Posted 3/12/2008 11:42:10 AM | | | The staff received the casting call below today requesting we place the "Audition" on our web site. Well we are going to put it on our web site but not in the manner they expected.... We do not list calls that require any kind of fee to apply. We have emailed the person back for an explanation as to why they are charging, to date no response. This is highly irregular and unacceptable. Does anyone know or had any contact with this company? We have omitted the mailing and email address to protect the guilty... lol You should never pay for a job! The company below appears to have something else going on here other than a real casting call????? Rule of thumb in this industry, is "NEVER" pay anyone to audition for anything! If they ask for money, no matter how small the amount, you need to know the reasons why..... and sometimes they give you a good reason but in the end it no longer becomes an audition. It becomes a sales pitch. THE EFM STAFF ------------------- florida/jacksonville/dvd State: FL
