Universal Pictures’ Post

For 2.5 incredible years I worked as a Casting Producer on Channel 4's 'First Dates' and I'm taking a moment to reflect on this amazing journey. From helping to cast the main and spin off series, to stepping up as a producer and director for several episodes, each moment has been a chapter in a story I'll always cherish. Casting for this show was a labor of love – challenging, yet magically rewarding. Working with the most dedicated team in TV, who tirelessly strived to create the perfect matches, was an absolute privilege. Our mission was to spark love, unite families, and maybe, just maybe, lay the foundation for marriages and new beginnings. Knowing that our hard work could lead to such life-changing moments made every challenge worth it. As I look back, I'm filled with pride and joy for being part of a show that wasn’t just about entertainment, but about creating real, lasting connections. Here's to love, to teamwork, and to the magic of 'First Dates'! 💖🎬 #CastingWithHeart #LoveOnSet #TVProducing #TVcasting #AdCasting #MediaProduction #IndustryLeaders #MediaCasting #OnScreenDiversity #CastingAgency #Storytelling #ProductionCasting #CastingExcellence #MediaProfessionals #FutureStars #DiverseCasting #InclusiveMedia #BespokeCasting #CreativeCasting #TalentDiscovery #AuthenticCasting #RealPeopleCasting #CharacterCasting #GlobalCasting

#Einstein once coined the phrase that everything is relative. So it is even in the #experienceeconomy. And so it will be in the #workplace and #worklife. First, the #virtual gave birth to #commuteregret in worklife, much like Netflix erased the value of heading to the cinemas in entertainment. The cinema and theatre needed a new narrative for it reason to be. Now Netflix is making it worthwhile to go see Netflix IRL at a theatre through a new narrative. Soon, all #offices need to do the same, creating a #FOMO or an experience that makes it worthwhile to experience the office IRL.

Do you prefer reality TV or scripted theatrical entertainment? We're trying something new at K & C Media! As filmmakers in training, we lean more towards scripted content. With "Saving Skateland," we decided to take a swing at reality tv and document the process of keeping a Pine Bluff business open! Pine Bluff struggles to attract businesses and keep them open, things that ultimately contribute to the struggling economy of the city. So this will be a very challenging journey to try and change the trajectory of another business on the brink. We think it's possible, but only time will tell... worst case scenario if we never reach the goal of the series, hopefully our failure will atleast be entertaining 😅 If you have a second, check out episode 1 and let us know what you think! https://lnkd.in/gYCv4Npw

FOR NON-ACTORS and ACTORS alike I found GOLD from working with the BEST of the Comic Actors in the upper echelons of Network TV. 3 Emmy winning shows! (and many others) I was involved in thousands of hours of episodic Network TV at all the Networks (when there were only 5 and Netflix was only mailing DVDs :) I will share insights with you all in what I gleaned from watching the Greats. It was part of MY JOB to stare at actors and figure out what was it about them, that made them so special, so revered. So ATTRACTIVE. And it wasn’t just looks. Look at Frances McDormand, Adam Driver, Sam Rockwell. Why can we not take our eyes off them? It was also my job to find actors who weren’t stars yet, and help them unearth the gifts they didn’t realize they had. My job title after all, was Casting DIRECTOR. It was a dream job for me. And I was GREAT at it. It was a decades-long journey in which, in the end,  I understood in my bones what Charisma really is and I became a MASTER at it. I discovered my own way of explaining that “Je nais se quois” - that “I don’t know what they have but I like it.” And now I’m here to explain it to you. To take out the mystery. And in doing so, you can not only enhance your own charisma, but help others find theirs. And helping others enhance theirs elevates humanity in every way.  #charisma #stepup #stopplayingarole #speech #keynote
