I am relatively new to film making and have come into a dilemma. Usually when working on projects, my team and I have cast talent from a local actor's workshop and our school's theater department. By casting through these outlets, we have managed to gain reliable talent that doesn't require much resources to be used e.g. money. Although there is a pretty sizable pool of people to choose from, I feel after working on as many projects as we have with them, that our selection is becoming a little trite.
My dilemma is: I would personally like my prospective projects to have a wider variety of talent to choose from. Mainly as a way to learn to work with different actors and develop an even larger pool.
Are there any suggestions on where to find prospective talent without going well beyond my means.
