Actor Audition Experience Feedback Survey
Captures how actors experienced your casting process — clarity of materials, professionalism in the room, and fairness of communication — for casting directors and production teams who want to protect their reputation with talent. The AI follow-up digs into the single best or worst moment of the audition to find out exactly what happened and why.
Sample questions
A preview of what’s in the template. Every question is editable before you launch.
How did you find out about this audition?
- Talent agent or manager

Which best describes the format of this audition?
- In-person initial audition
- Self-tape submission
- Live virtual/video call

How clear and complete were the audition materials (sides, character breakdown, self-tape instructions) provided beforehand?
Rate the following aspects of your audition day.
- Started on/near the scheduled time
- Direction or adjustments given in the room
- Respect shown for your time
- Professionalism of casting staff
- Comfort of the waiting area/environment
How would you rate the clarity of any direction or adjustments given to you during the audition?
Before you left (or logged off), did you receive a clear sense of next steps?
- Yes, a clear timeline for callbacks/decision
- A vague mention with no timeline
- No mention of next steps at all
How likely are you to recommend auditioning for this casting team or production to another actor?
Reconstruct the single most positive or most frustrating moment of this audition experience for the respondent — what specifically happened, who was involved, and how it affected their performance or morale. If they rated 'respect for time' or 'clarity of next steps' low in the matrix or multiple-choice question, probe exactly what went wrong and what they wish had happened instead. If everything was rated highly, probe what specifically stood out as exceptional so it can be repeated for other actors.

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Uses an AI follow-up interview to reconstruct the single best or worst moment of the audition, uncovering exactly what happened and why rather than leaving it to a blank comment box.
- Combines structured ratings (opinion scales, a matrix on audition-day aspects, a rating on direction clarity) with open-ended reflection so casting teams get both benchmarkable scores and rich context.
- Segments respondents by years auditioning professionally and union status, letting production teams see if experience level or union standing shapes perceptions of fairness or professionalism.
- Closes with a clear next-steps check and a likelihood-to-recommend question, giving casting directors a direct read on reputational risk with talent.
Jotform
Acting Audition Form TemplateThis is a static intake/submission form for actors applying to or scheduling an audition, not a post-audition feedback survey. It's fielding-ready and customizable within Jotform's builder, but it's built to collect actor details rather than to gauge how the audition experience actually felt. Casting teams would need to build a separate feedback flow to capture talent sentiment.
What it does well
- Ready-to-use, customizable form builder with drag-and-drop fields
- Familiar Jotform ecosystem (file uploads, e-signatures, integrations) useful for collecting headshots/resumes
- Free to start, widely used by casting offices
Where it falls short
- Static question set with no adaptive AI follow-up to probe a specific moment or complaint
- No built-in per-response quality scoring or automated experience reporting
- Not designed to measure post-audition fairness/professionalism sentiment — it's an intake form, not a feedback instrument
Typeform
Acting Audition FormTypeform's version is also oriented around collecting audition submissions or applications in a conversational, one-question-at-a-time format, rather than surveying talent about how an audition day went. It's a polished, fielding-ready form, but it doesn't address clarity, professionalism, or fairness of the casting process. Any follow-up on a specific answer would require manual logic branching, not true adaptive questioning.
What it does well
- Clean, conversational UI that likely improves completion rates for actor submissions
- Easy embedding and sharing, consistent with Typeform's brand
- Logic-jump branching for basic conditional paths
Where it falls short
- No AI-driven follow-up interview — branching logic is manually authored, not adaptive to open-text answers
- No voice interview option or guided screen-share tasks
- No automated quality scoring or auto-generated experience report; results would need manual review
