Wow! What an exciting day!
Today I had my first TV co-star audition! I was called in by Kendra Castleberry at Donna Rosenstein Casting for a role in “Castle”. Great show! I met Kendra at a 3 workshop at AIA Studios last fall. I am so excited about today’s audition!
Wondering what a c0-star role is? A co-star is a supporting character in one episode of a TV Show. A co-star can be one line, one scene with a series regular, or even a couple scenes with one or two lines in each. Every show is different.
Back to the audition. I prepared the sides and arrived at the casting office 10 minutes before my audition. There were a number of blonde girls my age who were called in for the role. I walked by a couple leaving as I walked into the building and I rode the elevator up with another girl, who was very nice. There wasn’t a bathroom nearby and she lent me her compact mirror for a last-minute touch up.
Kendra walked out of the audition room to check off the next name on the list. I greeted her with a “good morning” and she said hello back as she asked the next girl to join her in the audition room. Before I knew it, it was my turn. I walked in and greeting Angela Scalleta, the casting associate, who was behind the camera. I have also taken a workshop with Angela at AIA. The audition was quick. Kendra directed me in another take and I left feeling like I had given her what she has asked for.
What a thrill. Thank you Kendra Castleberry so much for the opportunity to audition for you. It was such a treat!
I also had a Print Audition today. Aurora at KSR Models sent me to Comcast audition. They are looking for a model from the back of the head. I arrived at the studio and the photographer took a couple quick pictures.
What a great day!
