"I have found through my years as an actor that I have a strong flair for the set and wardrobe design. I enjoy incorporating those skills into the projects that I take on. It never hurts to bring more to the table than your director expects."
Unique skills could be anything from funny voices to acting techniques that make your style unique. You may have a character that you made up that shows your creativity and comedic skill. If you can cry on cue, that's a skill!
Think about some of the skills you have perfected that you can act out on the spot upon request. If you're not sure, list off some examples to jog your memory. Reflect on some of your past roles and productions you did in the past.
"Yes, I sure do! I have a great British accent and am also able to cry on cue. How could those two skills be used in the same scene? I don't know, but I am ready!"
