Special Casting Projects with Deseret Digital Media Video Labs: This casting page is dedicated to finding talent for family friendly and uplifting short videos produced by Deseret Digital Media Video Labs. Although I cast for paid jobs only, productions from this particular client are volunteer but are a great resource for aspiring (and experienced) actors to gain valuable experience, film credits to add to your resume, video footage for demo reels, and exposure to millions of viewers. Productions are featured on websites such as deseretnews.com, familyshare.com and major Social Media sites to engage world-wide audiences in doing good. These short videos share a different message each time and productions will be posted regularly. You are welcome to share these projects with anyone you feel would be a good fit.
