As I get casting info for feature films in the Austin, Texas area I will share it for both multi-million Hollywood films and micro-budget indies; both feature films and shorts. This is a way to allow film production companies, casting agencies, and independent producers to connect with actors and crew. I am a middle school teacher and enjoy doing film work in the summer and in my free time during the school year. This list has helped many already. If you know of any casting sessions (yours or others) please e-mail me with all the pertinent info, including time, location, pay (if any), etc. and an e-mail and/or contact phone number. I hope that all info I pass on is reliable and plan to post only info that I trust.

If you wish to post a casting/crew call, please include as much as the following as possible and email to me (or the list) capydan@academicplanet.com and capydan@yahoo.com

1) the title of the project (a working title, if need be)
2) whether it is a short or feature
3) a one or two sentence synopsis
4) a breakdown of the characters that will be cast (as much detail as you like, the more detail you can provide, the better for your actors)
5) is the project paid; if so, is it deferred or paid at the time of shooting.
6) will meal(s) will be provided
7) are crew members needed
8) time/location of auditions (including city)

11) Intended distribution: direct to video, cable, theatrical, cable access, internet, cd/dvd, in-house industrial, point of sale industrial, director's reel, trailer, festival circuit
