Auditions and Intimacy

Audition calls are the Actors first glance into what they may audition for. It's important to not only have clear information listed in the Audition Breakdown, but information at the audition itself.

Can you have the Actors engage in any intimate moments in the audition process? This consultation will help you determine Best Practices around Intimacy and Auditions.

Intimacy and Auditions/Callbacks: For Actors
