Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the casting call for?

BioWare is looking for a wide variety of people to use as face models for characters for upcoming games.

2. Which game are you casting?

All of them! We always need faces!

3. How many people or models do you need?

A typical BioWare game can have 300 + characters. So as you can see we will need a number of models. And we need models of all kinds!

4. When will you let me know if I've been chosen?

We will be casting a number of characters this spring and summer. It?s hard to say when we might call. We will keep the photos on file for a number of years. We?re photographing hundreds of people so we will only call the people we want to come back. Please don?t call us. We will call you if we want you to come back. For updates on games visit this website regularly.

5. Will I be paid for having my photo taken at the casting call?

No.

6. Will I be paid if you want to use me for game characters?

If you are selected by our game producers to have a 3D scan you will be required to sign a Performer's agreement and you will be paid a fee for the use of your image.

7. How much will I be paid?

That will be discussed with you if you are selected to be a head model.

8. What will happen if you chose me to be a character in your game?

We will arrange for you to have a 3D scan of your head. This 3D scan is then converted to a 3D head model that can be used in games. It will take about 1- 1.5 hours to perform the head scan.

9. How is the head scan done?

The best way to describe it is to say that hundreds of pictures are taken of your head from a variety of angles all at the same distance. This information is used to create a 3D image of your head in the computer.

10. Will there be nudity involved?

No.

11. What if I change my mind, can I say no?

Sure. Just because we take your photo at a casting session does not mean that you are committed to any further participation. Of course if we cast you we'd really love you to be in our games but we won't force you. If you do choose to have the scan done, we will require that you sign a BioWare Performer's Agreement. This will give BioWare Corp. the right to use the head scan. Once you have signed the performers agreement you will not be able to change your mind about us using the scan.

12. Can I be the voice?

The voices are done at a much later date and are performed by professional actors. If you are an actor and would like to submit a voice demo to BioWare please feel free to do so at any time.

Forward voice demos to:

    • I wonder how many are laid off for cost savings, and this being blamed on AI to make it sound less scary and bad, for a more positive "modern, with the times" spin for investors? Because Oracle is down 14% the past year. We're looking at a company struggling here. If AI would actually be working out so well for them that they can do massive layoffs, surely this would've been reflected the past year in their stock value?
    • AI is the beginning, wait until real robots replace more jobs, specifically jobs that require physical work.
    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it by Hamid Ganji There’s no question that AI has become the hottest trend in workplaces, and every company is trying to adopt AI-driven solutions across its operations. While some industry leaders repeatedly say AI won’t lead to massive layoffs, recent data suggest that AI is actually one of the main reasons some companies are reducing their workforce. According to Oracle’s annual regulatory filing, the company has laid off about 21,000 employees, or 13% of its workforce, amid increasing AI adoption. “The adoption and deployment of AI technologies across our operations have resulted, and may continue to result, in reductions to our workforce,” Oracle said in the filing. The software giant now has approximately 141,000 full-time employees, a notable decrease from 162,000 during the same period last year. Restructuring expenses, including severance payments, cost Oracle $1.84 billion in fiscal 2026. Additionally, around 49,000 Oracle employees were based in the U.S., while approximately 92,000 were employed internationally. Like many other companies, Oracle has fully embraced AI and concentrated much of its efforts on the technology. The company is also a key participant in the United States’ $500 billion Stargate Project, which aims to build multiple AI data centers across the country. When it comes to AI adoption and its impact on the workforce, opinions remain divided. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, whose company has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the AI boom, recently said in an interview that attributing job cuts to AI is a “lazy” narrative. “The narrative that connects AI to job loss, for many of the CEOs that are doing it – it is just too lazy. AI has just arrived, how is it possible they're already losing jobs?” Huang said. However, statistics and recent reports tell a different story. According to Layoffs.fyi, 196 tech companies have laid off about 119,800 employees so far this year. Reducing staff and replacing roles with AI agents could become one of the most significant trends in the job market in the years ahead.
