End of August thought
Thought for the day – Monday August 29th 2011
Casting - don’t cast solely by looks.
Don’t assume at the audition that someone who looks perfect for the role will be perfect.
Often the best casting choices are against type.
Don’t necessarily reject an actor because of a bad reading. Try directing them and see how they adjust. The auditioner’s reaction during an audition is part of the audition.
Remember - actors are people too - treat them with respect.

Create memorable entrances
Your protagonist’s character, style, and behavior must be distinctive from the moment we first lay eyes on them. This is how the audience will first judge their character.
Show don’t tell
Visual cues demonstrate the unseen the inner psychology, hidden histories, and emotional conflicts.
