Joanna Davis Finding the Right Person for the Story

This week, I'm joined by casting director Joanna Davis for a conversation about discovering talent, building relationships, and understanding what makes a performer stand out. Joanna shares her journey from starting as a high school casting intern to building a career casting projects around the world, and the lessons she has learned from seeing countless actors walk into the room. We discuss the casting process, what casting directors are truly looking for, and how preparation, authenticity, and connection can make a lasting impression. Whether you're an actor preparing for your next audition or a creative looking to better understand the people behind the process, this conversation offers a valuable inside look at the art of finding the right person for the right story.
