    Twins On the Site


     I have twins, but they're not identical (boy and girl).  Should I have more than one profile?  What are the benefits of having two profiles?  Does anyone have suggestions for 'marketing' the kids as individuals and as twins?

    Yes . . .you should have two separate profiles for your sibling children if you want them to be considered individually for work and for representation.

    Unfortunatly your fraternal twin children don't qualify as twins for marketing purposes in entertainment.  Twins are in demand when they can double each other for scenes, therefore extending the work day for producers.

    For example, infants in CA are only allowed 20 minutes of work time within one two hour window (9:30 am -11:30 am or 2:30 pm - 4:30 pm).   Twins would allow producers to achieve 40 minutes of actual work time without breaking any CA labor laws.

    Good Luck!

    I have my "identical" twins on one profile here.   I do have separate headshots and resumes as well as a combined headshot (with both girls) and combined resume.  In their separate resumes I have identical twin under their name with the twins name.  Like Toni said, the twin advantage in the biz is for identicals.  I would put fraternals on here separately and mention they have a fraternal twin.  I'd say the advantage of having separate profiles is that they would be considered for different parts since they are different sexes.
