When he was on trial for the death of his wife, he seemed more preoccupied with the state of his appearance than by the loss of Farah. He showed little remorse in his interview with our boat, Bryanna, and possesses many qualities of a narcissistic psychopath.

Travel available for talent from Boston or New York.

She has a troubled past, with a history of alleged sexual abuse and a tumultuous upbringing, raised in one of the poorest neighborhoods in New York. She had worked for a few years as a high-earning Wall Street business-type before transitioning into sex work. She is currently up for parole in the state of New York and is preparing to serve time in New Jersey.

Travel Available for Talent based in New York or Boston.

  • For OTHER EXTRAS ROLES (rate $153/ day): Seeking men and women ages 18-60 of all ethnicities.  I am matching cast members to real people, and due to privacy and confidentiality, can not release the names or photos at this time.  I am also looking for a few kids ages 6 and older.

Some of these reenactments contain scenes of violence.  If that’s not something you’re comfortable with, this is not your show!  (NO scenes of intimacy or sexual nature.)

The rate for the Featured Talent in reenactments is $225/ day.

The rate for background talent is $153/ day.  (There are only a few extras on any given day.)

Are you an aspiring actor looking for your big break or a seasoned professional seeking your next role? Navigating the world of casting calls can be a thrilling yet challenging journey. Understanding where to find these opportunities and how to leverage popular filming locations can significantly enhance your chances of landing that dream role.

What are Casting Calls?

Casting calls are auditions organized by casting directors to find suitable actors for various roles in film, television, theater, and commercials. These are your gateway to the screen and stage, providing a platform to showcase your acting skills to key decision-makers in the industry.

Popular Filming Locations and Their Impact

Several cities around the world are renowned for being film-making hubs, each offering unique opportunities for actors:

1. Hollywood, Los Angeles: The heart of the film industry, Hollywood is synonymous with cinema and television. Here, casting calls are plentiful, ranging from blockbuster movies to independent films and everything in between.

2. New York City: Known for both its theater scene and film productions, NYC is a vibrant hub for casting calls, especially for Broadway shows and live performances.

3. Atlanta, Georgia: With its favorable tax incentives, Atlanta has become a hotspot for film and TV productions, resulting in a surge of casting calls for actors in recent years.

4. Vancouver, Canada: Often referred to as “Hollywood North,” Vancouver is a top destination for filming due to its diverse landscapes and favorable filming conditions, leading to many opportunities for actors.

5. London, UK: A significant center for film and theatre, London offers numerous casting calls for everything from feature films to West End productions.

Tips for Navigating Casting Calls

  • Stay Informed: Regularly check specialized websites like Project Casting, where you can find daily updates on casting calls in various cities. Utilizing these platforms can help you stay ahead of the competition by applying early to newly posted opportunities.
  • Prepare Thoroughly: Always arrive at auditions prepared. This means having your lines memorized, understanding the character you are auditioning for, and being ready to take direction or feedback on the spot.
  • Network: The film industry is as much about talent as it is about connections. Attend industry events, workshops, and festivals in these popular locations to connect with casting directors, filmmakers, and other actors.
  • Professional Portfolio: Maintain an updated portfolio with your headshots, resume, and reel. An impressive portfolio can make a significant difference in how casting directors view your professionalism and suitability for a role.

How do I find a legit casting call?

To find legitimate casting calls, start by using reputable platforms like Project Casting, which vets postings to ensure authenticity. Always research the casting company or director associated with the call. Legitimate opportunities typically don’t require payment to audition, and any contact should come from professional email addresses rather than personal accounts.

Can you audition without an agent?

Yes, you can audition without an agent. Many open casting calls and online platforms allow individual actors to submit directly for roles. While having an agent can provide access to more exclusive opportunities and handle negotiations, many new actors start their careers by attending open calls or self-submitting for roles online.

What is the difference between a casting call and an audition?

A casting call is a notice put out by producers or casting directors seeking potential actors for roles, inviting them to apply or present themselves. An audition is the process where actors perform a specific piece, like a monologue or a script, in front of the casting team after responding to a casting call. Essentially, the casting call is the request, and the audition is the response.

What is the best free casting call website?

Generally, you should not pay to attend casting calls. Legitimate casting calls and auditions do not require payment from actors. If a casting call asks for money to audition or to secure a role, it is likely a scam. The standard practice is that any fees associated with the casting process are covered by the production.
