68. An Introduction to a Modern Class of Casting Visionaries- Featuring Brittani Ward
For the past thirteen years, Brittani Ward has built an impressive career, working on projects of every size. Extensive casting associate work under Emmy-award winners (Barbara Fiorentino, Amber Horn, Danielle Aufiero, Laray Mayfield, and Julie Schubert) includes one season of every Marvel/Netflix series, 50 Shades of Gray Darker and Freed, Death Note, two Jason Statham-led features, and prestigious television pilots and series.
As an independent casting director, Brittani found her niche in high-level casting strategy relative to film financing, which has segued into producing.
