Reality Casting & Recruiting
If it's reality casting you are looking for - you're in the right place. Cara Casting is a full-service casting agency, but we are also a team player. We love working with other casting directors and recruiting for them. We've been told by many CD's that we are "their secret weapon."
Influencer Casting
We're here to help walk you through the mystical and magical world of influencers. Whether it's a micro or mega influencer, we can connect you with the perfect partner for your hyper-targeted campaign.
Meet Cara
Oh, hey! You might remember me from such episodics as Law & Order, The Sopranos, 7th Heaven, and The X-Files. Just kidding! No-one remembers me for my acting career, but it's important to know that I got my start in this crazy industry that I love in front of the camera. It's what makes me an exceptional casting director. I know how to get the very best out of on-camera talent, especially non-actors.
I'll be straight with you - I'm a native New Yorker, but LA is my home now. I'm extremely hard working (maybe a bit of a perfectionist?), a team player, and a straight-shooter. If things are going to be a challenge - I'm going to tell it to you straight. And then we'll figure it out together.
Production and casting are a crazy, amazing, exhausting, hilarious, frustrating, weird, and wonderful union - but we love it and wouldn't have it any other way. I'm here to support you and I'm as passionate about your project as you are.

What Our Clients Say...
Jason Stuckey
Executive Producer
Techstyle Inc.
Finding great customers who could carry the message of our brands was a major pain point that we struggled with for a long time. In a matter of days, Cara and her team covered more ground than we had in years, finding over 200 amazing customers that we never knew existed. The spots she casted are some of our most successful campaigns to date and we couldn't imagine doing any sort of testimonials campaign without her.

Netflix Real Fans Campaign
Cara Casting gave me the opportunity to film a segment for a campaign involving Korean dramas and being Korean myself it was a very fulfilling opportunity. From the casting to filming, Cara Casting’s process was reliable and supportive.
