Teen Conservatory: On-Camera Casting Intensive

Led by professional casting director, Karyn Casl, this hands-on elective gives teen actors an inside look at the casting process for both theater and film. Students learn on-camera audition technique, how to present themselves confidently in the room, and how to make quick, specific adjustments from direction. The class covers everything from self-tapes and slates to cold reads and callback etiquette. Through mock auditions and individualized feedback, students gain valuable insight into what casting professionals look for—building confidence, skill, and professionalism for real-world auditions.
