Disney live-action series pilot 'Austin & Ally' holding auditions for lead roles


It's a Laugh Productions is currently in pre-production on a brand new teen sitcom pilot for Disney Channel titled "Austin & Ally". The show centers around two young teens with very different personalities who both have musical ambitions, and end up with a unique relationship between them.

The two lead actors being cast are a male of any ethnicity, early teens, who is a very good singer - and an attractive female of any ethnicity, early teens, who can preferably sing and play the piano. And because this is a sitcom, both actors should also have very strong comedy skills. Other series regular roles to be cast are the best friends of both Austin and Ally.

The show will be a filmized videotape multi-camera live-action teen sitcom. Filmizing is a process that makes video productions seem to have been shot on film. Several Disney Channel and Disney XD sitcoms are shot using filmized videotape, including "Sonny with a Chance," "Shake It Up," "Good Luck Charlie," and the upcoming "Wasabi Warriors" among others.

Kevin Kopelow and Heath Seifert will produce and wrote the pilot. They both have collaborated as writers/producers of the Disney Channel sitcoms "Sonny with a Chance," and "Jonas". Kopelow and Seifert have also just signed a deal with Disney for their screenplay "The Most Annoying Man in the World", which will be produced by Andy Fickman's Oops Doughnuts Productions.

Shooting on "Austin & Ally" begins mid-February, 2011. The series is under AFTRA contract and will be shot in Los Angeles at Hollywood Center Studios. This casting call has gone out nationally, and also to Vancouver and Toronto.
