Another great place to find free auditions is craiglist the popular website. You can go to the jobs section which has a TV and video jobs subsection. Simply go in there and you can look at many available casting calls and auditions. The great thing about Craigslist is that new casting calls and auditions are posted daily.

Go into your favorite search engine like MSN, Yahoo, Bing, or Google and type in Free Auditions or Free Casting calls or something similar, you will be presented with pages and pages full of websites with casting information. The only thing that annoyed me was that many of these pages have horrible interface that are confusing to the user. I had to wade through many pages to find good information. It is free, so I can’t really complain.

Many business are starting to use popular social media sites such as Youtube, Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter to stay in touch with there customers. How does this help you in finding free auditions you ass. Well many casting companies that post casting calls and audition are also on these social media sites. Many of them post many of the free auditions and casting calls, so if you have added them you will get them as soon as they are sent out! Definitely a great way to always have current information on upcoming auditions.

Now you have all the information to find free auditions. Next you gotta learn how to apply to them. Before you even thinking of applying for casting calls or auditions make sure that you have a resume and cover letter made that showcases your experience in acting. First impressions are important and these documents are the first thing a casting director will see, so make sure that they are grammatical error free. You always want to have professional photos of yourself especially your face, because many casting directors want head shots. You do not want to skimp on any of these things, so even pay someone if you have to get an excellent resume, cover letter, and photos.

My last tidbit I want to share with you does not actually tell you how to get free auditions, but is something you may want to consider nonetheless. It is considering getting an agent. Now you don’t pay an agent to find you auditions or casting calls, but you do give him a portion of what you earn. Now this may sound undesirable, but a good agent will keep you working. So it’s definitely something to at least consider, but even if you don’t get one you now know where to find free auditions.
