You Matter More Than You Know/Showing Up is Part of the Job

Created by HBG Casting LLC, Modified on Mon, 24 Mar at 11:47 AM by HBG Casting LLC

You might think you’re just “one of many,” but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Every actor is chosen with purpose. Whether it’s 1 or 100 people in a scene, each one is essential.


A “busy park” or “bustling restaurant” only feels real because you’re in it.

Your presence completes the story.


When you’re booked, that’s a job — and showing up is the first step in being a professional.


 If you don’t show up and don’t let us know in advance, the production marks you as a No-Show.

We get a call. We scramble to replace you. And the production loses the exact person they wanted — you.


You are not “just background.” You’re part of the storytelling. You were handpicked.


Both the production and HBG Casting are counting on you.


We follow a “Three Strikes, You’re Out” policy before removing talent from our database.


We understand — life happens. But when there’s no communication, it affects everyone and creates unnecessary stress and disappointment on set.
