SYNOPSIS

This online class will provide feedback from an experienced casting professional. No more than 20 performers will be participating. 

We will be holding a Q&A with Angela via ZOOM on Tuesday at 11:00AM PACIFIC | 2:00PM EASTERN. After the Q&A she will view your self-tapes and provide written feedback.  Participants MUST be able to complete their self-tape and submit via an Unlisted YouTube Link and send the link to castingaccess@sagaftra.foundation by 6am PST | 9am EST Tuesday, April 4th. (Please see additional self-tape instructions below). 

All RSVP'D Members will receive a ZOOM Link inviting them to join the class the morning of the Q&A.

Participating actors should select material from film or tv that best showcases their work.  You will have until the deadline to rehearse, record, and upload a video containing your performance of the sides. You will upload the video using your YouTube account and email the video link. Finally, the casting director will review your workshop video and provided written notes.

Waitlisted individuals who have not received such confirmation will not be admitted at the door. Please do not show up if you have not been explicitly confirmed as RSVPed.


Your video will not be accepted IF:

-Your video is shot vertically instead of horizontally. If you need to shoot on an iPhone or tablet, turn it sideways.

-It is not appropriately framed. Standard framing is top of the head to mid chest.

-The video has poor sound, clarity, or lighting. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but it cannot take away from your performance.

-You have a distracting background. If you cannot provide a solid background, a minimal background is best.

-Your video has title cards or subtitles. They are unnecessary.

-Your video settings are not Unlisted. Videos that are Private or Public will not be accepted.

-You “share” the video through YouTube. You must email the video URL to the specified email address.
