Sally Andrews, Casting Director

from The Business Of Modelling

Sally Andrews casts actors and models across commercial, fashion and digital campaigns. Her career spans in-person castings and the shift to self-tapes, giving her a clear view of how casting decisions are made, how talent is assessed, and how the process has changed over the past decade. In this episode, Sally breaks down how casting works today, what casting directors are looking for when reviewing self-tapes and Spotlight profiles, and why many strong performers fall short for reasons that have nothing to do with talent. She shares practical insight into authenticity, preparation and presentation, explains common mistakes that stop talent progressing, and offers a grounded perspective on what genuinely makes someone castable in an increasingly competitive landscape. www.businessofmodelling.co.uk   Hosted on Acast.
