CGiii Comment

A grubby casting...sadly, rife! Realistically done.

This serves as a powerful warning...any casting that requires nudity should be explained beforehand. A legitimate casting never involves only one person [with a camera]. If you find yourself in this situation: Leave, there is no job!


Watch...

The(ir) Blurb...

"Slate for me" realistically illustrates how a young actor in a casting starts reading a script and begins to be pressured to take strange actions, such as removing his shirt. As the casting director tells the actor that it's all in the script and that perhaps he didn't read it, using guilt and the suggestion of lack of commitment as a way to make the actor comply, viewers can see how a young man filled with hopes and committed to doing a good job in casting is suddenly taken over by a sense of despair, shame, and paralyzing confusion.
