Frequently asked Questions

JRP Virtual, a Casting Call, Inc. brand, gives performers a place to practice with working industry professionals and then present what they’ve built in front of agents, managers, and casting directors. For a century, we’ve helped talent learn how to stand out and stay competitive - because in this business, the most prepared performers usually get the opportunities.

We focus heavily on training that gets you ready for representation, and we approach rehearsal the way professionals do it: show up prepared, get coached, improve, repeat.

Yes! More than most people realize. The industry moves quickly, and casting teams and agents don’t have time to "wait for potential" to turn into readiness. When a performer is polished, trained, and comfortable taking direction, it shows immediately.

No. Fashion modeling has strict height requirements (generally 5’8”+ for women and 5’11”+ for men), which rules out many talented people. Most of the performers we work with are actors, but we also train commercial models and singers - anyone preparing to work in entertainment.

It shouldn’t. We put academics first for students, and we only work with people who take school seriously. The schedule is built to fit real life: rehearsals and auditions are typically in the evenings and on weekends, so you can keep up with classes (or a day job) while still training consistently.

No. Everything is remote. Zoom is now standard for auditions, agent meetings, and even sessions with well-known coaches. In the past, you often had to fly to Los Angeles to get in the room, which was expensive and time-consuming. Now you can access the same types of opportunities from anywhere, whether you’re in the US, Canada, or abroad.

You’ll be coached by celebrity and working professionals who’ve already dealt with the early-career obstacles you’re facing. They’ll teach you the tools, habits, and approach you need to start building momentum. Plus you’ll get direct feedback and guidance, instead of trying to piece everything together on your own. You’ll also be part of a community that supports your growth as you train.

We want you to attend consistently, but we understand conflicts happen. Because the program continues week to week, you can rejoin and continue with the next session. The key is to come back, stay steady, and keep building.

You’ll commit to a set amount of rehearsal time on weekends so you can develop your skills and learn your material. Auditions and showcases with agents, casting directors, and other professionals are also typically scheduled on a weekend after the rehearsal period.

Extra rehearsal outside of that schedule isn’t required, but if you want to put in more time on your own, we encourage it.

No. We look for people who are serious, reliable, and genuinely interested. When our performers meet top industry professionals, how they behave reflects directly on our coaching.

We’ve built strong relationships with agencies and casting offices because we’re known for bringing in candidates who are talented, motivated, and professional.

We’re not an agency. Like any career path, training and marketing usually require an upfront investment of time and money. Successful actors and models will tell you the same thing: the learning never really stops. These days, very few agencies cover startup costs for new talent. Yes, there are occasional "discoveries", but they’re rare. Most working professionals earn their progress through training, experience, and ongoing development.

At JRP Virtual, we provide the coaching, direction, and confidence to help you move toward your goals in entertainment.
