LEARN WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU WALK INTO THE ROOM.
You may have the look. You may have the talent. But what happens when a casting brief lands in front of you, the camera starts rolling and someone says, “Whenever you're ready?”
CASTING READY is a practical one day actors, models and casting audition masterclass in Kathmandu designed to help you understand exactly that.
Led by Gautam Dhimal, with working industry professionals joining where relevant, the day takes place inside a real production environment at Location Nepal Studio.
YOUR NEXT AUDITION SHOULD NOT BE YOUR FIRST LESSON.
Casting is about much more than looking right. It is about understanding the brief, preparing yourself, communicating clearly, working with the camera, taking direction and presenting yourself professionally.
CASTING READY lets you practise those things before your next real opportunity.
EXPERIENCE CASTING IN A REAL PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT.
THE CASTING READY EXPERIENCE
At Location Nepal Studio, you will work through a practical casting brief, prepare and perform, step in front of a professional camera, receive direction, make adjustments and understand how your performance changes on camera.
You will work with lights, camera and sound, experience a professional studio environment and receive feedback on your presentation, preparation, camera confidence and ability to take direction.
Learn. Practise. Perform. Get feedback.
FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CAMERA.
GAUTAM DHIMAL
Producer · Casting Director · Photographer · Filmmaker · Line Producer
Gautam Dhimal has worked across international film, television, commercial, fashion and documentary productions in Nepal, with productions from the UK, USA, Australia, Germany, Japan, South Korea, Israel, Malaysia, China, the Netherlands and beyond.
His casting and production credits include Our Girl for BBC One, Gap Year for Channel 4, and international campaigns including Nippon Paint, Powerade, DOOSAN, China Postal Express, Nestea, Panasonic, Vicks and others.
He has worked across casting, production, locations, crews and cameras, giving him a perspective that goes well beyond the audition room.
You are learning from someone who has worked on both sides of the camera.
ACTORS. MODELS. PERFORMERS. FRESH FACES.
You do not need thousands of followers, a perfect Instagram account or a film credit to begin. You may be completely new, already auditioning or simply unsure where you fit.
You need preparation.
CASTING READY is for people who want to understand how professional casting works and become more confident walking into that environment.
KNOW WHERE YOU STAND.
CASTING READINESS FEEDBACK
During the masterclass, you will receive practical feedback around presentation, camera confidence, audition preparation, communication, taking direction and profile readiness.
You will also take home a CASTING READY Guide and checklist, along with a Certificate of Participation, a behind the scenes photograph and the class group photograph.
The goal is not to tell you that you are ready. It is to help you understand what being ready actually means.
YOUR CASTING PROFILE MATTERS.
When an opportunity arrives, your first impression often begins before you meet the casting team.
A strong casting portfolio helps production teams understand your face, appearance, range and suitability for different roles.
Location Nepal also develops professional casting portfolios for actors, models and emerging talent.

NO FALSE PROMISES.
CASTING READY does not promise representation, an audition, a role or employment.
It offers something real: professional preparation, practical camera experience, honest feedback and a better understanding of how casting works.
What you do with that preparation is up to you.
THIS IS WHERE YOU START.
Maybe you have wanted to act for years. Maybe someone has told you that you should model. Maybe you have never stood in front of a professional camera.
Or maybe you have already auditioned and know you can do better.
Wherever you are starting from, spend one full day learning what happens when talent meets the camera, the casting process and the production world.
Stop waiting to be discovered. Start preparing to be considered.
