Acting in Los Angeles: what to expect

Los Angeles remains the deepest casting market in the world - studio features, network and streaming television, commercials, and new media shoot here every week of the year. Competition is real, but so is volume: background, commercial, and non-union work casts continuously, and productions regularly look for fresh faces without representation.

Where productions film
Studio stages, downtown exteriors, and residential neighborhoods used as stand-ins for anywhere in the country.
Who gets cast
Everyday faces of every age and background - most local calls do not require credits or representation.
Typical pay
Background work commonly pays a day rate; principal commercial roles pay a session fee plus usage.
How fast it moves
Rush calls can close within 48 hours, so a complete profile lets you submit the moment a role appears.
