International Casting Directors Network

On February 13, 2005, during the Berlin International Film Festival, fifteen casting directors from seven countries have founded the International Casting Directors Network.

The initiative came about in connection with the EFP project SHOOTING STARS during the Berlin International Film Festival 2005. It is the first network of its kind and is aimed exclusively at casting directors who cast feature films. Up until now, casting directors were only organized in national associations.

The network offers casting directors the chance to exchange ideas on an international level about their different ways of working, to take advantage of synergies with international co-productions and to attract greater attention to the work of casting a film.

The founding members of the network established following criteria's to join the network:

• only casting directors working in the field of cinema productions are accepted
• the network is designed for casting directors only (no agent/casting director or manager/casting director).
• new members must be established professionals in their home countries (experience)
• new members should have done at least 3 international co-productions
• new members should have at least 3 recommendations by other members
