Best Answer

In order to become a casting director, one needs to have excellent communication and organizational skills, great interpersonal skills and deep knowledge of the motion picture industry. One's chances of being hired as a casting director are increased though not guaranteed by one's having a degree from a college of theatrical arts.

Where do you audition for Maximum Ride?

The question is not where but to whom. You need to audition to the casting director for the movie and you have to be serious about the movie to audition. They wont pick you unless you have the criteria and usually a agent. I am not trying to discurouge you but you need to know some things. You will need 2 headshots and a resume. You need to be able to work in wantever country they are filming it in, if it is filmed in either Canada or the USA. You need to be able to get to where ever they hold the call backs within the day or two days they tell you they need you there. THEY WILL NOT PAY TO FLY YOU OUT OR STAY IN THE TOWN THEY ARE FILMING IN! So you need to have the money or please dont waste the casting directors time. The casting director has not been hired yet so there is currently no auditions or cast. Catherine Hardwicke is the director and do not send your auditions to her or the production companies because they will end up in the garbage.
