This page reads like a howto page - see [[Wikipedia:NOT#HOWTO]] for why it needs rewriting to provide just an encyclopedic entry of what a headshot is, not how they should be taken etc. I have also tagged it as needing reliable sources.

Yes this is true and I will rewrite it as soon as I have the time, I have restored the link because it is a very good explanation of headshots by a very well respected headshot specialist.

Revision as of 03:32, 7 October 2008

I am going to write an article about the photographic technique but leave the redirect at the top until complete.

The external link added is probably the most informative and concise description of headshots Myraedison 01:07, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And: the accepted spelling for this is one word "Headshot" rather than Head Shot, their are many types of headshots including Commercial, Theatrical, Corporate and Glamour and multiple sub types IE Theatrical headshots can be of the Legitimate type and the LA type etc.. It's a whole word of photography in it's self Myraedison 01:10, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Information or sales pitch?

Well...This page reads like a scrape from a commercial site now. It is also only marginally accurate. So should I write it myself? Myraedison 16:41, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmmm

This article was written by some one who has very little knowledge (or quite possibly knows nothing) about headshots, Headshot Photography or the entertainment industry.

Respectfully, Ed Everett C.S.A

Why I have edited this article

I have pared this article down because most of the information is superfluous or incorrect and I have added some simple facts. Some one still needs to write this up, I am no expert in this particular area of the field however I know one. Myraedison (talk) 03:55, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I have re worked this and included pertinent information regarding entertainment industry headshots. Some information regarding types of headshots (such as New York Legitimate as opposed to L.A. type headshots)I have left out because there seems to be so much contradictory information on the subject.Myraedison (talk) 02:17, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge the information Heading with Entertainment industry.

Some good info here in both. Needs to be merged. Evedev (talk) 01:01, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, It's a mess

I suggest it be reverted and we start over. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Myraedison (talkcontribs) 02:20, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
