I have a question how about if your agency isn't that famous
@@ministereliondelatribudeju628 There's no reason for an agency to be famous. All that matters is that they do their job, which is to help get you opportunities and negotiate contracts.
How to download this cheat sheet
I'm interested
Your videos 📹 are a great 👍 help for me to learn some things on how to be a actor so thanks
The Casting Director is basically the "Human Resources Department" ;)
😂 at least they don't have to deal with employees stealing each other's lunches of of the fridge.
@@ActingCareerCenter LMAO!!!
@@ActingCareerCenter 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Exactly! 😁
Definitely, for the actors but there's a lot of other people involved in making a movie and the duty of hiring those people would usually either go to the UPM (unit production manager) or the producer who hired the UPM. And the UPM might discuss hiring decisions with the director and/or producers.
COBRA KAI NEVER DIES
STRIKE FIRST. STRIKE HARD. NO MERCY. #CobraKaiOnNetflix
Thank you so much for recommending the series!! I Loved it!! Enjoyed you in it!
G.I.Joe snake Eyes vs. Cobra Kai
COBRA KAI NEVER DIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow Kurt. You're fantastic. You give such awesome advice. It's nice to gain knowledge from someone who has a lot of experience. Thank you
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hit the nail on the Head AGAIN! as a budding new CD. I have experienced all you have talked about when casting for feature films, proof of concepts and commercials. It's great when people understand the process and how many other factors going on behind the scenes and why actors should always bring their "A" game right off the bat. And I keep folks in mind who may not have booked the role but came close! I tend to watch for them to submit for other projects.
Yes! Book the room!
I love behind the scenes because they give me more insight to what my career will hopefully look like soon.
Plus sometimes actors drop out. You need a backup.
Can you do a video on how to become a child/teen actor
Same, how?
You need money for that
@Madison Eklund ik that but some parents do not allow kids to be teen actors or have enough money
@Madison Eklund yes proffecianal headshots are a most considering it shows u are serious for it an a agent or talent manager u need to have if u want those main roles ect yes they get paid a pecentage of what u make for that production
Omg bro I been watched cobra Kai and just noticed that was you😂
SO! ACTING IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR IS ACTUALLY MILES AWAY FRON THE REALITY.HAHAH. THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS. SO INTERESTING TO WATCH
Hey Kurt. I just got booked on my first SAG speaking role. I never got a call back from my FIRST EVER (Zoom) audition and almost a month later I got an urgent availability check. Two days later I received an offer to play a different but similar role that had the same number of filming dates!.. I'm super excited and owe you a lot of credit!
CONGRATULATIONS! That is wonderful to hear! I hope you have a great time on set!
OMG THATS SO COOL WOAH

Thanks for watching!
Thank you!!!
You're welcome!
I literally knew 0 about casting, now I have a basic idea. Thanks to Yue :)
great info brother, finding an agent is a real challenge
I've always felt that it's best to let the agent find you than to seek one out. You'll actually get a better agent; one that's better suited to your career path if you let the agent find you. Once you're on the casting sites all of the agencies can see you; look over your profile; headshots; resume, see what acting schools you went to and each agency usually has it's own specific criteria that they're looking for. They might be looking mostly for kids and teens or mostly ethnic actors or comedic actors; some of them love veterans and are always trying to add military veterans to their rosters or people that have a background in martial arts; weapons handling etc. If you put all of that stuff on your casting site profile the right agent will find you. Otherwise it can be like trying to find a needle in a haystack, having that profile completely filled out is like having a super powerful magnet.
Kurt this was an excellent explanation into the process of how to get cast in a movie or show. I just so happen to have an audition coming up on Monday so thanks for the auditioning cheat sheet. I'll take all the help I can get!! I will also make sure to check out Cobra Kai.
Break legs on Monday!
@@ActingCareerCenter ty!!
you your amazing in cobra kye i loved your carector
Awesome show Cobra Kai
Hi, I just had a few questions:
1). If the main character of a project is being cast through a public audition, how likely is it that other important roles in the show or movie be casted through this process as well?
2) How does the selection process work for a self tape and how does a callback work in those conditions?
3) If u are a teen actor, does a casting team contact you through your parents contacts or through your personal phone and such?
I love your shirt
You were so good in cobra kai
You were awesome
Sorry but now I can’t help but see you as an attorney 🤣even though I know you’re an actor and I love love love that you make these videos for us. Thanks again!
Small indie films often use a combination of a casting director and an open call, in my experience. I'd suggest actors network and keep their eyes open.
I will tell you an actor with a poor headshot or worse, no headshot is at a real disadvantage. Include a resume, please. I also like a video audition.
Wow it’s good to know, I was so scared I had to audition in a room full of other actors but I can just do it in my room
That's not always an option. Sometimes you will be called in to audition in person but normally you get your two minutes in front of the casting director then you're out and the next actor comes in but sometimes they'll audition five or more at a time in order to see how each actor "works off" the other actors rather than in isolation.
@@hadialsayed2992 Before the audition you're usually given "sides" which is just a few pages from the script. It might be five pages worth of dialogue that you have to memorize before you get to the audition and SOMETIMES they give you nothing until you arrive for the audition, where they hand you two or three pages and only give you five minutes to go over it before you go in front of the casting director. And when you do go in front of the casting director it's not enough that you just memorized the lines and can recite them - you have to be able to bring that character to life in a way that SEEMS like you're just making the words up as you speak.
Hi, I know this video is quite old now, however could you make a video about the process or what to expect after being officially casted for a role? Exactly what should Actors expect after being casted in a Film or Television Series?
Seen it waiting for new season
I am dreaming to become an actor too, probably in other country such as Thailand, or in Hollywood ❤️🙏😍💪
This guy is great unlike actors academy thank you for offering acting advice for free that is better then most paid acting courses
You should still take acting classes. Kurt took acting classes.
this is really interesting! Do you have a video on self tapes? If not, could you do one and include some examples and where to get scripts for them?
Here's a video about self taping: th-cam.com/video/ghFZgmFA3a0/w-d-xo.html
@@ActingCareerCenter Thank you so much!
Yes I saw you
One thing I do like about this industry is there's lots of different caveats to it. Example, I'm doing improv and I'm working on a job at a local theatre. Not an onstage job but still it's a thing. Much like this life, you won't always be center stage. To learn the different aspects is good. To enjoy what your part was is good. Without the idea that you were lesser without doing that.
