This organization is totally unprofessional and dysfunctional. Their website is out-of-date, their…read moreschedule feature hasn't worked for months and they don't care. Their Live Streaming feature is erratic and often has programs appearing on the wrong channel. The equipment that they lend out to members is most often filthy, mismarked and contains footage left there by previous members. They over-book and over-promise and then renege on their commitments because they haven't got a clue how to book and schedule anything in a responsible manner. Some of their staff are contemptuous of the membership and don't hesitate to insult people. Their expertise and ability to instruct members on the use of equipment and software is deficient and disorganized beyond belief. Their attitude is so passive-aggressive; they don't want to pro-actively point anything out that would help the membership in any way, because that would mean A) They actually have knowledge about what they're talking about, B) That they actually care, and C) They would (gasp!) have to do some work. This clique-y, 'not-my-job, man' group engenders no team spirit, no feeling of inclusiveness and rather propagates a 'by-the-numbers, cookie-cutter site of mostly outside-produced and old pre-packaged bland-beyond-belief material. If they ever had any enthusiasm or vision (which I seriously doubt), it's been dead for years. Their highest point of value (for them, only) is that they exist. WinCam is a total waste of everyone's time and money - if they had to stand on any kind of merit, they'd be history a long time ago. The ONLY reason they exist is because their existence is mandated by government and paid for by a 'tax' on the local cable companies - period. This is a small bunch of elitist and self-serving hacks whose ineptitude and ungraciousness is only surpassed by their vaunted opinions of themselves and their way overinflated egos. . You'll notice, I'm sure, that this is only the second Yelp review they've received; the last one was in 2005. I think that speaks volumes about how utterly irrelevant they are to the community at large.

Decided to give this temp agency a shot as I was struggling to find a job in Boston after I moved…read morehere. Applied online and got a call back from Jen who was very friendly, told me to come take a visit for an interview. The building was very nice, prime location in Financial District. Front desk person asked me to fill out an application and led me to Jen after. Jen was telling me that she has been working at John Leonard for almost 30 years holy moly! She was very professional, knew what she was doing, and sounded like she has a great relationship with their clients (employers). Asked me couple questions about my skills and experience, what I want to do in a long run. After the interview, she explained some of the jobs they have in the system and asked me if any of those spark my interest. Really liked this short term assignment in Cambridge, was places there a week after that interview! Went through many assignments with various employers through John Leonard so far, was a great experience to work with all those employers. John Leonard seems to have a good clientele of employers that would treat you well as long as you do your job! Long story short- no matter what kind of career goals you have, John Leonard will listen to you, learn your story to find a great assignments that fit to your needs and qualification! Shout out to Jen, you are awesome!

Brett and his staff are very personable, professional, and accommodating. We have never been…read morepressured into signing up for anything. My daughters are 10 and 12 and enjoy taking the classes and regularly auditioning for visiting agents. They have extremely busy extra curricular activity schedules, which often conflict with each other. However, Brett has been very flexible about allowing them to make up missed classes. Our older daughter was signed by a New York agent and has had numerous auditions and call backs. She has appeared on a magazine cover, and had a non speaking movie role. What they are really gaining out of the association with Open Call is; confidence, self esteem, learning how to present themselves, understanding rejection, time management skills, self evaluation, negotiation and organizational skills, increased reading speed and better comprehension so they can quickly analyze and memorize dialog and scripts. Most recently they have started to be more fashionable and finding their individual sense of style. They are enjoying expressing their creativity with clothes and different looks. My husband and I think both our girls are very talented and photogenic. What parent doesn't? However, we are realistic. Everything in life requires training, exposure, some luck, solid work experience, and hard work on your part to promote/market yourself as well. Most of all REALISTIC expectations and self knowledge. We are happy with how Open Call manages their office and what they have to offer. Most importantly, our girls enjoy the classes, like their instructors and the staff. They are more confident and comfortable performing on stage and presenting themselves in public. I have recommended Open Call Talent Management to my friends and family.

Now it's turned into an AI-driven numbers game with little to no personal involvement from the people who are supposed to be "recruiters" and upcharging the client as such.

Don't waste your time I've been part of this casting agency for 25 years and it's been nothing but a run around and a hemorrhage of money to people who do not deserve it who aren't there and not professional.

They have a lot of opportunities for everyone you just have to stay on top of your game if acting is really what you want to do. Make sure you sign up for their emailing list and they have a site called agencypro which is a database they also use for talent, it's super useful you can use the free one or pay for it ( paying for it has it perks trust me I know , it's worked out for me ). They provide an array of classes , all throughout the year. They have classes for kids , teens and adults check it out. They don't just provide one class they have numerous ones at numerous times which is very helpful when you can't make one you make another. Jenna and Ann hold classes as well as others but I have taken classes with them and they're AH-MAZ-ZING! I enjoy the classes I learn so much , and I indeed do see a difference in my acting after the classes , you also meet great people who later become your friends and co-workers. Angela the mastermind is great. She's such a busy lady but she for sure makes time to say hello when she sees you around , she always has your best interest at heart. And she knows her stuff , and knows it's well. I love being apart of Boston Casting and I'm so glad I've gotten all the opportunities I got so far from them and I can't wait to continue with the opportunities and see what the future holds.
