Casting Continues

Audition in Progress

We are currently working on some video from the audition.  Hopefully you’ll see that here soon instead of a picture.  But the important thing about the auditions is that we aren’t done.  We actually got a pretty good turn out and some talented actors.  However, we just didn’t find the whole cast. The tough thing about casting isn’t just finding a talented actor, but finding talented actors with the right look and personality to create good chemistry on the set.  I find myself sometimes wanting to stand up and congratulate an actor on their performance, especially when I know they just killed it but they aren’t a fit for the part.  I’ve actually gotten ideas about new shows on occasion just by seeing uniquely talented people act a scene.  But one must focus in order to succeed you know.

We have decided to get votes from the team on call backs.  There were a couple of people that we want to see again with a little more direction to see what they can do.  We held this first audition at studios in San Marcos and we think that may have affected our turnout.  It’s kind of a long drive from San Diego.

So, right now we’re planning our second auditions in San Diego.  We are looking for a space we can borrow for free, but at the most we hope to keep the cost down on a conference room or something.  We don’t need much space, just a place that we can have to ourselves for the day.  We will be having the call backs come to the second audition and we hope to have some good talent for them to read with.  We’ll let you know.
