What's That?

Interview Questions for Casting Directors

HERE'S WHAT HAPPENED

My talent agency hosted a Q&A session with a casting director for their talent roster to attend. It was my first one! 

However, I was shocked at a few things that happened. I've been pushing these tips for a few years now, but casting directors have been more vocal about these same issues since the release of the Clubhouse app. 

This is a quick tips blog post to get you ready for group casting director Q&A sessions. ​These casting directors are sharing their very valuable time with us, so let's not waste it!

Casting Director Meet and Greet Tips


​Tip 1: Ask New Questions aka No Repeats

👉 Listen to your fellow actors’ questions 

👉Let the casting director see that you know how to listen (an important part of acting!)

👉 Add value to the group by hitting on a topic your fellow actors haven't heard an answer to yet

Tip 2: Get to the Point aka No Resumes Please

👉 Think through questions you want to ask before you arrive to the casting Q&A.

👉It’s okay to read your questions verbatim so you don't ramble. Make eye contact once the casting director begins to answer.

👉 Casting directors will use you as an example of what to do or what not to do. Which would you prefer?

Tip 3: Smile and Look Friendly aka No Attitude

👉 Sometimes we furrow our brows when we're confused about something someone said, but your tone will be determined by the look on your face.

👉 Think about something funny so you don't fake smile and make a creepy Joker face.

👉 Be authentic. What are you like on a good day? There's no need to project a personality that’s not yours.
