kingundisputed_ Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 me too. and Ive worked the event for years. still nothing. it does seem like they are looking for something very specific with the taller slender girls while the curvy girls in that height range are already cast. they may be waiting to send the emails out to all of the same type at once or you and I could just be sol. who knows. Makes me feel a bit better to know I'm not alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jozzy Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Hi Everyone - my first post here! I just saw the audition for next week and am thinking of going. I cant find anywhere that says how much they pay? Are you allowed to say? Also has anyone done stilt-walking at Universal, and is that paid more - and also how is it? thanks!!

ZackT Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Not really supposed to disclose the pay, but it's above minimum wage and it's fun! I /think/ stiltwalkers get paid more. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingundisputed_ Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Stilts are paid more, but they've already filled all of the stilt roles I think. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZackT Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Fitting schedule has come out; now time to anxiously ponder what I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingundisputed_ Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 The rejection emails went out and I didn't get one. Still in limbo. Feeling cautiously optimistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazednconfused Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Could somebody please explain to me where I am in the casting process? I auditioned yesterday and they gave six other people and myself a golden piece of paper. We then went to the casting associate and gave our respective cell phone numbers and email addresses. Last night I received an email saying that I was not cast yet but that I was in the next step of the process and that I should apply for a job online. There were also three attachments. The first was a pdf that said when wardrobe fittings are more or less going to be scheduled and which dates rehearsals are. Being that I have a Mac, I was unable to open the other two attachments. I'm just a little confused. Anyone familiar with this whole process that would be able to demistify it? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevler Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Did you apply online? Thats your next step. After that you wait for an email telling you if you've been cast or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazednconfused Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Yep! I completed my app earlier today. Cool. And now I play the waiting game. Joy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingundisputed_ Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I hope that calling them doesn't cause them to reject me outright. I'm too paranoid for my own good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZackT Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I hope that calling them doesn't cause them to reject me outright. I'm too paranoid for my own good. No harm in asking -- things do get lost in the shuffle sometimes. I found out I was cast in 2010 by anxiously calling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingundisputed_ Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 That makes me feel a little better. At this point, I wouldn't even mind if I was rejected, I'd just like to know. Bleh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingundisputed_ Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Still nothing. As a fallback, a friend and I applied as for regular seasonal work at Universal. They called him, but not me. I can only assume that means HHN will hire me later... I hope. This'll be the last thing I post till I hear something. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadySonnet Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 That makes me feel a little better. At this point, I wouldn't even mind if I was rejected, I'd just like to know. Bleh. That's exactly where I am :\ I just wanna know! I have other haunted houses I need to let know if I'm in or not. I'd really like to do this one though.

So you don̓t think it̓s a bad thing to call politely? Since I have other gigs I wanted to give this one priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingundisputed_ Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I called them, but never heard anything back. Guess it's good to know I'm not alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
