i need to cut back on eating. i've been eating too much food lately.

and i'm a better actor when my stomach is empty. i'm not sure why.

i have more energy or something.

On another note...

i've been realizing that there are like three casting directors in the city that do not audition me. ever.

i was talking to another actor the other day, and i they told me about a casting office that they regularly audition at, but i've never auditioned there.

one of the main jobs of an actor, is to build a relationship with the casting directors in your city. this relationship is crucial... my career depends on it.

  1. People have often told me that your agent's relationship with the casting directors can have a big influence as to whether or not you get called in. So that might be something to look into if you are actively trying to get seen by specific casting directors.

  2. in this city the casting directors are too safe, it's tough to get seen by anyone. Especially since they only call in like 3 or 4 people for each role.. it's always the same people. then they call in new people when they have no chance of getting the part (like if it's already been cast in the US) and it's frequently not even a part you'd play..
    it's kind of a broken system... but if you figure out a way in, let me know!

  3. haha... if i crack the system, i'll definitely report back to you.

    i went to a lewis-kay casting workshop last year, it was like $125 bucks. it helped, cause they started bringing me in after that.

    but the workshops don't come around that often.
