2/2
The next conflict is sheer scheduling for the film. I work two jobs to
pursue this dream. The actors all have jobs to chase their dream. And
here is another truth about indie film-making. The more desirable and
talented the actor. The less they will be available. Seems obvious
right?
But countless directors including myself still make the
mistake/hope of casting all the best actors they can for the film. But
these great actors are also working on numerous films and plays. So
think twice when choosing actors for smaller parts. Do you really want
to go through scheduling nightmares for the character that has six
lines. No you don't trust me. Go with the good actor who is availability
is way better and make them great. It is your job.
The dirty truth is
sometimes the best person for the role just isn't an option. Learn to
deal and move on.
