Is the Casting System in the Commercial Industry Broken?

Host: @mrjgraham

Guests: @lilihidge_x, @erinjardine1 and @daxocallaghan

It's been a while but we are back! We wanted to have a discussion on the state of the dance industry and particularly the casting system within the Commercial industry so invited @lilihodge_x and @erinjardine1 of @dancersnetworkuk on to speak with us. These 2 along with the team at DN have worked and fought for better treatment and rates of pay for dancers as well as being very successful performers in their own careers too. Joining on the pod is one of the co-owners of Base Studios, @daxocallaghan. Dax has been part of the entertainment industry for many years now and has seen it from multiple viewpoints as a performer, recording artist, choreographer and creative director. It's also a nice way to mark Base's 4th birthday as we hear about what it was like founding a studio and facing the challenges of the pandemic. We originally planned a conversation off the back of the Superbowl controversy in the USA knowing that there are identical issues here with big sporting events. However it turned more into an exploration of the contrasts between the TV, Film and Theatre casting processes and the Commercial industry process and the big differences between them. We look at the structures and the potential conflicts of interest and talk about changes that could and probably should be made. We speak about the Sole Representation model and how that would most likely be more beneficial for dancers and lead to more auditions. And we talk about the need for a structural and cultural reset when it comes to the commercial industry. All this and the conversation could have continued for far longer! This is definitely a topic worth revisiting but hopefully there is some good information being shared and it sparks further conversations and eventual change for the better🤞
