Open Casting - An Open Stage For Interested Talent

Auditions are essentially a job interview for models and actors . Anyone interested in a role in a TV series, film or commercial usually goes through an audition. The potential clients select the right actors for the role to be cast from the group of applicants. Whether dubbing actors, singers , fashion models or presenters , castings are selection procedures and are carried out in order to achieve the best casting for the respective role.

What is special about an open casting compared to other castings?

Normally, the casting agency invites certain selected talents and actors to a specific casting date. The modelling agency usually makes a pre-selection and offers this date specifically to a few models. An open casting is different. Here you are not personally invited. Any model or other talent can come to an open casting, anyone interested can take part and present themselves. There are open castings in almost all areas of the media industry, for example for acting, modelling or cinema films. Aspiring models can present themselves to various clients for their projects. This often involves fashion shows , videos for online shops or photo shoots for social media. The advantage for clients: in an open casting, fashion and other product brands can address broad groups of people who are suitable for advertising productions .

How do you find out about an open casting?

Information about open castings is usually easily accessible. There are regular casting calls on social media. Model agencies and fashion brands also invite people to open castings.

What should you consider before an open casting?

It is important that you prepare yourself for an open casting so that you leave a positive impression. Your appearance should be natural, without flashy styling or heavy make-up . You should choose a simple outfit, preferably in neutral colours such as white or black. This way, nothing will distract from you as a person. It makes sense to find out in advance whether the project will involve a photo shoot, a fashion show or another appearance. If you have already worked as a performer, you should bring the best photos from previous jobs on your mobile phone or tablet. If you want to audition as a model, a photo portfolio is very important so that the client can get an idea of your experience and skills.
