“How do you deal with all of the rejection?” Many people have asked me that question in the past 6+ years I’ve worked in the industry.
Actors go to many auditions before the right role comes along.
The casting directors are not necessarily harshly rejecting actors. They are just quietly choosing the right person for the role. I think there is a difference between not being chosen and being harshly rejected. The door is not being slammed in my face and casting directors are not being mean during auditions.
Did you know that sometimes the casting director keeps an actor in mind for a future role, sometimes an even better role?
Of course, there is some disappointment, but the last thing you want to do is not fit into a role and ruin a project for everyone. It takes patience and perseverance, just like building a career in ANY industry. Most people do not start out in their industry as stars or as the “go-to” person. So, no, I do not think of it as “rejection.” I just continue to apply and audition for roles and eventually, I’ll be cast in something worthwhile. Check out my imdb page, www.imdb.me/karengoeller.
