Nominate Someone Who Inspires You

#casting one of the most #challengingjobs I’ve ever done. Nominate Someone Who #InspiresOthers

By this, I mean that I’m NOT actually looking for actors. It’s preferable that they are nominated by someone else.

Do you know someone with #DynamicEnergy? Ability to #Communicate? Versatility? Ability to Judge?

Searching for people of any age from around the world who have achieved great and notable things in the fields of science/technology, art, athletics, humanities, and music to be featured in mini documentary style ads to #inspire others.

Examples:

Kate Foster, a childhood cancer survivor who returned to competitive gymnastics after losing part of her leg above the knee.

Tony Hansberry II,?at age 14 invented new type of suture that reduces risk of complications during surgery.

Xóchitl Guadalupe Cruz López, Youngest girl at age 8 to receive the "Recognition of the Institute of Nuclear Science for Women", by the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM)

Sky Brown, Great Britain's youngest Olympic medalist ever who just became the third 13-year-old skateboarder in the world to win medal at Tokyo Olympics this year!

This project will definitely keep me busy through the end of the year!

I’m telling you this because I want you to know what I’m working on, and why I haven't posted any casting notices since the Spring of this year.?As a casting director my responsibility is to find the talent that will be in a production (on screen or on stage), telling whatever story is being told, or in the case of commercials, telling a story that helps sell an idea, a product, or a service.

There are many different types of casting directors. Some work on studio films, some on independent features, some on episodic television, or soap operas. Some casting directors work on commercials (lots of them), some work on theatre, musical theater or dance. And then… there’s this kind of casting that is REALITY casting.

Did you ever wonder how to get on a reality show? Check out this site for notices:

Reality Casting is specialized. It involves a lot of #scouting

For now, if you message me directly asking me to “keep you in mind for a project”, or want to know how to get started as an actor in general, I'm happy to help if I can. But I'll most likely to refer you to earlier articles I’ve posted on the subject.

Thank you!
