My experience at my first casting call/ Seeking Representation

So on Tuesday January 11^th, 2011 I went on my first seeking representation call. The company was called Orange Model Management Inc. Located at 111 peter street Toronto Ontario.  When I went to the agency, I’m not going to lie, I was nervous. It’s because I never did something like this before.  I didn’t know what to expect or how they would react in front of me. He, I didn’t even know if they were legit or not. So as I walked into the interview, the male greeted with respect and told me blow by blow on how this industry really was. He told me because I had no experience, it was hard for someone to just get jobs like that. Personally, when he was telling me all of this, I was surprised. I thought that agencies wanted people to get in and they just wanted to take your money, but I was quite mistaken.  This is how I knew he was legit. For someone to come out and say that, honestly, the competition is hard, and it’s totally up to you to join, made me want to learn more. Maybe it was just reverse psychology, but whatever it was, it worked on me.  After the interview, he made me audition. He told me to read a couple of lines, and examined me from head to toe. He checked everything from my neck size to my shoe size. He also checked my teeth to see if they were workable.  All In all, my experience at my first seeking representation was really fun. I got to learn a lot more about the industry and learned how to communicate with industry people. Oh and you never know, I might just sign with Orange Models, and become a star.
