Chaos Casting

My name is Chloë Curran, and I’ve helped cast projects for Netflix, ABC, NBC, HULU, HBO, FX, Lionsgate, Snapchat & the CW.

Most recently, I was associate casting director for ‘The Adventures of Cliff Booth,’ directed by David Fincher and written by Quentin Tarantino.

I’ve learned from the best, a long string of Emmy & Artios award-winning casting directors who lead by example and demonstrate what it truly means to love your job. Starting as an unpaid intern, I worked my way up at some of the top casting offices in Hollywood, and continue to learn from those brilliant casting directors as part of their team.

After 7 years in casting, I began to notice a gap in my corner of the industry. Exciting young indie filmmakers lack the resources to partner with a prestigious CD. Associate casting directors ready for the next level rarely meet filmmakers entering pre-production and ready to find their go-to casting partner.

There’s a missing link between casting’s next gen and Hollywood’s next wave of great storytellers.

Chaos Casting is an experiment in forging that bond by making classical casting accessible, transparent, and modern. Also cool. We’re super cool.

Chaos Casting offers casting packages at a sliding scale for every tier of low-budget feature film, short film, and student film. To qualify for a package rate, projects must cast based on merit, not fame. Audition-based and creative, with character first and foremost in mind.

Ordo ab Chao. Order from Chaos.
