Are You Ready?

After the two casting agencies, we were on our way to Bad Robot and Bruckheimer Productions. Two places, very close together. Bad Robot is J.J Abrams’s production company. The sign “are you ready?” is on the door to the office. There was no door bell or anything like that so i put some post cards through the door and some on the cars in the back.

At Bruckheimer Productions, there was no door. Just a nice security guard at a large gate who took my postcard.

Casting Director Agency

Later that day we visited one more casting agency… Bluewater Ranch Casting, the office of Mindy Marin to drop off cards. The office was really cute… it was in the back and it looked like a litlle farmhouse. Here is a picture of Rachel Bilson coming out of the office (not on the same day).

L.A. Day 1 continues: Sony

So after the trip to Sony i scratched all the big studios off the visit list, except for Universal which i will tell you about later.

We then went to Santa Monica area where we went to casting agency. It wasn’t until then that i realized my ideal plan of dropping off postcards for entertainment people might need to be modified. I was in the lobby of the building where the mail boxes were and saw a junk mail box full of actors postcards. 🙁 Yikes.

The casting agency did not put their name on the mail box or on their door either.

I didn’t realize the lengths they wanted to keep actors from dropping off submissions. That realization left me wondering if my trip was even going to be worth it.
