Many dream of getting on the TV screen. But the path to fame lies through casting, which you still have to try to get into. In fact, if you are photogenic and the camera "loves" you, you have every chance of getting invited to the casting.
Instructions
Step 1
If you want to get to the casting for filming a TV show, then you need to go to the channel's website. Usually in the forums it is reported about the next casting for various programs. In order to get into the database, you need to send the data requested by the moderator about yourself. Usually these are standard questions: name, year of birth, place of residence, a story about yourself and a photograph.
The story about yourself should be complete and detailed. You should talk about your hobbies, accomplishments, work or occupation. Why do you want to get to the shooting of this particular program? Your story should interest the selection committee, which will invite you to the casting.
Step 2
Casting invitations arrive a few days before the start. Although there are often times when they can call on the same day. You will be invited to the TV center or to the specified studio at a certain time. Take your passport with you to get the pass.
Step 3
Dress in neutral tones - the camera doesn't like colorful colors. Unless, of course, you go to the casting of a humorous show. The ideal option is a business suit. For both men and women. Do your hair and makeup. Pay attention to your hands - get a good manicure. The operator will definitely ask to show hands in close-up.
Step 4
At the casting itself, the director will ask you to say certain lines or do certain actions. The casting itself lasts 5-7 minutes. But you can stand in line from the same people who want to act for more than one hour. After casting, do not pester the director or his assistant with questions: "When will they call me?" If you really fit, they will definitely call you before the start of the scheduled filming. And time can pass from several days to several months.
Step 5
If you want to get cast for a movie, you need to contact an acting agency. Make a portfolio - it can be amateur photography, only of good quality. Be sure to need full-length photographs and close-ups of a face. Your data will be entered into a common database. Please note that registration fees may apply to some agencies. If your type matches the desired one, they will call you and invite you to auditions at the film studio. Basically, these will be castings of extras and advertising.
