showing a good application of HD videoconferencing in casting
“Casting often comes down to subtle, but important,
characteristics of the actors, which directors and advertising agencies need
to experience in full detail,” said Morgan Fischer, co-owner of Beth Melsky
Satellite Casting, an offshoot of Beth Melsky Casting, one of the largest
commercial casting agencies on the East Coast. “Typically, this is done by
flying directors and their teams coast to coast for different casting
sessions, which is time consuming and costly. The Polycom HDX systems
provide an experience that is exceptionally true to life, and we are able to
dramatically streamline the process, accelerate decision-making and
significantly reduce costs for our customers. We can essentially accomplish
in one day, what typically takes a week. Our customers can screen actors in
multiple locations on the same day without getting on a plane, enabling them
to spend their time more productively making critical casting decisions,
instead of traveling back and forth.”
