| Here is a list of sites where you can post your casting call: www.backstage.com This is one of the most widely used actor sites. It has great actors, both union and non-union. It's a little pricey but they have a 50% student discount for your FIRST posting. It is WELL worth it. www.nycasting.comwww.freecastingcall.comwww.breakdownexpress.comwww.mandy.comwww.craigslist.com Ahhhhh, good ol' craigslist. Yea, you might have gotten that great deal on a couch last summer but you'll also get a great "deal" on a actor. Don't get me wrong, people have found amazing actors for their parts using craigslist. You WILL get responses but just to let you know, you'll definitely have some doozy's! Pick and choose wisely, my friend. Sample casting call:Job title: SVA, "The Conditions We're In" Company name: School of Visual Arts- The Project Class Desctiption: JD Gargano (dir.) is casting THE CONDITIONS WE'RE IN, an eight-minute student film for SVA's "The Project Class" shot on HD about a young wife who's caring for her comatose quadriplegic husband while harboring a secret that drives her friends and family away.
