Audition Protocol  listed below. Please read this.


Please do NOT schedule an audition if you are outside of driving distance.
We accept auditions from actors located in ME, PA,VT, NH, NY, NJ, CT, RI,  MA ONLY!



1. Send us a head shot and resume.

We need to know what you look like currently and what you have done.

2. Scour the site for more info BEFORE calling.

This site is designed to communicate.
Most of your questions are answered here.
Please do not call just out of impatience.

  

3. Call the office. Let us know what your availability is. Schedule an audition.

Sending in a head shot is often NOT enough. If you like the concept.
Make a phone call to the office and let us know when we can see you.

4. Print out the directions to the studio and the cell phone numbers.

If you are running late call us on the cell phone.

5. Do your best. Don't bring anyone else to a shoot. Prepare a monologue.

Family and friends are distracting to you and the crew.
You should be performing for us without distraction.


The only exception is if you have a friend who is ALSO auditioning or willing to help work with the crew.
 
If you feel you need someone close at hand for security during auditions.
They can come in and meet us but then they will have to go to a restaurant or wait in the car. This is YOUR audition or role. You should have a 1-3 minute monologue prepared for an audition. We want something entertaining for you to ACT not read. 

6. If you are selected for a speaking role. Be on time. Communicate!

Please don't be late to your shoot dates. If you are running late call us.
We do understand that sometimes things happen beyond your control.
Just let us know what is going on.

7. Look at the website. Ask what to wear before a shoot..

The web site is updated about every two weeks. Read it. It is your job to find out when you are needed. Call us if you have scheduling conflicts ahead of time. Ask us if there is any additional preparation needed on your end.( This could be as simple as wearing dark colors or bringing sandals.)

8. KEEP YOUR COMMITMENT!!!!

Once you are cast. You can NOT back out without our agreement. We understand serious issues arise, but we can reschedule around most of them. Again read the contract. It costs time and money to schedule, costume, shoot, and feed this cast and crew. We are investing this time and money in YOU. From audition till end. So please be considerate of us and your fellow actors. If you don't we WILL take legal action.
 

We are a nice bunch. We will try to make your experience making " Totem " a fun and rewarding one. There are many benefits to being involved. The foremost being your first hand experience of making a good movie that has an EXCELLENT chance of getting distributed around the world.

So.. If you are serious about acting. Please follow these steps and we can begin making something beautiful that will outlast all of us.
