AI, Casting, and the Future of the Actor's Career

Rose Rosen (https://castingconfidential.com/meet-...) sits down with casting director, entertainment strategist and creative producer Robert Martin Jr. and international casting director Luci Lenox for one of the most grounded, honest conversations about AI that actors actually need to hear. Not the fear version, not the hype version — the real one. Together, they break down what AI is actually doing inside casting offices right now, why your online presence matters more than ever, how to protect yourself and your work in the age of large language models, and why the self-tape era is demanding a whole new set of skills from performers. The conversation also includes a live coaching segment featuring actor Claire Schoonover, with real-time feedback on eye line, connection, and performance — the kind of insight you rarely get from the outside looking in. If you've been wondering how to stay relevant, stay protected, and stay human in an industry moving faster than anyone predicted, this episode is your starting point.
