BOOK IT:
THE AGENT - CASTING PERSPECTIVE
LEARN HOW DECISIONS ARE MADE FROM SUBMISSION TO OFFER
What actually happens from submission âžž audition âžž booking?
What does a callback look like and how common are they in the current landscape of our industry?
This in-conversation workshop gives actors rare, direct access to both sides of the table: with prominent agent and casting director working in today’s industry.
​
You’ll hear firsthand:
-
How agents advocate for their actors and get them into the room
-
How casting reviews submissions, auditions, and contributes to booking decisions
-
What happens after the audition: callbacks, chemistry reads, getting the offer, and beyond
-
What truly makes an actor stand out at each stage of the process
​
Beyond sharing their insights, this is also an interactive conversation where actors can ask questions, gain clarity, and better understand how to position themselves to book.
​
Featuring:
Michael White (The Characters Talent Agency)
Hannah Antaki (Casting Director, Antaki Casting)
​
For actors ready to understand the booking process from the inside out.
