- This week on Tipsy Casting we have a can't miss episode with Global Talent Agent, Jessica Polsky Alotto! Her work has spanned multiple countries and she is the head of the North American agency, DBA. She was kind enough to dive deep into what it's like to rep actors across multiple countries and to work with a company that takes a global view on repping talent.
If ever you thought about what it would be like to be repped across multiple countries or wondered what information you need to be looked to in a foreign country, this is a must listen. She details out requirements both via immigration and union status. She also discusses the view that DBA take and how they are shaking up the market across borders.

Learn More About Jess & Jenn's Casting Journeys - This week, actress Tracie Thoms joins us to turn the tables and ask some of the questions actors have been wanting to ask casting.
We get nostalgic about the days of pilot season and unpack just how much the audition process has changed—from waiting rooms and in-person connection to self-tapes and auditioning in isolation. Tracie shares what that shift has felt like from the actor’s side, while we pull back the curtain on what casting directors are navigating behind the scenes.
What’s working? What have we lost? And in an industry that’s changed so dramatically, what does meeting in the middle actually look like?
It’s an honest, funny, and much-needed conversation about where casting and actors are now—and where we go from here.
