A Critique of An Acting Resume: Dear
Mitchell, Your
choice of a “Specialty” format for your resume was wise and
quite appropriate. The finished document can be sent to prospective
employers or be used as promotional pieces as you begin to build your
own clientele and martial arts studio. Per your email request sent to ResumeEdge, I searched the Internet for appropriate martial arts photographs as a background for your resume, and used #2 of 5 - the photo you liked best.

Acting Resume Critique: I
began your resume by “floating” the text over the picture
and used the Pepita MT font for your name. The bold strokes quickly
draw attention to your name and the tag directly beneath it -
“Martial Artist.” Because
you’ll also be using this resume as a promotional piece, I
immediately listed your specialties - “Tai Chi, Kung Fu,
Chi-Kung, Jiu-Jitsu, and Karate.” At a glance, a client or an
employer can see what you have to offer. In
the brief paragraph that follows, I emphasized your qualifications.
Unlike an Objective that states what you want, a Qualifications Summary
explains what you have to offer. There’s an important difference
in placing your clients’ or a future employer’s needs above
your own. Acting Resume Critique: In
this paragraph, I described you as an “Award-winning Instructor /
Black Belt honored as a Grandmaster and member in the International
Grandmaster Committee.” I then wrote of your background studying
with Grandmaster Ji Han Jae and your other achievements. I ended this
section by listing your linguistic capabilities. Because your students
will come from many different areas and cultures, your fluency in
English, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Korean, and French is a strong
selling point. In
the middle of the resume, I listed your impressive championships and
your theatrical appearances. In this manner, you can distribute the
resume to martial arts schools, clients, and also film studios. Acting Resume Critique: I ended the resume with your contact information. You’ll notice I placed your phone number first and in a much larger type than your email or physical address. The
reason for this is that clients or employers will generally call you
first, email you second, and rarely, if ever, contact you through the
mail. By increasing the font size of your phone number, I’ve made
that data easily readable and readily accessible to both clients and
employers. All
decisions to modify data were in keeping with the guidelines and
standards set forth by the Professional Association of Resume Writers. With
this resume / marketing piece, you now have a powerful tool
that’s well organized and filled with pertinent data, while also
being aesthetically pleasing. It
was a pleasure serving you, Mitchell. Free Online Resume Builder Tool: Use this tool to build a high quality resume in about ten minutes.
