- TV & Film
Casting Corner is a Casting director tips/advice series where I interview different casting directors and their associates around Los Angeles from a casting and acting perspective (since I do both). Learn answers to the questions you wanted to ask/to scared to ask/never thought to ask etc. It’s a great way to learn about the casting and audition process and hear the different perspectives/opinions of each office since every office is different and has different views/likes/dislikes/pet peeves etc. it’s like the advice you would get in workshops but more specific and free!

Casting Corner is a series of casting director and casting associate interviews with different casting offices around LA from from a casting and an actor perspective interviewed by me since I do both. Its goal is to help actors understand the process more and ask questions they normally wouldn't ask or think to ask/get to ask/ know to ask and/or see people/offices to get exposure to that they normally wouldn't or haven't yet. It’s free, it’s helpful and it’s fun!
