The Casting Handbook
The book was written as the Jennifer Granville and co-author, Suzy Catliff, realised there was no literature available about casting, as either a teaching tool or that had looked in depth at the psychology and process of casting from the point of view of all practitioners in the film, theatre and television industries.
Casting is a crucial creative element of any production and yet the craft and skills needed to put together a successful and exciting cat are often overlooked. The Casting Handbook explains the casting process from beginning to end and covers everything producers and directors need to know – as well as proving an illuminating and fascinating read for actors.
The Casting Handbook, for the first time ever, includes interviews with actors, agents, directors, casting directors and producers; case studies; exercises and offers a thorough review of the casting process.
