This week on Casting Confidential, host Rose Rosen, CSA, is joined by industry pros Robin Carus, Cheryl Louden-Kubin, and Kimberly Skyrme for a vital bonus

episode focused on actor resumes. Whether you’re new to the game or a seasoned performer, understanding what casting directors are really looking for on

your resume is key.

The panel dives into best practices—from formatting tips and font choices to the power of special skills and the importance of telling the truth. You’ll hear why

simplicity and clarity always win, what red flags to avoid, and how your resume can spark real interest when it’s done right. They also tackle specific advice for minors,

Zoom etiquette, and the shift from printed headshots to digital profiles and casting software.

Season 3 of Casting Confidential is in full swing, and this week, Rose Rosen is joined by co-host and D.C.-based casting director Kimberly Skyrme for a dynamic

conversation with actor Chandler Riggs. Best known for his breakout role on The Walking Dead, Chandler reflects on his early auditions, growing up in the industry,

and the challenges of transitioning from child actor to adult professional.

From his first self-tapes to navigating nerves in high-stakes rooms, Chandler shares the real behind-the-scenes of working with casting directors—and what

he’s learned about authenticity, confidence, and craft. Plus, we close with a standout live read featuring Julia Ford Collier and real-time feedback from our panel.
