Well... That's a tad more credit than the situation deserves. But... What's an acting blog without a little drama, right? (yuck - barf-bags are in the pocket of the seat-back in front of you).

What to wear? What to wear? - The Commercial Callback
I was just about to get started on the follow-up to What To Wear? What To Wear? and tell everyone what I've been told to wear to a call-back. But just before I did, I went to my very own callback and and had a bomb dropped on me.

What to wear? What to wear? - Casual Dress
As with the headshot industry, what one wears to an audition is another changing landscape an actor strolls upon and should be a question revisited frequently. But, for our purposes today (August 27th, 2009) we'll focus on what's appropriate now.
I received a few calls this week for on-camera, commercial auditions. The character description - as per usual - was vague, vague, vague. What's more, the dress for said characters was noted as "casual". Oh, vague-ty! How I hate thee!! So, of course, being a bit of a fashion victim, a few of the many questions that popped into my head were these:
- Casual as in what I wear to hang around my house?
- Casual as in, what I'd wear on a third date (that's a little joke for UCB students who studied with Gill Ozeri) - whatever that means?
- Casual as in what I might wear to casual-day at work if I worked in a corporate environment?
- Casual as in the Gap or J Crew?
- Casual as in boring??
