"I don't have a pool of actors, I have a river…"
--Carol Nadell, Selective Casting






At Selective Casting, we are constantly meeting new people, attending theatre and showcases throughout New York - discovering new talent to add to our existing "river" of actors. How do we work?

Your Professionalism

Our clients have come to expect the best talent in the industry. We are interested in actors with strong training - actors who are passionate and actors who are extremely professional. But being a professional isn't just about the fact that you carry a union card. It's about dependability, punctuality, attitude.

Special Skills

That professionalism extends right through to your resume. In addition to listing your professional credits, "Special Skills" should be highlighted - as long as they are current and accurate. If you say, for instance, you can juggle, make sure you can really juggle. Or if you play the sax, make sure you've picked one up since the third grade. If you haven't, please don't put it on your resume.

Any experience with the film or video technology is also important to list - such as familiarity with teleprompters, ear prompters and as well as your knowledge of particular industries. Just as important as credits and skills, however, is you as a person. Our projects are about the world. They're about human beings. We want real people.

Prescreening

At Selective Casting, one size doesn't fit all. For this reason, we prescreen all talent before they are asked to come to an actual casting session. This pre-screening process is important to both of us. Selective Casting gets to meet you up-close and personal and you become more comfortable with us. Because we pre-screen, you can be assured of the fact that when you are called into one of our casting sessions, your talent and skills are appropriate for the job being cast.
