Today we’d like to introduce you to Dr Self Tape. Them and their team share their story with us below:
In the last couple of years, the industry has shifted in the casting process, and Industry professionals are being asked, with higher frequency, to “self-tape” their auditions. The Harold brothers, Joseph & Joel Harold, have formed the company Dr. Self Tape out of the growing need to provide quality media to give their community a competitive edge in the over-saturated entertainment market.
It all started in their living room with their roommate, needing to frequently self-tape for the upcoming audition. Being filmmakers, they discovered a unique way of storytelling in the audtion process that is not conveyed in traditional self-taping. Using dynamic lighting techniques, the Harold brothers figure out a way where they can be set apart from the crowd. We took away from having to set up and break down your equipment every time an audition comes through. Now you have a dedicated environment catered to your creative self.
Our mission is to produce visual content that resonates with viewers, regardless of genre, scale, or platform. From creating the overall strategy to organizing and executing the shoot to managing the multifaceted post-production process, we ensure our clients’ projects are seamless from start to finish. As a result, Dr. Self Tape can bring your vision to life, starting with a vague idea or a fully-fleshed-out concept.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
Some of Dr. Self Tape’s most significant challenges were meeting the demands of a specific casting director or talent agency. However, our ongoing conversations with these industry professionals have been our greatest strength. They give all the latest scoops and techniques to make your auditioning process more accessible so that you can get the job.
