H.Cherdon Casting & Crewing Production Services

Casting Director & Crewing Production Services

Supporting narrative, commercial, and media productions with casting direction & local crew sourcing throughout Texas and surrounding markets.

Designed for productions that need a reliable regional partner to help identify strong actors and connect with experienced local crew, without spending weeks building those networks from scratch.

Production Services

 

Casting Direction

End-to-end support for sourcing and organizing performers.

• Role breakdown consultation
• Targeted outreach to vetted regional actors
• Submission screening and curated selects
• Audition and callback coordination
• Availability verification and communication through selection

Production retains full control over hiring decisions, contracts, and payroll.

Local Crew Sourcing

Connection to trusted Texas-based crew across departments.

• Referrals for key positions and specialty roles
• Availability checks and introductions
• Local-hire coordination for visiting productions
• Guidance navigating regional hiring logistics

I do not employ crew or negotiate rates.
I connect productions directly to professionals.

Regional Production Support

For out-of-market teams shooting in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, or nearby areas.

This service streamlines local hiring so your team can focus on production rather than infrastructure.

For Talent & Crew

We maintain a curated database of actors and crew across Texas and nearby markets to help productions find qualified local hires. If you’d like to be considered for future opportunities, I encourage you to submit your information and materials for inclusion. Submission does not guarantee employment.

Process & Typical Timeline

Week 1 — Project Intake & Breakdown
Production shares scope, timeline, and needs. I finalize role breakdowns and begin targeted outreach to vetted actors and/or crew.

Week 2 — Submission Review & Curated Selects
I screen submissions and present a focused shortlist for your review.

Week 3 — Callbacks & Confirmation
We coordinate callbacks (if needed), confirm availability, and align on final selections while I manage communication through this phase.

Week 4 — Handoff to Production
Production hires directly and moves into prep and shooting with confirmed local talent and crew.

Important Notes

This is a production-facing service. I do not represent talent, procure employment, or charge actors for casting consideration.
