Audition Season
This week, I began seeing signs of audition season approaching. I joined several groups and pages on Facebook dedicated to performing arts casting calls and event notifactions. This week I saw an increase of casting calls being posted in the Orlando area compared earlier in the summer. In Tallahassee, typically, casting calls are posted around September or October- after the semester begins for FSU students. The casting calls for both cities are usually posted by Film students who are casting for their thesis film. I also sometimes see casting calls for commercials or fashion shows. Some people reading this may be wondering "Have you seen any casting calls for major films?" The answer is yes, actually. A couple of years ago, I saw a casting call for extras in a major film being shot in Thomasville, Georgia. And just yesterday for another in Miami. Did I apply for either? No, sadly. I really wanted to, but I had conflicts for both. I'll be making my move to Orlando the week of the film in Miami. Maybe I'll get a chance another day.

What a great example of how social media can be used for networking and informal learning in the arts. I had no idea there were so many opportunities shared that way, even for major films! It’s a bummer you couldn’t apply to those recent ones, but it sounds like you’re in the right spaces and making great connections. Wishing you luck with your move to Orlando and fingers crossed for an exciting audition season ahead!

ReplyDeleteHi Aya! That's so cool! I have a lot of friends that were in the film scene at FSU before graduating, but I never asked about the whole audition process and how they found opportunities. Good luck on your move, and I hope you get to audition next time, that seems really cool!
