Casting Notice: SAIT Productions (Union & Non-Union Permitted)

Casting Call

Upcoming SAIT Student Production

The SAIT Film and Video program is holding an open casting for multiple upcoming productions by students going into their final semester. They will be shooting movies of various genres between March and August of 2022.

Rather than hold a dozen separate auditions SAIT will be holding one general audition using a selection of drama and comedy scenes. The students will then have access to these to cast their various films.

Members who work on SAIT projects, waive their fees but gain experience and assist up & coming Alberta filmmakers create their first production.
