This is crucial information that helps you determine how you can best contribute to the overall casting puzzle. You need to understand project breakdowns, actor submissions, audition scheduling, and director callbacks. You will need insight as to why one actor may be selected to audition over another and you’ll also need to know about the many factors that determine which actors advance in the casting process and ultimately book the role.
If you’re an actor, you may focus on winning the room. If you’re a filmmaker, you may be focused on finding the best performance in the quickest way possible.
