I served as casting producer for a feature length documentary about Metallica fans. A goal of the film is to portray the fanbase as thoroughly as possible, making sure everyone was represented around the world. I researched Metallica fans from all walks of life to give the most diverse and interesting group of fans possible. In 13 weeks, I reached out to over 800 fans, zoomed the finalists, created pitch docs and spreadsheets of my progress, and worked closely with production in England from week to week to ensure we were getting everything the director wanted included in the film. Because of my production background, I was able to attend a few shoots stateside and assist on set. This was a very high volume casting as I was the only member of the staff dedicated to casting.
Summary
Casting producer with production and writing experience. Comedy background. Great with story. Editing on Premiere Pro. Cut 100's of casting edits. Ready for my next gig!
