Join the cast& crew
We cast first-time actors and build our crews from our community. Authenticity and a willingness to learn matter most.
How can I audition for S&Q Films?
We post open casting and crew calls on Instagram, TikTok, and Patreon. Many of our actors are newcomers to film, so experience isn't required.
Do I need acting experience?
No. We regularly cast first-time actors. Authenticity and willingness to learn matter most.
What does “un-gatekeeping” mean?
It's our commitment to making filmmaking accessible to everyone. We cast first-time actors, share the creative process openly, and help our community learn how films are made without barriers or exclusivity.
Where can I watch your films?
Our short films stream on our YouTube channel. You can also watch them on our Films page.
