How to Find Movie Casting Calls
 Sometimes
finding movie casting calls can be a real challenge. Here are some
tips on how to find movie casting calls:
· Online
Surprisingly enough—casting calls for movies like the Harry
Potter series have actually been posted on line without a whole
lot of requirements as to experience etc. I also noticed that X
Men 3 and several other sites that will help register the aspiring
actor for casting calls to audition to be in the movies. Some of
these sites are great to register to and they will send you casting
calls when they match up well with your resume. However, some of
these sites you will register on receive so many registrations and
have so many resumes to look at, that they are likely never to contact
you back. Some websites give the direct time and place, list compensation
and parts they are looking for. There are casting calls posted on
these sites for both union and non-union actors—some of them
calling specifically for non-union. I was able to find casing calls
for a "Rocky" Sequel, a Ben Stiller Movie called "Night
at the Museum", Castle Rock Film posted a casting call for
a movie called "Chaos Theory", as well as a Bruce Willis
Film coming out soon called "Perfect Stranger".
· Acting Agents and/or Agencies
Of course, an acting agent can always find movie casting calls for
his or her clients that are perhaps offer better roles and are based
on the success of actors represented by that particular acting agent
or agency. Undoubtedly an acting agency will have knowledge of more
movie casting calls than one could find searching all alone.
· Acting Schools and Institutions
Other ways to find movie casting calls would be through acting schools
or institutions. There may be bulletin boards announcing movie casting
calls that someone unaffiliated with that institution or school
would not otherwise see.
· Acting/Talent Scouts
Talent/acting scouts may happen to see you in a performance or something
of the like and invite you to audition in a movie casting call.
