How can I audition for your projects, or apply to be hired as crew?
Our mission at Legion M is to open the gates to Hollywood for fans around the world. One of the questions we get asked a lot (besides “Can you bring back Firefly?”) is “Can I audition for your projects?” and “Will you hire me to work on your films?”
While we do often work with casting directors for television and film, whenever possible, we want to harness the power of the Legion. We know how wonderful and talented our community is, and we always look inward to source talent before looking elsewhere. In the past, this has included open casting calls for our Pitch Elevator series, calls-to-action for production needs (like on Archenemy and The Man in the White Van), job postings for positions like social media manager and media response team, and priority for Legion M members when applying as extras for filming in projects like, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot , Nandor Fodor and the Talking Mongoose, and My Dead Friend Zoe.
Over time, we hope to create more and more opportunities like the ones listed above. And when there are production and casting needs, they will likely be impossible to miss, because we’ll be shouting about them from the rooftops!
But, as a startup, Legion M’s capital is limited. Our goal may be to become as big as Disney someday, but we’re not there … yet. Particularly in our earlier projects, our role did not involve casting or hiring and in those cases, making casting decisions or hiring crew is beyond our control, or already a moot point. That said, as we continue developing more of our own projects, we will have a lot more control over those decisions. So keep an eye out for announcements when they come.
In the meantime, we hope to develop more resources for networking within the Legion. After all, while the number of projects that Legion M hires for may be small in these early stages, the number of projects being developed by OTHERS within the Legion is exponentially larger. We frequently see people networking and collaborating on projects in our Legion of Creatives group on Facebook and over time, we’d like to develop more tools to facilitate this.
Bottom line — our community is the center of everything we do. We know there is no end to the talent and creativity among our members! And while the odds of working for Legion M might be slim (with a community of over 150,000 people - and a goal of uniting one million! - we can’t employ everyone), we will ALWAYS be looking for new and innovative ways to involve the Legion in what we do and create opportunities for our community!
