I am goning to send my headshot and resume to 2 disney casting for camp rock 2 and welcome to mollywood. I do have a freelance agent. Stanley Kaplan talent. Shouls I put them on my resume or my address. I have never gone on an audition from them and never heard from them. Whats best to do in my situation. will disney think its better i have an agent or will they toss me asisde if they don't see the representation. Then again they may ask me to audition through stanley kaplan and I may never hear about it. Please secret agent man tell me what to do.

I don't know what advice SAM would offer, but casting notices go cold extremely fast, so in the interim -- here's my take.

Listing an agent is always better than not.

Not only does this give you immediate credibility, but most CD's will simply disregard headshots and resumes from unrepresented talent. In fact, unless submitted by an agent, your unsolicited materials will no doubt be headed directly for the trash. You should have Kaplan submit you if at all possible. Don't be shy about calling an agent directly to submit you for a specific role that you feel you're "right" for. Sometimes new talent gets largely overlooked, and they may even appreciate your initiative.

There have been many posts regarding Stanley's business acumen (or lack of it) on this board, but despite his many shortcomings, any representation is better than none. He's still managed to get lots of new talent their first bookings, in spite of his legendary idiosyncrasies.

In any case, if Disney does request you, believe me, Kaplan will contact you. Actors are the "meal tickets" for agents, without you they're of of business. At best, if you're called in and do well, who knows? You might go right to the top of the class!

P.S. - For security reasons, NEVER put your address on your resume. An email address or cell number is sufficient.

“Whatever works.”

I'm going to agree with Robert.

Also, these projects are being cast mostly here in LA and they're not looking for actors with no credits who are represented by dubious agents. Disney wants the best of the best so they can keep this franchise alive. The odds of them even responding to your submission - agent or not - are slim to none and Slim just left town.

Here's my advice. Forget about these projects. An acting career is a long term journey and it's not based on any particular movie. You need to start building up credits and experience. Then you need to find decent representation or management. That way, you'll be ready when they start casting Camp Rock Part 3!

Good luck!
