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

  • 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.

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.
