  1. M Casting just put out an empty project with a note that the complete project will be released later today... Uhhhh... Today? Seriously?
  2. News flash: If you leave a voicemail that says, "I'm confirmed but I need earlier/later..." THAT'S? Not confirmed.
  3. Day-of auditions are becoming more and more commonplace... So please don't complain about them to us, it's not like we LOVE them either!
  4. Working Actor Tip #27: The second you book that trip? Inform your agents! Duh. 'Nuff said.
  5. Ironic: Notoriously bitchy commercial cd used LACasting to complain about corporate bullying forcing her to pay ot. I hear SHE'S a bully.
  6. Working Actor Tip#26: Yes, we want you to "be yourself" in your rep meeting, but... Keep in mind that is IS an interview for goodness sake!
  7. So I'm going to make that Working Actor Tip #25: Social networking sites aren't really appropriate venues to contact agents.(In my opinion.)
  8. Working Actor Tip #24 (cont) You could potentially be putting yourself in a messy situation w/casting if your crashing goes awry!
  9. WAT#24: If you're going to crash? Crash smart: What's the run? When does it shoot? Is it union? Nonunion? Do you have a conflict?
  10. Actors: Why do you share your auditions w/ your "frenemies"? So they can call their agent, get in and create MORE competition for you?
  11. Working Actor Tip #23: You REALLY don't have to call in after every audition. If we took all those calls, we would never get work done...
  12. Sick. So lets make that Working Actor Tip #22: We assume that you are around/available ALL day, EVERY day. If you aren't? Call in!
  13. Sooooo Working Actor Tip #21: Your headshots should LOOK like you! Yes, it sounds remedial, but...
  14. We assume that you look like your headshots unless to tell/show us otherwise, so why are you choosing to misrepresent yourself on purpose?
  15. WAT#20(cont) You WERE submitted if you were right for it. They just didn't schedule you & that's an easy "excuse" when you're standing there
  16. WAT#20 Beware the cd line,"Your agent didn't submit you." Don't let it plant a seed of doubt in your mind about your rep...
  17. WAT#19 I don't recommend leaving your demo dvd at a rep meeting... If you actually expect it back... Much less your ONLY copy!
  18. WAT#18: Don't EVER stretch the truth-or flat out lie-on your special skills! It's just a matter of time before it comes back to haunt you.
  19. WAT#17: Hey actors? You know when we give you allllll the info w/your audition? Like cb & shoot days? We're not doing it cause it's fun...
  20. WAT#16 is basically a RT of WAT#1: Bookout BEFORE you leave town! Not after you get a voicemail w/an audition and you're already gone!
