Don’t be upset if you are not often chosen.  The film business is a visual medium; acting ability is only one quality you must have.  You must additionally have a look that fits one character in a film of which only a few characters are included in each film.  It seems there are as many people styles in the world as stars in the sky yet precious few of those stars will be developed somewhat as a character in a script.  You need luck; it’s a tough business.  On rare occasions people do become celebrities of whom scripts are written as to accommodate, in order to catch upon a wave generated by a character they’ve engendered.  But don’t dishearten alas you do have a good chance of becoming a background actor, acting so naturally and obscurely that you’re just a person, a body type filling space.  Background actors, in many films, will be paid a basic wage.  In fact some people even scratch out a meager part-time living as an extra. 
So be happy and break a leg.

Greetings from Hollywoodsouth.8k.com,

I am writing to explain some changes made to the site.  My hope was that this site would be more immediate than others (you having more control, as meaning "HERE / NOW", over placement of "YOUR" data plus picture); it's workable, but we all know the dangers we live with.  Casting privately directly, through using e-mail addresses, leaves open the possibility of a predator luring innocent persons without being observed and leaves open the possibility of illicit activities being operated on site without means to notice and stop them. Therefore Extras/Talent e-mail addresses will no longer be asked for in the Extras/Talent submit to weblog; however in lieu, I have created a weblog of casting-call rosters. Casting personal reviewing for talent are instructed to utilize a roster in the manner of first inserting their production's Title, contact information, phone number, and address on their roster ( found in  submit roster) for display publically here ( in the weblog of rosters) ; then casting personnel may simultaneously review, in another window,  (by copying now, and after going to submit-roster, pasting into a newly opened window the following web address )http://books.dreambook.com/webhost7/main.html, the Extras/Talent WEBLOG to select and list on their roster each Date/Time-stamp associated with each extra/talent-found-in-the-Extra/Talent weblog whom has qualities meeting their needs.  Extras/Talent will need to review the production rosters on occasion ( found in the Weblog of Rosters) to observe whether their Date/Time-stamp has been called for possible use in a film. I suggest that you verify the legitimacy of the production by checking to see if their title information is listed at an agency such as the Louisiana Film Commission http://lafilm.org etc.; then later contacting the production company through their here publicly displayed information.  I cannot assure you that this site will be of value to you but it is free and I dream it will take off on its own.

 

 

Production companies, in regard to casting calls, please click "submit  roster"-- see below,  in submit roster enter your production name, contact information, and the time span in which your call is to remain open, then insert the date and time stamps of as many extras/ talent found in the Extras/talent Weblog that are of interest to you; eventually however, you must provide physical location and the hosting to receive them.


PRODUCTION STAFF: provide contact information and notify talent     Submit Roster -- HERE ! Other entries will be deleted. 

TUTORIAL for Utilizing the Roster -- Notify Extra/Talent

Productions reviewing site>>>>Write in The DreamBook here, state your interest or desires (if you think a service category needs to be included please submit) !

     Readers will see the DreamBook entries here !

 

Production staff may check the site or utilize the site for initial casting/sorting of respondents.  It’s free and fully interactive; what’s necessary is for the productions to place their needs here, give the casting services the site address, and review respondents data as they come in.

Production companies, if you need a virtual extras/talent reception area that's dedicated to extras/talent applying only to you, then I can create a temporary room named exclusively for you.  E-mail me at the bottom of this page.

From out of frustration, likely as from attending open casting calls, I came to conceive this website.  I found lots of travel time lost in attending open calls yet, for me, open casting calls seemed to be the best way to keep myself visible.  I had joined some casting services but became disillusioned as it grew apparent that, once included in their expanding data bases, I later was buried under-new-recruits rarely to be found again.  It’s understandable that those services need a constant influx of new people, such to accumulate cash flow enough to stay in business.  But I needed to save time and, from the aforesaid, it occured to me that inventing a website where initial casting/ sorting could be accomplished would ferret out those really needed for travel to an in person interview.  It also occured to me that having job seekers resubmit their information, as onto a very slow moving conveyer, would be a way to reveal those job seekers really currently available, placing more power in the hands of the job seeker to keep his or her data where it could be seen.  Of course casting services are still needed, as is in the real world, to watch for openings, to gather their clients, and to direct them to the job location.
You could think of my web site as a field of dreams.

**My intention is for this site to be free, unless exceptional services are required; however, here is a useful method I have found for making electronic payments over the net**
