Broadcast international, shooting unknown player? (6,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

screen test

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'shooting unknown player?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'broadcast international' is the wordplay.
'broadcast' becomes 'screen' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'international' becomes 'test' (I've seen this before).
'screen'+'test'='SCREEN-TEST'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for screen test that I've seen before include "trial for players" , "in which player tries to impress" , "What might precede filming" , "Try-out for film actor" , "Film audition" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
