Get the industry intel that helps you land your next audition or production gig

People waiting to be auditioned

This page wasn't meant to be a typical casting call board. Rather, it is more of a listening post for signs and cues that could eventually result in opportunities from the stage, film and/or television studio, and/or indie productions. Most of the sources that contribute to the feeds on this page are production companies, state location services, and the offices of SAG-AFTRA franchised agents (they do issue open casting calls), making it a viable alternative source of information beyond the familiar webcasting sites.

Beyond actors and varied stage performers the listings here will also be helpful to the camera crew, animators, promotions, colorist, casting producers, drone photographer, sound designer/mixer, lighting/key grip, gaffer, hair and makeup artists, producer/development executives, composers, and all the varied positions to be filled in the realm of motion picture and theatrical stage productions.

Whether you're an actor, camera operator, animator, composer, or anything in between, this intel from the news feeds is geared toward a diverse range of professionals across film, television, and the stage. While agents are key, smaller budget projects can be stepping stones. Get your name out, build your portfolio, and earn a paycheck!

Remember, when dealing with casting or production operations offering auditions and other production crew placements, always check for references, business licenses, or credentials as you deem necessary, and make sure they are in compliance with state and federal laws.

For performers, specific role breakdown details may not be provided in the listings. Just foresight and tips about feature film, television, and commercial projects that are currently or imminently casting. Interpret the industry news and information you parse through here as an opportunity to act proactively and pursue further information from emerging details.

There will be a mix of news and industry intel aimed toward forward-thinking performing talent that considers themselves industry savvy, and pre- and post-production media professionals and talent as well. Ultimately (and traditionally) the greatest opportunities in motion picture and scripted broadcast television will come through a worthy agent. But there are small budget opportunities that can give a performer a vital platform to ply their craft that will be projected to a receptive audience, and best of all, a paycheck.

It is important to keep in mind that the information relating to casting and crew calls may include inaccuracies or errors. There can be no guarantee on the accuracy or reliability of the information. Your use of the information is at your own risk. Get as much information from the source of the call prior to any auditions or submissions. Check that all posted positions should follow all Federal, State, County, and Municipal labor laws.

  • THE'WEATHERMAN
    20 November 2024
    From your inventive designs to your unique organizational structure, it's evident The Burgman Agency appreciates creative thinking, which is a value I also hold. When I worked as a Director at Pratt Creative Group, I approached the executive team with the idea to start hiring remote team members in different areas of the globe to target new markets. While the idea was unlike our previous model of hiring, it helped us expand the business to three new continents, growing our revenue by over $800,000 each year. At Ermacher Studio, I used the management-by-objectives approach to transform the performance review process. I ensured employees understood their expectations, knew how they contributed to organizational growth and had the tools to take action. After implementing regular meetings with management and establishing incremental goals for each team member, we saw a 28% increase in task completion rate and a 12% increase in revenue per employee. During my time at Ermacher Studio, I led my team to win the Goldcrane Excellence in Advertising award for their work on a multi-channel campaign for a client in the automobile industry. With a history of guiding motivated teams toward their goals, I'm confident my sophisticated understanding of the marketing industry and flexible approach to leadership could help The Burgman Agency thrive. Thank you for taking the time to consider my application. I plan to follow up with you by email next week to learn more about the process.
