Aaron Reisberger
Casting Agent
Adventurous. Opportunistic. Entrepreneurial.
Aaron loves actors and the magic of film. His experience as a professional caster is proving challenging and fulfilling. Aaron seeks the truth from the actor in the audition room. A great performance is the goal of any actor and when needed, Aaron searches for the actor's unique nuances in the performance and magnifies it. The actor’s success is his success.
Aaron grew up in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in eastern Ohio. Seeking fame, fortune and year-round sun, Aaron moved to Los Angeles in 2004.
While in Los Angeles, Aaron teamed with The Young Storytellers Foundation, teaching children how to write their own original screenplays. Aaron shepherded classes of ten children and ten adults through the process of acting improvisation, creative story arc and character development. The class culminated in an original screenplay written by the child and the screenplay performed by professional actors on stage in front of an audience of classmates, family and friends. Witnessing professional actors analyze and perform the scripts in an extremely short period of time educated Aaron on what is and isn’t valuable in the audition room.
On the weeknights and weekends you will find him cooking up new creations in the kitchen, professional wrestling with his six year old daughter or fixing broken things.
