The post P+ Talent Shine in Theatrical and On-Camera Bookings appeared first on Productions Plus.

Hosted by our CEO and President, Hedy Popson, this episode was more than just an industry interview—it was a masterclass in navigating a career in entertainment. Janet shares her journey from modeling in bell bottoms for AMC (yes, the car company once sold clothes!) to booking roles for Clint Eastwood films and casting Drew Barrymore’s roller derby movie Whip It.

🎭 Highlights from the episode include:

• The surprising truth about what casting directors actually look for in an audition (hint: it’s not your resume).
• The difference between a casting director and a talent agent—and why that distinction matters.
• How charisma, behavior on set, and authenticity can make or break a career.
• Practical tips for nailing self-tapes, from lighting and slates to following directions.
• Why actors need to be flexible, take direction well, and—above all—have fun with the process.

Janet also shares advice from her new book, Advice from a Casting Director, which is available now on Amazon. The book includes industry stories, audition tips, and original monologues to help actors expand their toolbox.

Whether you’re a seasoned performer or just getting started, this episode is packed with valuable lessons, humorous anecdotes, and real-world advice that demystifies the often intimidating audition process.

The post Nationwide Representation: Union & Non-Union Projects appeared first on Productions Plus.

Here are a few general guidelines to follow to make sure you present the best you:

• Choose a location with good lighting and a neutral background.
• Begin with head and shoulder shot facing directly into the camera stating your first name, last name, and agency (Productions Plus).
• Follow with a full body shot directly facing the camera.
• Return to the initial head and shoulder shot looking just off-camera (not looking directly at the camera) speaking to another person or reader.

This has been a new adjustment for many in the industry, but it just goes to show the adaptability of everyone—from self-taped auditions by talent to callbacks via Zoom which have allowed continued casting and shooting of projects.

Just remember that professional studio quality is not required, let alone expected, from these self-taped auditions. The main objective is to be audible and visible.

The post Self-Taped Audition Tips appeared first on Productions Plus.

Well, before you get invited to suit up in the latest superhero franchise-

You need to start AUDITIONING!

And GOOD NEWS –

If you live in LA or NY, there are big studios casting ALL THE TIME for projects!

But wait… you don’t live in either of these major markets?

And you can’t afford to drive/fly to the coast for every project you’re asked to audition for?
Hmmm…

Don’t Panic. We live in the digital age, and MOST projects accept taped auditions! And many agencies, like ours, will film an audition for you.

Seriously.

We do it for free!

But if yours doesn’t, you can also pay many private studios to coach and film you.

BUT if it’s after hours or you need to turn around a project quickly, you need to become a black belt in the art of the SELF-TAPE.

Think of Productions Plus as your sensei because we are starting a new series of videos to help you perfect this practice.

Wax On, Neil.

Did you take notes? Here’s what we want to make sure you didn’t miss-

Make sure you are well lit. Shadows are no one’s friend.

And competition is fierce. Don’t make casting guess at what you look like.

Don’t let the background steal focus. Keep it as plain and simple as you can.

Hang a sheet or find a blank wall because an unmade bed behind you is not the way to fast-track to stardom.

Frame yourself properly. The crazy thing is most actors shoot from the wrong direction with their phones.

Resist the vertical! It feels wrong but holding your phone horizontal is so, so right.

Did you know casting directors will reject submissions if they are shot wrong?

Don’t take that risk. You’ve been practicing your lines for too long.

Right?

Because you should be off book. Or at least holding your script out of frame.

This is acting! Not reading ????

Let’s talk about eyelines next, because you shouldn’t be looking into the camera unless instructed.

Trust us.

You look really crazy. And maybe that’s the role you were going for, but superheroes are not usually the crazy ones.

Except maybe when Robert Downey Jr. is the star.

But RDJ probably doesn’t need to self-tape anymore, sooooo…..

Always have someone to read with you off camera. You can and should look and react to them as you would an onscreen partner.

Got a take you like? Make sure you send that submission back to your agent properly.

Never send huge movie files on in an email. Servers will reject them or compress them to a grainy quality.

We like Google Drive, Drop Box or We transfer.

And when you’re ready to take your training a step further… We’ll have more videos coming in the upcoming weeks covering topics like:

– Self-Tape Lighting
– Self-Tape Equipment
– Self-Tape Slating
– And more!

Thanks for watching and don’t forget to thank us in your awards acceptance speech.
