Thanks Tim – had a blast photographing you around Austin –

Children especially are not expected to have a lot of experience, so don’t be especially concerned if the biography is light on and try to hide the fact.
Whereas it’s optional for adults, you should include your child’s date of birth. Likewise, also include their MEAA number if they have one.
Often a child’s measurements are important in casting, so be sure to include them.
You may include drama classes and plays at school.
It’s OK if you include any semi-related experience – such as modelling, public speaking and filmmaking.
Often skills are of particular relevance when it comes to casting children, so mention all of your child’s skills.
If you are writing the biography for your child, involve them in the process.
As children grow very quickly, you’ll need to update their measurements regularly.
Use your contact phone number even if your child has their own phone.
If your child is a complete beginner you can dispense with the biography, but if you do, include all relevant information normally in the biography (such as measurements) in the cover letters.
