Stunt Performer FAQ

Posted: 05 Jan, 2017

If you really, really want it, and you're willing to put in the work,
  and you're willing to put in the time, then you WILL MAKE it as a
  
stunt performer.

1. You need to have a never-ending zest for new skills, you need to train 
consistently, and you need to network constantly.   

2. You need to already have some sort of sports background,  
such as martial arts, 
motorcycle riding, car racing, climbing,
 gymnastics or trampoline/tumbling, but this 
is not absolute.

3. You need to have an 8 X 10 headshot (done by a professional), and a good 
resume stating your skills, sports, and accomplishments. You will be handing this 
out to 
stunt coordinators, other stunt performers, and anybody else who might 
help you along.

4. It's a good idea to put together a 
Stunt Demo Video (a short video showing off 
your particular skills) and hand that out to 
stunt coordinators, also. Some stunt 
coordinators like these, and some don't - you'll get to know who likes what as you 
start to network.
