ENDA Episode 68 → The time when ENDA shares how important is the selection of a plate (Part 3)
By selecting plates that could fit seamlessly into a film or high-quality TV show, you’re essentially saying, “Hey, I can tackle the kind of shots you handle.”
In the last post, we talked about the quality of a plate and why it’s crucial to choose a shot that matches professional standards. Today, let’s explore a second factor that often gets overlooked: appealing to the people who might hire you.

But here’s the catch: it’s not just about picking the right plate, you also need to present it properly. And how do we do that?
Well… that’s for another episode.
The journey continues…
