Expanding Our Network: How We Connect with Talent Nationwide
Aura Casting has cast in twelve states and counting, and every new city teaches us something different. Recently, we’ve worked in Maui, Las Vegas, and Chicago, and each market brought its own creative energy and approach to production.
When we expand into a new location, we do our research. We reach out to local agencies, social media networks, and acting schools to get a feel for the talent scene. We’re not just looking for names to add to a list, we’re building relationships. Agents love hearing from casting, and we love hearing about who’s working locally, who’s reliable, and who brings something special to set.
Every market has its own rhythm.
What works smoothly in Los Angeles might not translate the same way in Nashville or Maui. You can’t expect talent to drive the same distances or be available at the same hours everywhere. That’s why talking to local agents is so valuable. They help us understand what’s standard in that community, and that information helps us keep productions on track and respectful of everyone’s time.
Some of our best partnerships have come from a simple phone call. During one especially busy project, we were stressed trying to find the right actors before the deadline. We reached out cold to a local agency, kept the conversation light, and went over the project details together. That one call made all the difference! Now that agency is one of our go-to partners whenever we cast in that city.
Building strong relationships is what makes our casting team stand out. We take the time to connect with agents, talent, and local communities, which helps our clients cast faster and more effectively nationwide. When you bring us onto your project, you’re not just hiring a casting team. You’re tapping into a network that’s growing every day, with trusted partners across the country.
If your next shoot takes you somewhere new, let Aura Casting handle the legwork. We’ll find the right local talent and make sure your production feels seamless from the first email to the final booking. Contact us to get started.
