On this episode of Beginnings: Field Guide, we talk about
casting with Katja Blichfeld.
For beginning – and even seasoned – actors, the world of casting
can seem incredibly random and opaque. To walk us through the
ways in which casting contributes to the creative process of a
project, we talked with Katja, who has cast a number of features
and shows, including the The Carrie Diaries, as well as
the entire run of 30 Rock.
As well as the ins and outs of casting, Katja shares with us some
stories from the early days of 30 Rock, we chat about the
possibility of non-cynical networking, plus there's movie talk with
the gang as we hit up Rocky, The Shining and
Whore's Glory; and Mark and Andy discuss their humiliating
commercial auditions in the wrap-up!
