Tarhunt, I think you need also to recognize that the student actors who populate this list (well, the student actors and their parents, in many cases) are not yet quite at the level of professionalism at which they would easily maintain two or three different resumes and so on. As someone said way upthread (KatMt, it might’ve been you!:)) it is highly doubtful that most high school seniors who are getting their first headshot for college auditions and creating resumes for that purpose would want to have 100 or so headshots with resumes printed, because their resumes will (we hope) continue to change and change quickly … in fact, the resumes likely will change more quickly than will the way they look (headshot). So for now and for most kids, the idea of affixing their resumes on the back of their headshots in some fashion (staples being the most obvious), at least for now, seems like a good, practical solution. Also, it might have been the word “antedeluvian” that stuck in some people’s craws. ;)
