A Casting Director serves as the person on your film or television series who brings your story to life with Actors. Usually, that starts at the very beginning of the process where the Casting Director will read the script and have some ideas right off the bat. You’re casting your leads, oftentimes with Actors who are known, all the way down through to the supporting roles, and then the one-line roles. The Casting Director will usually work on all of the speaking roles. It’s an interesting position because we are one of the first people that are hired on a project. But we’re usually not on set, so by the time we get to see it, it’s gone through a whole evolution. We’re really critical in the pre-production process.
