How We Brought a Film Series to Life Over 72 Weeks

Aura Casting is thrilled to announce our latest project, the film series "Generations," set to begin filming in the Bay Area in early 2025!

The excitement surrounding this cast announcement is unparalleled as we spent a total of 72 weeks meticulously searching for the perfect talents to bring this unique project to life.

While some may find the extensive casting process unconventional, our casting team knew that in order to deliver on a project that spans different time periods and requires a strong family resemblance, a nationwide search for exceptional talent was necessary. With characters set in both present day and 1943, authenticity was key, and we were committed to ensuring that each member of the cast could seamlessly bridge the gap between these eras.

The journey to assembling this cast was nothing short of remarkable. It involved sifting through hundreds of self-tapes, conducting multiple Zoom callbacks, and organizing chemistry reads to find the perfect ensemble. After a rigorous selection process, we are proud to announce that a 20-person cast has been formed, with each member bringing their unique talent and authenticity to the project.

Our original casting call in September 2023!

As J Eye Films gears up to start filming Generations, we are incredibly proud of the cast that we have assembled. The dedication and hard work that went into this casting process have truly paid off, and we cannot wait to see these talented individuals breathe life into the characters we have envisioned. We ultimately found actors from New York, Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area!
