The Truth About Casting Director Advice No One Talks About

Описание: After 20 years in Hollywood, I realized most casting director advice was keeping me small. In this video, I share how I broke free from fear-based “don’t do” lists, stopped trying to please casting directors, and started trusting my instincts again.

This isn’t a rant — it’s a revelation about actor autonomy, creative freedom, and redefining what success means in today’s self-tape era.
🎭 Whether you’re an actor tired of conflicting notes or someone rebuilding confidence in your artistry, this one’s for you.

What’s the worst advice you’ve heard from a casting director, that caused analysis paralysis?
