084 The Art of Casting Reality

And now for something completely different, love The Great British Baking Show but deplore The Kardashians? Hate/watch The Bachelor but ride or die with Dr. Pol? Project Runway, Top Chef, Selling Beverly Hills and Indian Matchmaking are shows that gave Lisa an insane amount of joy. Today, Lisa pivots to talking to her esteemed colleagues in the REALITY / UNSCRIPTED casting world. Join Lisa and her guests Reality Star turned Reality Casting Director Rachel Reilly (Big Brother, Traitors), Casting Director Kristen Moss (MasterChef, Big Brother, Reality Television Awards) and Emmy award winning Casting Director Jeffrey Marx (HBO's We're Here, Love on the Spectrum, Real World, Project Runway).  We talk about how unscripted casting directors do their jobs, the differing genres within unscripted (competition, lifestyle) how they find people, how they champion people with evocative stories, and what positive change Reality shows bring to the world.  And OH yes, we talk all the tea about Vanderpump Rules  Ariana, Tom, Raquel of it all!  Twitter @kMossLA Insta @rachelereillyvillegas Twitter @rachelEReilly  Inst @jeffmarxthespot Twitter @jeffmarxthespot https://instagram.com/reality_tv_castingcalls https://www.instagram.com/kristen_moss_schiazza/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D https://www.instagram.com/realityawardstv/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D
