Casting Slate

It used to be that the only way for most actors to find work or even representation was to provide an Actor Reel. But it's difficult to put an Actor Reel together if you're new to the business or don't have enough material to put in it.

That's where the Casting Slate comes in. A Casting Slate is a way for the agent or casting director to get an idea of who the actor is, his/her comfort level in front of a camera, physicality, as well as personality.

Why Use Lambert Studios?

Most other slate-makers use sub-standard equipment, poor lighting, and pay little attention to audio by utilizing improper microphone placement or the camera's built-in microphone leading to poor audio and overall production quality.

We have assembled the right blend of audio and video equipment as well as editing software to create eye-popping Casting Slates that rival other larger, more expensive operations in terms of production value.

Video Resumé...

You don't have to be an actor to shoot a Casting Slate. Video resumés are great for job-seekers. Sure, you could shoot it at home with your webcam. But then it would look like you shot it at home with your webcam. We'll give you a professional look and sound that will make your video resumé stand out.

The Basic Slate...

The Basic Slate is you against a digital backdrop of your choice. Large, animated text will display your name at the beginning and end of the slate. At only $65, this service rivals the production quality of larger slate-makers that charge over three times that amount!

Casting Slate Premiere

With our new Casting Slate Premiere service, now your slate will really pop as we place you on one of our 20 "virtual sets" and drop in headshots or Actor Reel footage onto a video panel! This production service is a bargain at only $125. Check out this example...

The Process...

Come into the studio camera-ready and it's okay to bring two or three outfits to try. Just don't wear anything green. (The top half is more important than the bottom.) The session will last approximately half an hour to an hour. After the session, I will edit your best responses into a 1-minute video. (Please make note of our cancellation policy.)

General Notes...

  • Talk to the camera.
  • Always answer in a complete sentence - the viewer will not hear the interview questions.
  • You may want to prepare a short song, monologue, or anything you want to show off about yourself.
  • Have a good time, relax and above all - SMILE!
