68. An Introduction to a Modern Class of Casting Visionaries- Featuring Brittani Ward
For the past thirteen years, Brittani Ward has built an impressive career, working on projects of every size. Extensive casting associate work under Emmy-award winners (Barbara Fiorentino, Amber Horn, Danielle Aufiero, Laray Mayfield, and Julie Schubert) includes one season of every Marvel/Netflix series, 50 Shades of Gray Darker and Freed, Death Note, two Jason Statham-led features, and prestigious television pilots and series.
As an independent casting director, Brittani found her niche in high-level casting strategy relative to film financing, which has segued into producing. In 2022, she partnered up with Angie Gaffney to produce feature film Single Car Crashes (which she also wrote and directed; won the 'Best New Vision' jury award at its World Premiere at Cinequest), Desire Lines (won the Special Jury award in the 'Next' section at Sundance), another feature (in post-production), and several proof-of-concept web series and shorts.
Today, Brittani lives with her husband and their daughter in Chicago. Brittani is a fierce proponent of diversity & inclusion, and prides herself on being intuitive, discerning, constructive, and accessible.
