Join us for a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the submission and selection process that casting directors use to set up auditions. Watch live on-screen demonstrations of how submissions are reviewed by casting directors, see why certain profiles stand out (or, are skipped over) and learn how to avoid the most common “mistakes” that keep actors out of the audition room. Taught by Blair Hickey and Brian Wold.
