Once you have completed your workshop, you will have honed your delivery skills to cast in genres suited to your personality, experience & qualifications. Alternatively you may wish to create your own on-line series with the help of our marketing & production departments.

TV Pro Global’s casting service will consider you for a variety of castings should you suit the producer’s brief. You will also be given producer’s contact names and numbers and taught how to ‘self-promote’ should you want to utilize this option. Our online casting service helps place our graduates in a variety of mediums (mainstream TV/on-line video/corporate arena/advertorial) and includes ongoing career guidance & mentoring exclusve to TV Pro Global’graduates. The casting service has 3 tiers as you work your way up from ‘new presenter’ to established profile presenter. For some of our success stories and latest placements please see:https://www.facebook.com/#!/mediamentor1

 

Show Reels

A show reel (presenter’s portfolio) is a necessary tool to have as a TV presenter and although there are sometimes live castings you will always require a reel to promote yourself into the TV Industry. Your promotional tools include: A professionally produced showreel; an industry cover letter; a broadcast CV with photograph. Your reel needs to be versatile and competitive. You may inquire to have one produced by TV Pro Global a few weeks after the training. It is advisable to shoot a showreel at least (up to) four weeks after the training.

Students have their own casting web page exhibiting each segment from their showreel with space for up to 10 videos and photos as they increase their professional portfolio. We have three 'casting  sections' depending on a producer's budget: trained presenter; some presenting; profile presenter.  The casting website is accessed by up to 1200 producers who are registered to our site to cast for their programs. We do not take a commission for placement.

Our casting and mentoring service is offered to all students who have trained with TV Pro Global. Our showreel service is exclusive to TV Pro Global graduates. Some of our showreels can be seen via this link: https://www.youtube.com/user/mediamentor1/videos

Realistic Achievements

If you have not presented on TV before or if you are re-entering this arena, you will need to be realistic about achieving too much too soon. We also specialize in ‘the specialist’ and we are one of only a few casting organizations that places presenters in genres that require specific expertise.

 The type of work graduates can expect to acquire is a specialist program eg. architecture or cooking etc; A promo for a travel program, or a kid’s segment on Foxtel (there are several kids programs that use new presenters, including Totally Wild); A fashion or sports segment; Snow report or Weather presenter; Vox pops out on the streets interviewing the public. Corporate training videos as well as promotional web videos. On-line TV is also very popular for new presenters.There are also various lifestyle, arts, environmental or healthy lifestyle programs on pay TV and also on-line that are popular for new presenters.

 Castings for new presenters also include personality driven programs like red carpet or music segments. We also cast the experienced presenter (graduate). Popular castings are ‘specialty’ programs which require a skill, knowledge or experience from your particular background or work field e.g. Naturopathy, Health and Fitness, Gardening, Legal/Crime; Home improvements, Veterinary or Cooking etc. Placing the specialist is our specialty.
