SOUND FAMILIAR?
In this industry, opportunities don’t wait. Neither should your EPK
You’ve trained hard, you’ve built your craft, and you know you’re ready for the next opportunity. But when it comes to actually packaging and presenting yourself? That’s where things start to feel a bit scattered.
Maybe your showreel is hosted somewhere you’re not even sure is still live. Maybe your headshots folder has six different versions, and you’re not sure which one to send. Maybe your CV was last updated before a job you’re really proud of.
You’re not behind. You’re just missing a clear system and that’s exactly what this checklist is here to give you.
Because when you start seeing and presenting yourself as the creative business you already are, everything starts to shift.
That’s exactly what this checklist is here to help you with.
WHAT’S INSIDE?
Introducing the EPK Essentials Checklist
This is a free, practical checklist designed specifically for performers and creative professionals in the entertainment industry. It walks you through every element of a strong EPK, from your CV and headshots to your showreel, specialist documentation and filing system, so you always know exactly what you have, what you’re missing, and what to send.
1
Your CV
What to include, what to leave out, and why the way you name and send your file matters more than most people realise. A few small details here make a big difference to how professional you come across.
2
Your Headshots and Bodyshots
The standards that separate professional from passable, including file naming, image quality and the specific shots that showcase your skill set most effectively.
3
Your Showreel
How to host it, how to name it, and the one mistake that almost everyone makes when sending video. Hint: if you’re sending it as an attachment, this one is for you.
4
Your Specialist Materials
PLI certificates, PAT test certificates, riders, tech specs, price lists and more, all filed somewhere you can actually find them and share them quickly when it counts.
5
Your EPK Filing System
How to keep everything in one shareable, consistently updated space so you’re always ready when an opportunity lands, without the last-minute scramble to find the right version of the right file.
6
The Little Extras
A bio that actually sounds like you, and a templated casting email you can adapt and send with confidence. Small additions that quietly set you apart.

WHY THIS MATTERS
Because when your EPK is working properly, everything shifts.
You stop second-guessing what to send and start showing up with the kind of confidence that actually opens doors. Bookers notice. Casting directors take you seriously. And you stop feeling like you’re scrambling to catch up every time an opportunity lands.
You’ve trained hard, you’ve built your craft and you know you’re ready for the next opportunity. This checklist gives you the framework to make sure the world can see that too, built specifically for the way this industry works.
