casting for

tv, film, streaming, commercials…you name it.

here’s a taste:

.


Chrissy Fiorilli-Ellington is a seasoned Casting Director who also enjoys seasoned fries from Bojangles...which pretty much tells you everything you need to know. She’s classic, always serving heat, and above all, consistently brings a dash of something special. Chrissy loves and is drawn to great storytellers. If she’s working with you, chances are, she’s also a fan.

What else? Thank you for asking.

Chrissy cut her teeth working under the auspices of many of New York's most respected Casting Directors, then moved to LA and became the Head of Talent and Casting at CollegeHumor when it was literally the biggest thing on the internet (shout-out to the late 2000s!). She has a knack for identifying future superstars, and videos she cast with now-household names have been viewed billions (that’s right, BILLIONS) of times and counting. She has since graduated to larger screens, and you can find her work on network television, premium cable & streamers, and at festivals like Sundance, SXSW, TriBeCa, and Cannes.

Her primary wheelhouse are character-driven projects like Amazon's WAYNE, the feature WE BROKE UP produced by Mason Novick, REMOTE from writer/director Paul Lieberstein, and DIE HART 2 starring Kevin Hart. Her short PLEASE HOLD was nominated for an Academy Award; and to top it all off, she also cast a Netflix series for the Obamas.

If she’s good enough for Barack and Michelle, you should probably work with her, too. Just sayin’.

Real talk: here’s what you can expect while working with her. A warm, friendly, consummate professional with fresh ideas who, like those she works with and casts, is an artist at heart. Chrissy understands that casting can often make or break a project, so it’s mission critical to get it right. And one last thing, she’s funny. Did I mention that? You will get world-class expertise with a side of comedy. What else could you hope for?
