This page contains auditions posted on Wednesday, April 20, 2011.
We have spent some time focusing on finding auditions, audition preparation, and booking the right type of work. No matter how talented and gorgeous you may be, it always comes down to who you know, or rather, who knows you.
The big question of this week is - how does networking play a role in your acting career?
How important is it to make an appearance at local film networking events, and how much does it make a difference in your career? Do you attend any local networking events for theater and film? How has it affected the work you are getting, and how have you grown from networking?
Let's start up this week's chat and discuss your thoughts about networking, attending events, and how this has made a difference in your acting career!
If you are a fan of the blog, please share this with actor friends. If you have any feedback for me on how to improve my blog, share this with me so that I may work on improving the blog.
Thanks.

Casting Call for FUN Independent Film
SEEKING a leading role in comedy film “Safety Not Guaranteed”, from the producers of "Cyrus" and starring Jake Johnson, Mark Duplass and Aubrey Plaza. Directed by Colin Trevorrow.
We are casting for a feature film that shoots in May. And we are seeking an actor for one of our leads......Dear Arnau, where are you? It's so fitting that we are seeking you on Craigslist. You fit the following description:
ARNAU- EAST INDIAN MALE, Early 20s. He's a socially awkward brainiac who is working as an intern at a magazine not because he wants to be a writer, but because it will look good on his grad school resume. A student of biology and life sciences, Arnau volunteers for the on-location assignment to research a story about a bizarre ad looking for a time traveling companion found in the classifieds.
He probably has an accent. He really likes online MMOs. Most of all, he wants to be in our movie and is available for most of May. He may or may not have acting experience. He certainly has a sense of humor.
This is a full length, ready to go feature film where you will be paid, fed and treated well. We promise it will be an adventure.
Please reply to the email above and send a photo and letter of interest.
Filming begins early May in Seattle.
