We have a heavy heart today with the sudden news of the passing of Jenevieve Brewer. She was one of the first agents that we connected with from the beginning. She always managed fiercely for her very talented clients and we trusted her instincts on that. She loved developing actors careers. Everyone that has worked with her or knew her could tell that her clients were so much more - they were friends and family. Thank you for being a genuine colleague through the years and a truly kind human. You will be missed 💔🙏🏼

Is it just me or did we all get to know our neighbors *a lot* better during quarantine. 😂
This @blinds2go ad we cast understood the importance of a good window treatment way before we were all stuck at home. 🧘♂️

Every actor is bound to face rejection. You might even hit a point where you feel like all you are hearing is “no.” But one way to master auditions is to keep doing them.
07/16/2020
It is absolutely crucial for actors to always find new ways to challenge themselves. Take a class, create new work, or simply ask questions. If you are not growing, you are standing still.
07/13/2020
Whenever you audition, be ready for anything. The director and CD might have you try a completely different take just to get a feel for what it is like to work with you. They look to see if you are listening, flexible, and able to take direction in the moment.
07/10/2020
Many decisions are out of your hands in this industry, but one thing you can always control is your effort.

If we want to see real and lasting change in our industry, we need to make sure that women of color have the opportunity to show off their talent on both sides of the camera.

Last week, the US Open announced they would be holding this year's tournament without fans at the matches. Thankfully, John McEnroe makes it crystal clear in this spot that we cast a few years back that there are *lots* of different ways to watch the world's best when they come to Flushing.

If you are ever in doubt about what to do in an audition, remember these three words: Keep. It. Simple. That advice applies to everything from what to wear to the acting choices that you make in the room. All we want to see is you. If we need more, we will let you know.

“In a racist society, it is not enough to be non-racist. We must be anti-racist.” - Angela Davis
We condemn the ongoing racism, discrimination, and violence against Black people and Black communities in this country. We stand in solidarity with those demanding justice.
We will continue to support and amplify the voices of Black talent and Black creators in our industry.
05/29/2020
There are lots of ways to fan your creative flames these days. 🔥
For example, The Public Theater is streaming some of their past productions online and Backstage is offering free classes and forums. And there are plenty more theaters and studios working to help actors out.
You could also read a play or challenge yourself to write or learn a new monologue. (If you need some inspiration, check out the actors who took part in our #showusyourselftape challenge on Instagram!)
Staying at home does not mean you have to stop learning, growing, or honing your craft.

We love Bryan Cranston's mindset when it comes to auditioning. (And we think it is pretty good advice for life in general.)
Don’t worry about “fitting a role.” Concentrate on being true to yourself and showing everyone what you—and only you—can do.

Penny Marshall’s ‘Big’ was the first film directed by a woman to make over $100 million at the US box office.
Penny proved that you don’t need to know every single thing about the industry to be successful. What’s most important is that you know your own strengths.

Watch how Paul Spriggs is able to dial up his performance is our newest #SidesToScreen.
These casting sessions were super fun. Inspired by those old Richard Simmons workout tapes, the creative called for a magical fitness instructor that would suddenly appear to teach people heart-healthy habits.
In all of these setups, Paul did a great job slowly raising up the energy with each take. He showed his range by not going from zero to sixty in the blink of an eye. He hit different levels and kept his control along the way, which was exactly what we were looking for.

Context is everything for an actor. Go over any and all of the material you get with your audition: script, character descriptions, project synopsis, etc. You may not always get a full script, but any information you have about your character and the piece will make your choices that much stronger and clearer.
A few minutes of research can make all the difference in your next audition.

Helping a 12-year-old actor up his self-tape game
A few weeks ago, I partnered up with @backstagecast for a Q&A session and a series of virtual one-on-ones with talent. One of the actors I chose to meet with was Jonathan, a 12 year old living in Brooklyn.
He and his mom Regine wanted advice on a recent self-tape he submitted. After I gave Jonathan play-by-play notes, he sent me a new take. I was so happy to see how well he made the adjustments we had gone over!
I wanted to share this video of our conversation because we covered a few self-tapes tips that could help any actor improve their remote submissions. Jonathan’s before and after is a great reminder of how a few simple changes can make all the difference.

It’s always nice to work on a spot for a product that I have been using very often, especially these past couple of weeks. It’s been a lifesaver since I have been wearing gloves and washing my hands multiple times a day. 🧤💛⠀

I had a great time holding “Office Hours” on the @backstagecast forum last week. Wanted to share one of my favorite questions. You heard it hear first: your quarantine beard does not have to go if you do not want it to. 🧔

Did you know that The Globe was shuttered from 1605 to 1606 due to the plague? Shakespeare spent that time writing ‘King Lear,’ ‘Antony and Cleopatra,’ and ‘Macbeth.’
Not holding anyone to The Bard’s standards, but what quarantine accomplishment you are most proud of so far?

Right now, actors are auditioning through self-tapes, which means you don’t have the feedback or direction you normally get in the room. Our best advice: make a choice. Decision making is key in any audition, but it’s especially important with a self-tape. We want to see the actor choose a direction with the character and run with it.
Go for it. If you don’t like how it turns out, make another choice. (The nice part about a self-tape is that you get to call the cuts. 🎥🎬)

In our third episode of #SidesToScreen—where we match up moments from our favorite projects with the auditions of the actors that booked it—we are looking at Rachel Niu’s (@niugirl) work in a spot for Disney Springs.
A lot of times in an audition with no dialogue, we will run actors through different emotions to get a sense of their range. Rachel does an incredible job hitting each of the reactions we called out in the room. She’s expressive, but not over the top, which was a perfect fit for the ad's fresh spin on ‘Alice in Wonderland.’
Rachel’s performance is proof that the old saying is true: less is more. I would rather redirect someone to give more than try and reel someone in once they’ve gone too big. - KP

If you could give a new actor one piece of advice before their very first audition, what would it be?
Vida clearly knows rule #1: always hit your mark. 🎯

New York feels different now. I took these pictures on my walk with Vida. What I love—and have always loved—about this city is the energy, the people, and the life it has. We are missing it now, but I know it will be back. ❤️- KP

Even when it’s on pause, NYC is still the greatest city in the world. To all my fellow New Yorkers, what do you miss most about the city right now? (Super-inspiring image created by Guniz Engur at Organizma Branding 💛)
Our second episode of #SidesToScreen—where we match up moments from our favorite projects with the auditions of the actors that booked it—stars William Douglas Turner in a spot for Sabra. Our casting reference was “the Billy Mays salesperson of hummus”—a fun, over the top pitchman who is totally in love with his product—and Will delivered right away. Even without the set or Amanda Finch's perfectly distressed lettuce chopping, Will made us feel like we were watching an “As Seen On TV” ad. (Sidenote for all actors: this is an example of when the “references” on your sides can be your best friend. And if you’re not familiar with a reference, please ask us!) Oddly enough, Will’s callback was nothing like his first audition. Since he had nailed his Billy Mays so hard, we wanted to see his range and how well he would react to new direction. Of course, he knocked that out of the park, too. But when it came time to shoot, the director went with the energy that Will gave us the second he walked in the door.
This video is something that we have been wanting to try for a while. To show how our casting sessions translate to the screen, we’re taking moments from some of our favorite projects and matching them up with the auditions of the actors who booked the job. First up, we’ve got Kieron Anthony in a cinematic spot for Ethiad Airways about a father rushing home to see his daughter walk on the field at an NYCFC game. Because the project relied on so much visual storytelling, the director—who was actually Skype-ing in for this callback—leads Kieron through the emotional arc of the piece, calling out different feelings and reactions for him to embody. We know that these kinds of exercises might feel a little strange in the audition room, but hopefully when you compare it to the finished project, you can see why Kieron’s emotional flexibility was so, so crucial to the success of the project.

As they say in Asia, FU MfEr...
Racist!! What is next African American but not to dark??
You guys are pathetic. You have the audacity and ignorance to post this casting, get called out, block mentions on instagram and facebook, turn off instagram comments, JUST TO SAVE FACE. WITHOUT TAKING ANY ACCOUNTABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS. The BRAND apologized before you did. IT IS YOUR TURN TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR IGNORANCE.
You’ve shown your hand in how you cast ethnicities. It’s 2020. I’m sure you can find a better way to say “Asian”, “Asian-American”, etc without being so offensive.
Do better.
A huge thank you to Kristen for Wednesday's Backstage video chat. I learned so much.

That’s right. You don’t have to leave your house to meet your match. Nor do you have to put on your best pair of pants or highest heels.

To make it more enticing, we will pay for your face-to-face date. No FaceTiming allowed for that first meeting.
Since our show is viewed by people of all ages, we need to you to keep it PG-13. We also ask that you dress conservatively for it. You never get a second chance to make a first impression.
Are you ready to meet your possible soulmate? Great! Then to apply, please fill out the information on this link https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1SNOHT1aJ3FQxBAcRMOTWi6ONwWgHuP9muQKviTWEk9Q/
