Hi, I am about to send in my daughter's headshot for modeling/acting & I would like to know some things that I should include. I know hobbies, special skills, & sports are good. But if you could give me more info to get my daughter IN THERE! I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE AN OUTLINE WHERE I COULD FILL IN THE BLANKS! I would appreciate it. Thanks!

Remember your cover letter and your resume are two different things. A cover letter should be no longer than a paragraph long. A casting director/agent doesn't have time to read over long cover letters. They go straight to the resume and headshot. Just say, "My daughter, Sophie, is very interested in persuing a modeling and acting career. She is eight years old, has taken several acting classes, and is ready to take it to the next level. After reviewing your website, I think she'd be a great fit for your agency. I've enclosed Sophie's recent headshot and resume. We look forward to hearing from you." (except fill in my details with ones that apply to your daughter)
On your resume you use this format using nice neat columns with name of project, role, and production co.

Model Cover Letter Sample

You did not indicate the city where you live. In NYC we don't send cover letters to agents, we mail photo-postcards. Agents contact those he or she wants to meet and audition. We do not send cover letters. Mail a headshot and resume. With a "note," not letter, that includes a headshot and resume and say: Please keep my daughter in mind for an interview. That's all you need. Nothing fancy. I worked for two talent agencies so I've seen it all and know what works and doesnt' work. Make sure you send your information ONLY to agents that represent CHILDREN! Most only represent adults.
