The brilliant David Bennie from ERM Stars loved his recent experience in The Kayos Virtual Studio.
Having worked hard to make online castings efficient, and set up to help talent look their best, we were thrilled with his feedback: "It's just very stress free," he said. "There's no big inconvenience, and it takes the stress out of casting because you're not sitting in a long line getting impatient and worrying."
"Among many positives, the big plus is that I live quite far out of town, so driving in for castings is now off the table completely."
The Virtual Studio lets talent like Jenna Upton from Hey Judes Model Management join us from anywhere in the world. "Among many positives, the big, big plus is that I live quite far out of town, so driving in for castings is now off the table completely," she said. We're so glad that online remote castings can keep actors like Jenna on the table, even if not in the room!
"It felt like I was stepping into an actual studio. I could do this for the rest of the year."
Gifted actress Vinita Petrus at Ice Artistes had only positive things to say about her experience in The Kayos Virtual Studio. She described the advantage of our casting directors directing her online performance - unlike traditional self tapes, where there's no one to guide you with your performance:
"Getting in to the casting process is seamless through virtual casting...with self tapes, I get critical of myself, so I do a couple of takes. [With The Kayos Virtual Studio], the casting director can give me the nod and tell me what works and what doesn't, which really helps me. So there are more positives than negatives."
