How are our auditions different?  First of all, our auditions are done in our studios not in an audition room.  Our auditions are recorded at air quality level on our Class A Discrete Neves and Neuman Microphones.  Because we are a casting service, we cast the right voices for the part, and we pair the right voices together.  When a talent agent casts, they limit the audition to the voices they represent.  We work with all the talent in Chicago and pair voices that are right.  Another major difference is our casting information gathering process.  We know how to ask questions to narrow the search so we can quickly and efficiently find the right voice.  We don’t like wasting your time or money; our objective is to cast your commercial by finding exactly what you’re looking for in a minimum amount of time.  We encourage Creatives to be involved in the casting process; and the good news is they don’t have to be in our studios to do it.  At no additional cost, we can patch Creatives into our casting sessions no matter where they are so we can shape the casting session around their input.  Our casting sessions are directed by directors with the experience of thousands of commercials behind them.  We know how to get a great performance out of the talent.
