We are Casting Directors. Actively engaged and working in the Australian and international market place.
We have been casting now for over 38 years, casting major US films as Mission Impossible, Queen of the Damned, Knowing and James Cameron’s Sanctum, along with Australian break out films Chopper, Romper Stomper and too many more to mention.
We have discovered such names as Russel Crowe, Eric Bana, Jackie McKenzie, Guy Pearce, Rachel Griffiths, Racheal Taylor, Rhada Mitchell amongst many others.
We have auditioned more than 200,000 actors in the room, but we are seeing more and more auditions as Self Tests.
We know what makes actors stand out and be noticed, but more to the point, we know how to make actors be remembered.
This is not something you learn at drama school. This is what you learn by being in the room auditioning thousands of actors.
We are passionate about what we do! Quite simply, we LOVE actors and are here to help you do your best audition possible.
Because, let’s face it, the audition is the gateway to you becoming a successful and full time actor.
Let us support you on your journey to securing the role you were born to play!
