Casting: the first batch of actors…
We had two actors come in for casting of the iControl spot. We conducted the reading in a studio and taped the reading for review. We’re looking for an “every-man” and “-woman”, someone the viewing audience can easily identify with. The right look is more important the good looks and their ability to communicate the basic ideas of the spot.
The first girls had the right age and a nice look, but had an accent and had a hard time understanding basic direction. Too much work for a tight schedule we’re likely to have.
The second girl was late! I hate late!! She was better, but not perfect. They’re looking at more people on Saturday. I’ll be there for a few people then I have a meeting at Channel 26.
It’s a bit scary looking at folks this close to the shoot day.
