I have a question for Secret Agent Man, as well as for anyone else who'd like to contribute.
A lead role in a music video of a well-known artist, - would it be looked upon as a good credit? Or is it nothing of an interest for an agent due to the nature of a music video genre?
Also, what is the appropriate category and proper way to list it on a resume? Thank you!

Listen - every little bit helps so you should definitely list it on your resume, probably under Commercials - unless you've done a lot of them - then you can create a Music Video category.

Will it be taken seriously? That depends on the nature of your role. Does it really highlight you? Does your character have an actual acr in the video? Or are you merely there as background to the band?

I was a sexy club girl in the Lil Jon video "What U Gon Do?" They oiled me up and everything! I think I got extra oil to compensate for my too-long miniskirt. What do you think about that SAM?

Are you the girl in the cage, the stage, or the one with the pink halter dress? That's really awesome!

Nah. Not the cage girl. I just kept looking at her like "A bra??? Really????"

I mostly ended up on the cutting room floor.

Lil Jon's Pimp Cup was really something to see. Roll Eyes

Still awesome. Lil Jon does travel around with that cup. Does he sleep with it? Just kidding. It's cute you put yourself out there like that. You are such a stand up young lady.

oh man, I wish I knew about this before...I just assumed music videos are useless because we couldn't put them on resumes since there's no dialogue.
