Casting Wants You to Win (VCC Ep 44)

Voice Over Casting Corner – Episode 44: Casting Wants You to Win In this episode, Kelly Moscinski and Kathryn Horan from The Voicecaster tackle one of the biggest misconceptions in the voiceover world: that casting directors are working against you. Spoiler — they're not. They're rooting for you every time they open your audition. What we cover: The "us vs. them" myth – Why actors feel like casting is against them, and why that couldn't be further from the truth Silence isn't rejection – With 500–1,000 submissions per project, why casting can't respond to every audition — and what that silence actually means When you win, we win – How booking actors makes casting directors look good to their clients, creating a true win-win relationship The long game – Why casting and agents keep submitting actors who haven't booked in a year or more, and why consistency matters more than individual bookings Submit and release – The mindset shift that can transform how you approach every audition Auditions as opportunities – Reframing the competitive mindset into one of possibility Key takeaways: Not booking doesn't mean anyone disliked your audition — it just means you weren't the right fit for that specific project Clients do remember voices they've loved over years, and that persistence pays off Consistency is what casting directors notice and remember most Focus on your connection to the script, trust your instincts, and let go of expectations for feedback About The Voicecaster: The country's first and oldest voiceover casting house, established in 1975.
