Default Resume - just starting out - "little white lies"

Hi,

Since I'm just starting out, is it okay to post some information on a resume that are theoretically speaking "little white lies" to help fill out the resume to go along with some information that are actually factual or accurate ?

My acting teacher gave me this advice a while ago.

Anyone else did the same thing when they first started out or when they first started making their acting / modeling resume ?

Please advise. I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance !

I guess it depends on how little these lies are, give us an example =)

PS We know you didn't play the Joker in the Dark Knight, so don't you dare try putting that on your resume! :P

Dude, never lie. It always gets to you. I was raised differently, I haven't lied for about five years, and when I say this, people laugh. Anyways, if you lie, you might be cast for that lie, and when the time to prove it comes, people will notice.

Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive.
