For an actor, your headshot isn't just a photo; it's your calling card. It's the first thing a casting director sees and it's what gets you in the room. In the competitive UK acting industry, you need a headshot that is not only professional but also captures your unique essence and range. It needs to be perfect for Spotlight, Backstage, Mandy, and your agent's roster. The cost and hassle of booking multiple sessions for different 'looks' can be overwhelming. Our AI platform empowers actors by generating an entire portfolio of diverse, studio-quality, and emotionally resonant headshots from a single set of selfies, giving you the tools you need to land the audition.

"I needed to refresh my headshots for pilot season but was on a tight budget. I was skeptical, but the results from this AI were stunning. I got a fantastic range of shots—commercial, theatrical, smiling, serious—all of them looked like me and were high-end. My agent was thrilled."— Chloe-ann Taylor, Stage & Screen Actor

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the quality good enough for Spotlight and professional casting submissions?
Yes, absolutely. All headshots are generated in 4K resolution (4096px), which exceeds the quality requirements for all major UK casting platforms, including Spotlight. The images are crisp, clear, and professional.
Can I get different 'looks' from one session, like a commercial and a theatrical headshot?
Yes, this is one of the biggest advantages. Our AI generates a variety of styles and expressions in your portfolio. You will receive a range of images, some with warmer, commercial smiles and others with more serious, dramatic expressions, giving you options for different roles and submissions.
How much retouching is done? Casting directors hate over-edited photos.
We agree completely. Our AI performs 'photorealistic enhancement,' not 'plastic surgery.' It perfects the lighting, color, and quality but maintains your natural skin texture and unique features. The result looks like a professionally shot and lightly retouched photo, not an artificial or 'airbrushed' image.
