Get the industry intel that helps you land your next audition or production gig

People waiting to be auditioned

This page wasn't meant to be a typical casting call board. Rather, it is more of a listening post for signs and cues that could eventually result in opportunities from the stage, film and/or television studio, and/or indie productions. Most of the sources that contribute to the feeds on this page are production companies, state location services, and the offices of SAG-AFTRA franchised agents (they do issue open casting calls), making it a viable alternative source of information beyond the familiar webcasting sites.

Beyond actors and varied stage performers the listings here will also be helpful to the camera crew, animators, promotions, colorist, casting producers, drone photographer, sound designer/mixer, lighting/key grip, gaffer, hair and makeup artists, producer/development executives, composers, and all the varied positions to be filled in the realm of motion picture and theatrical stage productions.

Whether you're an actor, camera operator, animator, composer, or anything in between, this intel from the news feeds is geared toward a diverse range of professionals across film, television, and the stage. While agents are key, smaller budget projects can be stepping stones. Get your name out, build your portfolio, and earn a paycheck!

Remember, when dealing with casting or production operations offering auditions and other production crew placements, always check for references, business licenses, or credentials as you deem necessary, and make sure they are in compliance with state and federal laws.

For performers, specific role breakdown details may not be provided in the listings. Just foresight and tips about feature film, television, and commercial projects that are currently or imminently casting. Interpret the industry news and information you parse through here as an opportunity to act proactively and pursue further information from emerging details.

There will be a mix of news and industry intel aimed toward forward-thinking performing talent that considers themselves industry savvy, and pre- and post-production media professionals and talent as well. Ultimately (and traditionally) the greatest opportunities in motion picture and scripted broadcast television will come through a worthy agent. But there are small budget opportunities that can give a performer a vital platform to ply their craft that will be projected to a receptive audience, and best of all, a paycheck.

It is important to keep in mind that the information relating to casting and crew calls may include inaccuracies or errors. There can be no guarantee on the accuracy or reliability of the information. Your use of the information is at your own risk. Get as much information from the source of the call prior to any auditions or submissions. Check that all posted positions should follow all Federal, State, County, and Municipal labor laws.

  • Experienced Comedic Director and Producer Needed For Comedy Series Pilot
    18 December 2024
    I am seeking a great, experienced comedic Director and Producer to shoot the Pilot of my comedy series, DK the gig. A cross between Curb Your Enthusiasm, It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia and The Office, the series is not just about a musician, but a universally-relatable series about a very-rough-around-the-edges-but-still-likeable middle-aged underachiever and the group of very quirky and flawed people who are all stuck in his orbit. This has been quite the rollercoaster ride, but in a nutshell, the show has had a lot of interest and momentum in the past, and just when things were really about to take off, Covid hit and pulled the plug on the entire production. It was pulled together once again, and Covid killed that attempt as well. At that point, I had had enough and put the show on the shelf to work on other projects. Now that Covid is not the issue it once was, I am ready to get back to it and want to film a full-length Pilot episode. I am looking for crafty professionals with real attention-to-detail, whose sensibilities align with this series, to do something of quality, and something really fun. I just want to make this pilot amazing, and that's all I'm focusing on right now. SIZZLE here: https://vimeo.com/222444018 (This is the original sizzle, and while it does not display the full scope of the series, it does give a small taste of the show's tone and humor.)
