Getting cast isn’t just about talent. It’s about making sure casting directors can see you, understand where you fit, and remember you. In this exclusive Stage 32 webinar, you’ll get a look inside the casting process so you can better understand what happens on the other side of your submission and how you can show up in a way that gets you noticed for the right reasons!

If you’ve ever wondered why your submissions go unanswered, why your reel isn’t leading to callbacks, or why a strong audition doesn’t go anywhere, you’ll learn where those gaps may be happening. From your headshots, resume and reel to your online presence and self-tapes, you’ll get practical insight into what may be helping or hurting your chances and what you can do differently before your next submission.

You’ll learn directly from Olissa Rogers, a working casting director with nearly two decades of experience across film and television, including TED LASSO, ROYAL MOB and AFRICAN QUEENS. She’ll give you a current, behind-the-scenes look at how casting directors actually evaluate actors and what can make you stand out when you’re competing for attention.

You’ll also learn how to approach casting directors professionally, stay on their radar without overstepping, make your self-tape count from the first few seconds, and understand what happens after you audition. Plus, Olissa will join you for a live Q&A, giving you the opportunity to ask about the specific challenges you’re facing in your career.

Leave with practical takeaways you can put to work immediately, from strengthening your materials and self-tapes to improving how you approach casting opportunities! You can’t control every casting decision, but you can control how you present yourself when the opportunity comes.
