Black Box Debate

Which they have done before. Casting Agencies usually do not advertise in this way. Not the good ones at least. They have enough "talent" to cater for without asking for a world of pain inviting thousands more. It also seriously damages your chances if you have to complete with all the other applicants as well.

Think about it - an agent who was welcoming just about everybody and/or was having to actively search for talent, what does that say about the agent? Most agencies to not actively seek out clients. They are a service you hire to help find perfromance gigs but rarely need to seek out new clients due to the nature of the work, as opposed to a recruitment agency who help you find permanent work opportunities and therefore are always looking for more.

If an agent is actively seeking clients, then they are either desperate or sus. Either way, would you join such an agent?
