About the event

Casting By: Documentary Screening + Industry Talkback


Join us for a special screening of the landmark documentary Casting By, followed by a live talkback with the film’s director, composer, and distinguished casting professionals.


Released in 2012, Casting By shines a spotlight on one of the most influential yet historically overlooked roles in filmmaking: the casting director. The film tells the story of legendary casting director Marion Dougherty, whose groundbreaking work helped shape the modern casting profession while remaining largely unrecognized by major awards bodies.


More than a documentary, Casting By became a catalyst for change. By revealing the profound impact casting directors have on the films we love, the film helped fuel a long-running movement to recognize casting as an essential creative discipline. The advocacy that followed ultimately led the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to establish a new Best Casting category beginning with the 98th Academy Awards.

Following the screening, stay…
