Everything is Instant

We're no longer in the age of dial-up, pay phones or VHS players. Everything is instant. This is something people really need to adapt to and understand.  A majority of our auditions are no longer in person and they are sent out in digital files known as "self-tapes." Agents, casting directors, producers, and directors can view these auditions the moment they are uploaded. Casting views auditions as they come in and they frequently make their decisions just as quickly. Why not be one of the first to submit and help make their decision easy? Remember, they want you to do well so they can cast their project.

With that said, take note of your deadlines and DO NOT plan to have the audition submitted to your agency right at the cusp. They still have to download the files and send them to the appropriate casting director.

Moreover, you're probably not taping the audition yourself and you most likely have to employ a taping service. The service's schedule may be full or filling up, leaving you in a rush to tape your audition if you procrastinate. Now there are a number of factors coming into play that can delay your audition from the submission deadline.

Check your email frequently. Schedule your audition appropriately. Increase your chance of booking.

Self-taping and coaching are just a couple services The Bungalow Productions offers.
