#11 Contact Casting Directors like a professional

Have the confidence to contact casting directors like a professional.

No one wants to sound like an amateur, especially when you're talking to the person who might be able to give you a job. We know that casting directors are busy people, under a lot of pressure, so what can we do to make their life a little easier? In my opinion, it's getting straight to the point.

Once you've established a relationship with them, then you can be more personable, but until then, don't waste a minute of their time.

Tell them:

• Why you’re contacting them
• Roughly where you’re based and availability
• Offer to self-tape or meet
• Your contact details

Important Links & Mentions

• Here's a link to the email templates which includes a Formal template, an informal template, and a casual template. I’d use these as a guide to find the right tone for you and your voice. It needs to sound like you’ve written it.
• Here's a link to the Free Workshop showing you the most route to getting an agent and becoming a professional.
