The Art Of Casting
We held the casting for Untitled yesterday at Full Sail and what a day it was! Ten hours and 55 auditions later, we have our talent pool to choose from.
Casting is an art, in which you need to be able to ask the right questions and give the right direction in order to find what you are looking for. The most interesting thing I realized from yesterday was that each audition was different. Everyone brought something different to the table, and even when reads seemed similar, it was our job to find a way to get the talent to do something unique. At the end of the day, we don't want review a group of actors on tape that are all the same. We need the variety to choose from. And I think we accomplished just that.
It was amazing how much support we got yesterday with the casting. Many of our friends came out to assist Phil Bache, Kenny Matthews and I in any way they could, and we are grateful to them all - Daniel, Sonya, Brett, Henry, Robb, Steve and Desiree. We could not have done it without their contribution.
Stay tuned... more to come!
