What do you like about casting?
“I have always found casting to be an integral part of the storytelling process. I enjoy viewing the variety of self tapes that come in for each individual role. It feels like putting a puzzle together. Sometimes you find the perfect piece, and sometimes a single self tape can completely redefine the character based on the actors' performance. Both are awe-inspiring experiences. I also enjoy working with actors on Zoom. It's very rewarding and fun to work with them to bring out their best performance.”
