The auditions for the exhibition games are very common, and often you can can tell immediately if the call is legitimate or not. Mention if the popular game and leads you to the official website with many rules and regulations, and you know it's the real thing.
Other Castings can be a little ambiguous. They appear on sites like Craigslist or spread all over the social media circles, there are not a ton of information for you to continue. If you apply for these programs? I've read the signs of a scam, so you know that the casting be avoided.
1 They ask you for money
This is the biggest red flag that you'll ever see casting. If it is not mentioned, because you have to pay any money at all for some reason, this is not the real thing. Games give away money, and they do not require applicants to pay to play. There are cases in which, if you had displayed in the game that is in another state, must pay their own travel expenses, but such details are in the casting process later, and not through an open invitation to the candidates.
2 This is a group trip
There are a few lousy organizations trying to recruit people to travel in large groups to participate to get in a game show hoping to play some of them on stage. The most targeted in this scenario game show the price is right and make a deal, because both shows invite to play the public. There are a few reasons why this scandal is (to take a cut of all revenue, or suspect to advertise organization), but make no mistake, this is a scam. Some offers do not ask for the game, the teams, to examine together, but in these cases, teams have a prior relationship between the two.
3 no contact name or membership
The game can show, Casting, are very vague in nature, especially when it is trying a new display driver, vote for it. Sometimes these ads are legitimate-looking fish, but often they are not. If affiliate Casting with any person, in any case, by helping their names in the declaration, and will be highlighted by this name. Or you can get something like "From the makers of Deal or No Deal ..." - which nearly always illegal. Those who want to avoid are those that have no names mentioned, whether the absence of the names of individuals, companies, products, or networks. Attempt any kind of detail that would be checked. If there is enough of the facts are likely to determine who was behind the ad, it is probably true. Otherwise, click here.
And some of the "types" Targeting 4
It is not always a red flag, but it often. If you're wondering, casting for models play young, beautiful bikini contest, you might want to question. It seemed to devout this declaration some time ago, attractive, single women ask - it was a scam. The thing to see is the kind (s) of people who ask him. Preferable in some cases to bring a favorite game, wearing some types of candidates for the consequences of topics, such as military personnel or twins or people, the leopard print. Although usually when a call of such is the real, recognized as the game itself.
5 announcement is the first
Most game shows are moving pretty fast to shoot casting (unless they shoot a pilot and wait to see if he chooses to appear, but that's another topic). Throw Sometimes the date of the application period will include, but are often overlooked them. If you place an ad and see still for several weeks (or months) later active, it is either outdated or a scam. And if you see see the same ad over and over again, it is unlikely to be true.
6 site has no information
Not all calls casting lead you to a website on the Internet for more information, but for those who do not, you need to do a bit of investigation before you secure it to be real. The location must be on the contact page with details of where the company is at least. Even better, there will be some sections worked with the rules and guidelines for the participation of every show, and ejected, and e-mail address and / or phone number for these questions.
Banner is not surprising that refers to the wrong casting
A comment I often hear from people who is going to apply for the deals of the game that many of the castings with the free service, usually Gmail and e-mail address. They believe that this shows that the call is not legitimate. In fact, the opposite is true.
Prefer the casting agents, use e-mail addresses can be discarded, as offered by Google, if you set the new game shows. Why? Because he did not send their contact information to all over the place (like here for instance!) Ensure that potential candidates can get their applications. Casting process has been completed, the e-mail address can be ignored or is closed. In this way, the staff does not have the cast to the constant barrage of questions or problems long face after the show has already been filmed.
