Do you think this head shot could be used for both theatrical and commercial work? Yes? No? Please state your reason.

This headshot can "crossover" for both uses.

However, many agents/casting directors want to see teeth in commerical shots. On occasion, actors have bad teeth, which precludes them from using broad, toothy grins.

In any case, I place more emphasis on an actor's energy level, as opposed to displaying their "white and pearlies" just to demonstrate
their dental work. But if you have great teeth, it could certainly be a benefit.

"Whatever works."

It's a nice shot! You come across as warm, with the ability to make contact.

As a director, I would notice this shot.

Good luck!
