Hi Everyone,
I’m beyond excited to announce my first-ever Casting Director Workshop, and I’d love for you to be a part of it! This has been a dream of mine for a while, and I’m thrilled to bring this opportunity to the community.
The workshop will feature none other than Jamie Ember, a phenomenal Casting Associate with Joseph Middleton, who also casts her own projects. I recently had the chance to grab coffee with Jamie, and I was blown away by her passion, expertise, and dedication to actors. Not to mention, she’s incredibly cool!

Making bold choices in the room
Working with (or against) your type

What to Expect
Jamie will lead mock producers sessions where you’ll:

Why Jamie Ember?
Jamie’s impressive resume speaks for itself:
