Michael Petrella Casting is available for coaching and consultation. Whether you're interested in casting opportunities or need a hand preparing for an on-camera interview, our fifteen years of experience -- and hundreds of credits -- can help get you prepare for your media exposure. 

Get in touch today if you'd like to set up a one-on-one meeting, via video conference or in-person, to discuss maneuvering the world of television. 

• Preparing for Casting Opportunities. Whether you're preparing for a casting call or Skype interview, I've been on the other side of the table/video call literally thousands of times and can help you prepare for what may be your first time. We can discuss what you can expect, what you should know about the process from the other side, and how to make an impression to earn a sincere shot. 
• On-Camera Coaching. Not everyone knows what to expect when they're preparing to speak publicly or on camera. Sometimes, people who are totally comfortable speaking to strangers have a hard time when a camera arrives. I can help you to gain a level of comfort with what can be an uncomfortable situation, and help you learn how to answer questions effectively -- and in a way that will require less producing (which is a huge bonus to casting and production folks). 
  
• Developing Pitch Ideas. Everyone has a story to tell, and many people want to share those stories with networks or producers. With several years of experience in series development, I've been through the process -- from idea-planting to full-fledged production -- several times and can walk you through what to expect. Finding the stories that need to be shared -- and communicating them effectively -- are the most important things for executives to see and hear.
