Before
The notice we receive for castings can vary from a few days to a few hours. To meet our client’s
expectations we always try as best as possible to fulfill their needs and requirements,
in turn, we are exceptionally grateful to the mums and dads who make these
short notice castings possible.
We will always call
both parents as first mode of contact; we will leave a voicemail followed by a
text if no one answers (also bear in mind we call from a blocked number). All castings are considered urgent.
You will receive a text message such as the one to the right:
If the casting is for today or tomorrow the message
will say:
‘Please call Amanda regarding a casting
request for your child ASAP. Phone Bettina Management on 1300
888 611.’
Please treat all casting correspondence with a sense
of urgency even if the message does not stipulate what day the casting is. We
still need to get back to the client as soon as possible with the confirmed
children. Upon not hearing back from you, we will have to let the client know
you are unavailable and proceed to choose other children in your place so it is
always in your best interest to call us back ASAP so that you don’t miss out.
It is your responsibility
to ensure that you receive all relevant information about the casting – after speaking
to you on the phone, we will email you all the information including date, time,
address, map (if applicable), and other relevant information you need to be
aware of prior to attending. If you do not receive this email, please contact
us immediately! We don’t know that you haven’t received the email unless you
tell us. This is also not a plausible excuse if you fail to attend the casting
based on the premise that you didn't receive the details.
If you cannot make a casting due to illness/ changed circumstances you will need to let us know immediately.
Please refer to/ refresh your memory with this blog post on First Casting Jitters to help with preparation once your casting has been confirmed!
