Breakdowns - Acting and Modelling Term Glossary

The entertainment industry can at times be overwhelming. MAX Agency has put together a series of commonly used words (terms) to help as a guide.

Breakdowns:
When there is a project/photo shoot that needs to be cast, a producer, director or client hires a casting director or art director. That director puts out a breakdown which is a character description of all the roles being cast in that particular project. Agents receive these breakdowns and then submit their actors/models on projects. There are some breakdowns that are open to all, and actors/models can submit themselves if they match the type of the character being sought.

More terms coming soon!
