DMV Actors: Enhance Your Acting Reel
Casting sites like ActorsAccess.com and CastingNetworks.com welcome actors of all skill levels and experience. So, every submission is a competition against a whole world of talent. You will need high-quality media to stand out, but that is a challenge for actors without experience or footage from previous projects. That’s where we can help.
We create unique, professionally produced scenes that showcase your strengths as an actor. We tailor scenes to genre and available locations, so casting directors no longer have to imagine you in their project. They can see it for themselves!
As a bonus, using House Cat Creative for Acting Services gives you a chance to work with award-winning writer/director R Cadell Cook. There’s no better way to get on his radar when he’s casting for his next project.
Before We Start
Before we talk, you’ll need to:
know what narrative genre you want to highlight (drama, comedy)
know what strengths you want to highlight in the scene
have a scene partner, preferably another actor who also needs to enhance their reel (a scene partner can be provided for a fee)
have a location for us to film the scene and permission (a location can be provided for a fee)
Planning
When you’re ready, schedule a call to:
discuss genre, scene partner, strengths, location
send pictures of the actors and the filming location
allow up to 7 days for the creation of the original 1-3 page script and time for actors to prepare
rehearse and be off-book with your scene partner
schedule filming date & time
Filming
Let’s Do This!
Reminder: both actors must be completely off-book and ready to perform.
Plan for 4-6 hours. We are essentially producing a short film. Things take time.
Must come camera-ready, we do not provide makeup or wardrobe services for actor reels.
Allow 7-10 days for post production
