Working on a micro budget or low budget project and can’t afford to hire a Casting Director, but need some professional insight and guidance on the casting process? Or maybe you are working directly for a brand and they want you to execute the entire content creation process including casting?

Many creatives might try to bypass hiring a casting professional since there are so many direct to talent tools available, but casting done correctly is an art form in itself. I often am brought onto a project after a director or producer tried to cast their projects by themselves with not much experience or knowledge. There are many pitfalls to avoid, tips for getting the best auditions, nuanced choices when putting together an ensemble, and broader business and budget decisions to keep in mind when choosing talent.

In this one hour consultation, I will guide you on the types of talent you can consider within your budget, where to find them, suggest audition protocols and tools, go over Union or Non-Union rules (yes, even Non-Union has rules), confirm the types of talent agreements you will need and offer as much insight as possible to help you undertake the casting process with confidence. Whether you are casting an indie film, short film, spec commercial, branded content. or even a national broadcast commercial, I’ve got your back with specific tips to help you shine.

Once booked, I will reach out to schedule a time with you and send you a question form to gather more information about your project. If you need further consultations throughout your project, they will be offered at a discounted rate once you have had your primary consulting call.
