CSA GUIDELINES FOR CASTING DIRECTORS TEACHING WORKSHOPS

At various times it has been brought up by various anonymous writers on my blog, that there may be some dodgy ethics involved with a casting director teaching workshops. The suspicion seems to be that actors might be paying to get cast. I have always assured actors that I am wearing a slightly different hat while teaching and that the workshops are purely educational.

Since there are many casting directors who teach workshops, CSA (Casting Society of America) of which I am a member, has an official policy for casting workshops. Please click here.

So from now on I will ask all participants of my classes to read and agree to these guidelines before taking my classes so that everything is %100 clear.
