Find out about a cast call by checking out industry magazines
or local film schools. Meet filmmakers in your area and
cultivate relationships. Your next cast call may be held
over dinner or lunch. Sometimes certain parts are cast by
someone making a call to an actor they know because they
want them for the project, but most of us can't count on
this. An actor that has a film to screen does have an advantage,
though. This is your reel. Bring a DVD with a clip to your
next cast call.
When a director sets out to cast a project, they don't want to have to call all over the city to find the talent they need. That's what the casting director is for. Usually, she makes a call to an agent or agency, letting them know the type of project they need to cast, and then the agent makes the call to you. Things have changed now, and many times no call is necessary at all, and they are able to bring in everyone they need to cast an entire project by communicating over the Internet!
