AFTRANY Open Door 2010

Posted May 07, 2010

Open Door 2010 is Coming!

 

AFTRA's Open Door Program provides the opportunity for paid-up New York members to meet with casting directors and agents.  At the last Open Door, over 1,300 members met with 125 agents and casting directors who gave over 2,250 appointments.

 

In order to participate, you must go through the lottery, the first of a three-step process.  At the lottery, you’ll pick a card, which tells what date and time to come to registration (where the actual appointments will be chosen).  The lottery dates are:

 

Monday, May 17^th, 2010: 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Thursday, May 20^st, 2010: 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Tuesday, May 25^th, 2010: 12:00 noon to 7:00 p.m.

 

The lottery will be held in the AFTRA Conference Room, 260 Madison Avenue, 7th floor.  This is a random drawing so there is no need to come early.  The last person drawing a card could pick the first time slot for registration.  At registration (step two), you will choose one or two appointments from a list of casting directors and agents who have agreed to meet with AFTRAns on a one-to-one basis.  Most of the appointments will take place later in June (step three).

 

The Open Door Committee is made up of 35 members, who volunteer hundreds of hours of their time to open doors for YOU.  So bring your current AFTRA card, your photo/resume, and join AFTRANY’s biggest member event of the year!
