We talk about how actors can take control of their auditions, how they can best prepare for success when production opens up again after the pandemic, and so much more. Join us!
Some of my favorite quotes from our conversation:
- “The best actors act from the inside out.”
- “It is such a joy to make that phone call, and virtually make somebody’s dreams come true.”
- “Multicamera came from theater.”
- “We are looking for someone to walk in and show us how the ole should be done.”
- “I am looking for someone to come in and play the scene exactly the way they would play the scene on set.”
- “The time that you’re in the room is the time to teach us who you are, & who you’re going to be as a professional on stage.”
- “We want them to be amazing. We want them to book the role.”
- “Casting isn’t an adversary; we’re actually part of your team.”
- “I wish actors would watch their tapes back.”
- “We are ultimately hiring human beings to be on our set.”
- “We champion you. Not just for this particular role, but for every role.”
- “Parents should be like the Secret Service on set. They’re there to protect, and disappear.”
- “Acting is one of the very few things you can do from birth to death.”
