This is the Beverly Hills office for the Sheila Manning Casting, an artist's casting agency. When a film is set to go into production, one of the first steps is to cast the characters from the script with an actual actor/actress. Since there are thousands of actors who want to star in the next big Hollywood film, the casting agent filters the crowd to present to the director and producer. The agency represents artist such as actors, singers and dancers. It will prepare all contracts between the producers and the talent and will work with promoting the finished project. It will arrange interviews or auditions with producers for future films or publishing. The agency will receive a percentage of the fee the talent will earn only after it is sold, booked and paid. This agency specializes in voice-over casting for commercial advertising and animated films from the Disney studios.
