With the SAG-AFTRA strike ending, Central Casting is excited to cast our Background Actors in our movies and TV shows. We are busy preparing for filming to ramp up. As our shows return to production, we will reach out with availability inquiries and post to our Jobs page. Until then, we recommend updating your profile and photos with your current look and sizes so our Casting Directors have your accurate information when considering you for work. We can’t wait to get you back on set!

***CALLING ALL TALENT in BATON ROUGE****
Want to SIGN UP with us for PAID background (movie extra) work, but can't make it to our office in New Orleans?
RSVP to Onboard with us on August 15th at the East Baton Rouge Main Library Branch on Goodwood.
Reservations are required, as space is limited.
Reserve now at www.centralcasting.com/br/
Appointments are every 15 minutes from 1:00pm - 5:30pm
This is a one-time only event, open to NEW talent who have not yet registered with us.
WHY ONBOARD NOW?
Most productions like to have their stand-ins, photo doubles, and some featured background roles selected before they even begin filming. If you are fully onboarded and active in our casting platform, the casting directors will be able to see your profile and send you messages for availability on future productions.
When you onboard with Central Casting, all of your employment paperwork is kept on file. This means less paperwork to fill out on set resulting in a quicker check in and smoother payment process.
WHAT DO I BRING TO MY ONBOARDING APPOINTMENT?
By federal law, you must present your original and unexpired I-9 documentation to your scheduled session. We cannot take copies, photos, or receipts of documents.
Examples of these documents can be found on our website here: www.centralcasting.com/i-9-documentation/
PLEASE NOTE:
- Everyone (including MINORS), must have valid photo ID. If choosing identification from List B, it MUST have a nondetachable photo of the person onboarding, contained within the document. Meaning, the photo cannot be stapled, glued, laminated, or taped onto the document.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Dress in your personal style, or how you want the casting directors to see you. We will take your headshot and full-length photo on our white backdrop, so refrain from wearing full white or cream. No logos or patterns that would detract from your face.
Reserve your spot!
