Casting Hub gives hope to an aspiring actor

CHICAGO, March 14, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Back in September of 2012, Watson Harvey was going through a difficult time. His father was being treated for a brain tumor, which resulted in several family trips to Duke Hospital, 4 hours away from their hometown. It was during one of these visits with Watson and his mom heard a radio commercial that caught their attention. It was a call-to-action for all aspiring actors, and act they did!

Shortly after that phone call, they were invited to a Casting Hub audition. Finally, a road trip filled with fun and excitement. 

Nancy Harvey , Watson's mom, shares their story. "We drove up the night before and stayed at the Hilton right across the street from the audition location. We got up early, had breakfast and were an hour early for the audition. We wanted to be on time and make sure we were in the right location. It paid off. When we were all in the room getting ready for the presentation they called Watson and I out as a good example. They said you thought your audition stared now, well it started the minute you arrived. Mr. Michael, the talent scout, praised us for being early, ready, well behaved, and very eager yet poised," explained Mrs. Harvey. "This was so great for Watson. We meet with Mr. Michael, where he drew a star on Watson's resume for being on time and being in honors Language-Art and Math. We listened to the presentation about this being a business, its hard work; you must be prepared and never give up. We needed those words. My husband's health is declining and this has given Watson something to hold onto."

Shortly after joining Casting Hub, Watson had 2 commercial auditions, and has been on a roll ever since. He is currently in 2 stage productions. "By joining Casting Hub, Watson has gained confidence about his talents. Even though we are going through a difficult time as a family he has remained focused since Casting Hub paid attention to him and encouraged him" Mrs. Harvey proudly explained.
