An Outside Opportunity...

For those of you interested in paid film opportunities, here's a posting from a local casting firm for some upcoming projects (NOTE: This is a reach-out from a non-PPS firm, and one with whom I do not have a prior working relationship...do your own diligence and research before participating in any program or sharing information):

'We’re hoping that you can help spread the word about our auditions - if any of your students are interested, they can submit at www.smhcasting.com/now-casting or you can forward them the info below:

WHAT: We need kids aged 8 months - 18 years to audition for our shows


WHY: We’re casting a tv show for HBO and a movie starring Alison Brie (Community, GLOW)
