Covid-19 note:  For the duration of this emergency, you'll be working from home, and will rejoin us in our studio in Westchester County, New York, when we can re-open it.

We invite you to join OutCasting as a youth participant!  If you fill out this application, you're not obligated in any way; this is just the first step in a conversation we can continue by phone to talk about the possibility of your joining OutCasting.

Age:  Over the years, we have had OutCasters of middle school, high school, and college ages. 

Orientation/identity:  You can identify with any sexual orientation or gender identity, including straight ally, but you must be supportive of the fight for LGBTQ+ equality.

This online application is secure and confidential.  Once we receive it, we'll reach out to you, normally by e-mail or text, to schedule a phone call.

Please have a look at our short video for prospective new OutCasters.  You can also get more information here.

You do not have to have previous experience — we will teach you what you need to know — but if you do have relevant experience, great!  We'll talk about that on the phone.

Thanks!  We look forward to receiving your application and, we hope, working with you at OutCasting.

In the form below, a red character indicates a required response.

First and last names

Legal name, if different

Your pronouns

City, State

Your phone number

Your email address - personal (not your @school address)

If you have a school email account, please don't enter it here; these accounts often reject outside communication, including emails from us, so please enter your personal address (gmail or whatever you have).

Your age

We'll want to call you on the phone to talk with you about joining OutCasting. If you're LGBTQ and you're not out to people likely to see or hear communications from us, we will be extra cautious, so please enter "take precautions." If it doesn't matter, please enter "no precautions necessary." If your situation is something else, please just enter what you want us to know.

We are currently working from home because of the Covid pandemic, but we will return to working in our studios when it's safe to do so. Do you live within driving distance of southern Westchester County in New York, and once we re-open our studio, can you drive there or get a ride on a regular weekly schedule? (It's difficult to get to our studio by mass transit, so being able to get there by car is important.)

Can you get permission from a parent to participate? (If you're under 18, there is a form you'll have to have a parent or guardian sign.)

The permission form identifies OutCasting as LGBTQ media but says that the program is staffed by LGBTQ youth and straight allies.

Thank you! Is there anything else you want us to know about?
