Episode 14: Remote Does Not Mean Invisible: Matt Young on Regional Acting, Self-Tapes and Building Your Own Path
In Episode 14 of Onstage: Casting Call, David Greenwood OAM and Brian Coppock are joined by actor, acting coach, writer, director and choreographer Matt Young for a practical and inspiring conversation about sustaining a serious performing arts career from regional and remote Australia. Matt has worked across stage, screen, touring productions, teaching and regional screen development. Now based between Blackall, Brisbane and Fiji, he brings a valuable perspective on what it really takes to stay connected to the industry when you are not living near the major casting rooms. This episode explores regional access, self-tapes, capital-city bias, performer discipline, respectful storytelling, and the mindset shift from waiting to be chosen to building meaningful creative opportunities from where you are. For performers in Geelong, regional Victoria, Outback Queensland, New Zealand, Fiji or anywhere outside the major industry hubs, this conversation is a reminder that your postcode is not your ceiling. Distance does not cancel ambition, but it does demand strategy, preparation and strong professional habits.

Episode 13: Is AI Blocking Your Next Audition?
Is AI already changing the way performers are seen by casting directors, producers and agencies? Find the resume tool at www.centrestageagency.org.au/#resume In this episode of Onstage: Casting Call, David Greenwood OAM explores one of the industry’s growing taboo topics: how digital casting platforms, searchable profiles, resume filters and AI-assisted tools may affect whether performers are seen, shortlisted or overlooked. This is not about fear. It is about preparation. David unpacks why your performing arts resume is no longer just admin, why unclear credits and vague skills can work against you, and why performers need materials that are current, honest, searchable and easy to understand. The episode also includes a short anonymous perspective from a casting director on why clarity matters when reviewing high-volume submissions. CentreStage Agency has created a free resume feedback tool to help performers review and improve their industry materials.

David and Brian discuss what agents do behind the scenes, why actors are not submitted for every role, what makes a performer more casting-ready, and how headshots, profiles, self-tapes, communication and reliability all shape professional opportunities. This episode is ideal for actors, musical theatre performers, screen talent, emerging artists and parents of young performers who want a clearer, more practical understanding of how the casting world really works.
