Question: The right facial features for acting!?
I was watching a BBC documentary where I saw that although talent is very important in being a successful actress that your facial features were also important!. Actress's need a face that will stand out or looks a certain way!.Not all actress's are natural beautys but their facial features are right!. Is their is a facial recognition online site that could analyze photographs!.!. like myheritage!.com and face analyze!.com

ThanksWww@QuestionHome@Com

Acting is,!.!.!.!.acting, it comes from within us, so there is no right or wrong face if you want to act!.
However, if you are talking about film, thats a different thing, many good looking people, may not be photogenic, they may be good looking in person, but it takes a different kind of good looking face to suit huge screens or look "good" close up!. Having a good film face will help your career in some ways,!.!.!.many people undergo screentests, usually around the same time as auditioning before attaining a job, to see if they have a good,or the "right" film look!. Many people go against this "rule" however as many looks are needed in the film business!. I wouldnt worry about it too much!.

If you really want to test yourself,!.!.!.just audition, or film yourself!. Filming yourself might not be the best though, as on proffesional shoots, the actors have make up, and perfect lighting on their side!. Models also normally have a favoured side of their face, because faces arent 100% symmetrical!.
Hope that helps to some degreeWww@QuestionHome@Com

Well, what tey mean is a clean face!. NO pimples no lines under your eyes, white teeth no mustaches on ladies no mono eye brows unless really young and you know that things!. If you want to change your picture to make it look right!? Then go to a modeling thing!. Get a modeling photographs and if it is for auditioning like you give them pics of you so they can see what you look like or what they can change you into to look like the character in the movie or TV show they are auditioning for!.
I didn't really understand your question but i hope this helps! :)
P!.S If you do go to a modeling thing to get modeling is ask them for a portfolio book like to show the people holding the auditions when going to auditioning!. They know what you mean :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
