Once again, the Philadelphia Local has partnered with the SAG-AFTRA Foundation to offer a unique opportunity for its members. As part of the Foundation’s Casting Access Online program this class offers actors direct access to perform and video chat with a specified casting director.
When: 1 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 5
Where: 203 S. Broad St., #500
Philadelphia, PA 19102
The casting director for this event will be Danielle Eskinazi, who has cast over 3,000 national and regional commercials spots. Her clients include: Best Buy, Nike, Burger King, L’Oreal, Doritos and many more.
Prior to the event, actors are to prepare their own commercial piece in accordance with the casting director’s specifications. Actors will then participate in a Q&A and reading with the casting director at the Philadelphia Local office. They will perform one by one via video chat, then receive immediate feedback on their performances.
RSVP: Required. You must complete the Online Casting Application through the SAG-AFTRA Foundation prior to registering for the event. Philadelphia members will be fast tracked through this process. Please join the waitlist here as we are seating members from that list. Space is extremely limited and we will be capping attendees at 25 members on a first come, first served basis. We will email those members who have secured a spot.
