FAQ’s
[1] DO I HAVE TO SHOW UP ON SATURDAY AT 1PM?
NO! Being first in line does not give you any advantages. You can show up ANYTIME during the Casting Calls on Saturday OR Sunday between 1pm and 6pm and we will register you and take your information & photo.

[2] SHOULD I BRING A PHOTO/HEADSHOT/RESUME TO THE CASTING CALL?

We will take a photo there, but it’s always a good idea to bring a recent photo — and it should go without saying that if you are an actor you should ALWAYS bring your headshot AND resume, or three, to any and every casting call/audition.

Film Crew in Concord for Jason Sudeikis Movie – Entertainment – Concord, MA Patch.

NeHollywood.com Nice to see Hollywood back in Concord! Book stores are becoming a great backdrop for more films..Like Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in You Got Mail..On the other hand its to bad that Maine doesn’t offer those film tax incentives like its supposed to in order to lure Hollywood into Maine…What a shame! Maine has alot of great book stores and of course locations..Thank your lame ass Governor Paul LePage for this movie failure.
