Ezra Calloway, Film and Stage Actor

Ezra Calloway is a film and stage actor six years into the work, a resident company member at an Atlanta theatre with seven film credits behind him, sending this resume to casting directors and agencies. Casting reads a performer's resume as a list of credits and the skills a part may call for, so this one puts the agent and the film credits above everything else, keeps the theatre seasons and the training short, and writes a level beside every special skill.

Why this resume works

  • The film credits are written one a line as the title, the part and the production with its director, so the layout sets them as three aligned columns and a casting director can scan the parts without reading the titles.
  • The agent sits on one labelled line under the profile with the agency, a phone number and an email, because casting books through the agent and should never have to hunt for the contact.
  • The theatre years carry the parts by name, Konstantin, Tom, Mercutio, Sebastian and Edmund, and the count of 140 outdoor performances, which says more about stamina than an adjective would.
  • Every special skill carries a written level, Advanced for stage combat and Expert for improvisation, and the languages carry theirs the same way, so a stunt coordinator or a dialect coach reads the fit at a glance.
  • Training lists the conservatory, the Meisner studio, the combat guild and the dialect lab as separate entries with their years, which is the order a casting brief checks them in.
