Why I Accepted a Local Hire Audition That Would Pay Me Less

Why I Said Yes To An Audition That Pays Me Way Less

I just accepted an audition where I’ll be earning a lot less money than usual — no per diem, mileage/toll reimbursements, hotel accommodations, and a five-hour drive each way. Here’s why I said yes anyway.

IN THIS VIDEO YOU WILL LEARN:

✅ Why SAG scale wasn’t the deciding factor for me on this job
✅ The two completely different kinds of “local hire” — and why one can disqualify you before you even audition
✅ How this audition reconnected me with a casting director I hadn’t read for in years
✅ Why work sometimes leads to more work, even when the pay doesn’t match

I LOVE HEARING FROM MY ACTING FAMILY ❤️
