models with range or actors that look good.

Editorial models are not the answer

UPDATE (RE: SoCal Assistant Controller Interview)

So after two weeks of waiting (and giving up on the idea of getting the job really), the recruiter got back to me.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.

Not sure if Im hired or not, but are there any questions about the job, comp (cont.)
