Debatable Callback

Nov 29th, 2008 by Alan Yu

So I auditioned for a part on Thursday and interestingly enough I got an e-mail stating how they would like to see me for a callback next week on the same day that evening. In the e-mail, they also indicate that they have auditioned a lot of other great people as well.

Funny thing is that I see that they are continuously advertising for an actor to play that very same role too which kind of makes me question how genuine the callback really is. An interesting thing for myself too, all of the parts I have gotten thus far always came from the first audition.

My usual thought is that a callback means they think you can act but they are not quite sure which person to go with in terms of one’s look. In this case though, it just seems a bit too weird to go for a callback when they are still advertising to audition people for the very first time.
