I Booked a Commercial!

I'm so excited, I submitted for a commercial and so many times I wonder if the casting people really look at everyone. Apparently, they do! The whole process can be somewhat mysterious. Basically since everything is electronic, you can submit yourself or your agent can submit you. And if they like what they see and your experience, they will call you in to audition.

It's rare to go directly to a callback, although I have had a few of those too. But with this job, I submitted yesterday. This evening I received a text message that I am hired for this commercial. No audition, either! Yes, I'm not really fond of auditions. I'm a good actress, I really am! Once I understudied for this gal. She had to work on a SAG project and couldn't do her play. I was hired, and learned 13 pages of dialog, and her blocking in 2 days. I performed beautifully. So I can act, I just don't audition that great.

So, even though this is a non union job, I can still do it because I haven't joined SAG yet! It's a nice feeling to be wanted again!
