When casting a Casting Director, rapport is essential. Whether you
are casting SAG actors, Non-Union talent or Real People, you should feel
that your Casting Director has a clear vision of your vision. To get a
sense of their taste, take a look at a Casting Director’s work, past
and present. Talk to them about the casting you want. The right
Casting Director for you will make you feel confident and, yes, even
excited, about the casting process.
Once you’ve
selected your Casting Director, he or she should be looking at talent
with your vision in mind, filtered through his or her experienced eye.
If you want to be sure the casting is going in the right direction,
don’t hesitate to ask to see a bit of the session early. If your
Casting Director is using the latest available Internet uploading
services, it’s quite simple for them to send you a link of the first few
actors they have auditioned. This will give you the chance to give
them input if you feel the need to. But be sure to ask for this link
early in the preparation process as the Casting Director will need to
schedule the talent accordingly.
