Disney ABC Television Group Casting Project auditions for Los Angeles Talent Showcase
Posted by Craze Agency on Wednesday, June 8, 2011
Disney ABC
Television Group’s highly coveted Casting Project is accepting headshots and
resumes for consideration to audition for the ABC Talent Showcase. Participants
for each talent showcase must be at least 18 years old. Previous acting
experience or training is required of all, but professional representation is
not necessary.
The Casting Project identifies and develops culturally and ethnically diverse talent and actors with disabilities by having a talent showcase each year in Los Angeles. Selected participants perform one-act scenes for casting directors, talent agents, managers and other industry professionals. The actors chosen work with veteran directors for an intensive, three-week rehearsal process in preparation for the showcase.
The showcase features actors performing their one-act vignettes for invited casting directors, talent agents, managers and other industry professionals. Selected participants will be assigned a network executive from the Casting Department who will act as their mentor for one year. Additionally, participants will have access to various ABC and ABC Studios executives.
Various workshops also will be scheduled throughout the year for the actors to further hone their craft. As a direct result of the Casting Project, 90% of ABC Talent Showcase actors have either auditioned for, or were cast as, a series regular, recurring or guest role on primetime and/or daytime television, as well as being cast in film and commercial roles. What’s more, 60% have either met or signed with agents.
