The Best StuntListing Habits
Are you a stunt performer looking to get noticed by coordinators? Do you also want to get everything you can out of your Premium StuntListing membership? Here are some of the best habits I've seen after reviewing thousands of profiles on StuntListing.
Complete Your Profile (...and regularly update it, too!)
For some, your StuntListing profile will be your first impression to a coordinator. An incomplete profile with only one headshot doesn't showcase you in the best light. Make sure your profile is complete, then keep it fresh by constantly updating your headshots and list of actors you've doubled. By taking just a few minutes to update your profile each month, you'll help coordinators find (and hire!) you with ease.
Add All Your Skills...Completely
Coordinators only know what you tell them so don't make them assume your skillset. Add an inclusive list of your abilities along with a brief description and rating for each. Skills aren't visible without a description so don't skip that step; give the coordinator the complete picture by rating your skill. Think of all it as your "elevator pitch". Don't over-exaggerate your skills, but own your talents and experience. If you have a Premium membership, you can add skills reels for each ability. These are perfect proof that you can walk the walk.
Use the Rate Calculator
The StuntListing Rate Calculator is an essential tool for calculating your earnings for each job. Use it every time you work, and take a screenshot of your rate for safekeeping. By doing this, you'll be able to ensure that you get paid every cent you're owed.
Attend StuntListing's Virtual Events
StuntListing Plus members gain free access to their virtual Coordinator Office Hours, along with discounted entry to some of their other virtual events. These events are not only great to learn more about the industry, but it's also a great way to get your face (on a screen) in front of many different coordinators in a low-stakes environment.
Upgrade to Premium
If you're serious about your stunt career, upgrading to a Premium membership level just makes dollars...I mean cents (get it?). Premium members get access to the best StuntListing has to offer, including increased visibility to coordinators and the ability to add unlimited skill reels and headshots to your profile. Best of all, you'll be able to calculate your rates with the Rate Calculator. (Run the numbers - just one 8-hour work day can pay for eight years of a Plus membership.) Make the smart choice and upgrade to Premium today!
By having a complete profile and upgrading to Premium, you'll stand out from the crowd and get more work as a stunt performer. If you have any questions, feel free to email them at StuntListing@gmail.com. Soon enough, success will find you...and send you an availability check.
