Passionately connecting actors to the casting community.

 In the almost 42 years since its inception in 1982, ITA has developed a reputation throughout the industry of having quality talent – actors who are committed, serious and well trained.

Casting Director Workshops

We have provided a warm community of professional, supportive actors for decades.

ITA has a select screening process, which has given ITA an "Industry Respected" core of actors.

We offer both in person and online workshops, as well as one monthly Talent Blast Showcase, where you can showcase your skills in front of five casting directors at once!

In person workshops

ITA offers opportunities for in person workshops each month. We host the workshops at a real casting studio in Santa Monica, and we can film the work for you to see back.
