AIP035 | 5 Reasons Casting Directors Should Be Happy to See Workshops Go - with Anne DeAcetis

The Acting Income Podcast with Ben Hauck

Show Notes: http://actingincome.com/episode35

Actress and writer Anne DeAcetis is a guest contributor for this episode, reading from her essay on Medium.com which lists five reasons why casting directors should happily play a part in the disappearance of casting director workshops.

Host Ben Hauck shares introductory content that motivated Anne's piece -- namely, an article from The Hollywood Reporter on the prevalence of casting director workshops notoriously referred to as "pay-to-plays," the subsequent dismissal of a prominent casting director who has run casting director workshops, and a press release from the Casting Society of America establishing a Workshop Committee to address the standards of these workshops.
