Was hanging out with an old friend, Jonathan Schmock, whose got a lot of credits in television. He created the series: 'Sabrina The Teenage Witch'. He's worked as writer/producer on a number of shows such as 'Dharma and Greg'; he has directed; a-n-d was a showrunner along with Jim Vallely ...
Chris Colfer’s casting story is the best of all. At the time of the Glee auditions, he had “the least amount of acting experience”, says the Casting Director. Seen for Artie, Colfer left the audition after inspiring the showrunner, Ryan Murphy, to create a part for him. The young actor got a phone call, that night.

I think the photos are beautiful with talented people trying out for a show, so I put ‘em up to share them with you. It was an open call, held just recently; for The Oscars© Show, The Academy Awards.
I put a notice for this audition on this site, and on my other awards season site, called Oscar Prep.
In this video, Quentin Tarantino talks about casting actors, providing really good insight into the philosophy of ‘the other side’. Finding an actor who will exactly and absolutely fit the part, and why…

Imagine that kind of restraint, as an actress. The measuring, the meting out…of an emotional self as it blossoms at only a pace accurate to the story. Slower, than we in the audience can take. I’ll probably put this on the Actors Audition page later, but it just so boss!

I know that pressure. I know what Carey Mulligan is talking about, when she defines it. When an actor has only two days of work, one day of work, even a week of work; if it’s a small fraction of time of the entire shoot, as an suppoting actor, you feel that extra pressure. You only have a certain amount of time, and it’s ticking, fast…

There’s a big ‘Number 3′.
IT IS THE ACTOR-AGENT RULE…Always true, transparently, between professional actors and the agents that represent them…
When you are working, in acting, you have representation. A talent agent not only negotiates an actor’s salary after they book an acting role; but before that, the agent makes appointments with casting directors for you to audition…for roles that they feel are right for you.That’s where a lot of professional problems, for actors, begin.

Most actors spend most of their career, on the wrong path, that will never lead them into The Industry. Won’t help them get toward an acting career, even though they think it will.
I am talking about actors who get good training somewhere, maybe even college or grad school, or may even have a good coach!
Still they don’t have a clue about what it specifically takes, to become a professional actor.
And there is no other teacher or website that can teach all this, specifically this. Nope.
And I don’t know if I will want to do this again…
