We are delighted to welcome Casting Director Gaby Whyte-Hart for her first workshop with TAG.
Actors will then be given the opportunity to “audition” their scene in-front of the group, Gaby will then provide detailed feedback and discuss what can be discovered in a second reading, whilst building on what worked in the first.
There will be opportunity for questions to be answered as they come up during the workshop as well as a Q & A towards the end of the session.
Gaby Whyte-Hart
With a career spanning more than 15 years, Gaby Whyte Hart started working in the film industry at the age of 17. She attended the New York Film Academy and King's College London, where she received her BA in Filmmaking For The Screen. Whyte Hart subsequently went on to produce and direct several short films, which performed successfully at various film festivals globally and garnered four nominations and one win. She produced and cast her first feature film Dead End in 2011, which was nominated at the Washington DC Film Festival, and won Best UK Feature Film at the International TV and Screen Awards in London.
This led to Gaby's move to Los Angeles, where in 2019 she produced and cast the feature film Becoming, starring Toby Kebbell, Jason Patric and Penelope Mitchell. Becoming was named as one of the top 20 horror films to watch in 2020 by Thrillist. She has an extensive list of contacts both in the UK and the US. Gaby now works primarily as a casting director, collaborating with talent such as Toby Kebbell and Nicholas Cage. Gaby's latest work is casting for DIRTY ANGELS, directed by Martin Campbell (Casino Royale, Goldeneye). Gaby has cast stars such as Ruby Rose, Eva Green, Maria Bakalova, and several actors from Netflix's hit show Fauda, including Rona Lee Shim’on and George Iskandar. Gaby is currently casting for directors such as Phillip Noyce, Martin Campbell and Bobby Moresco on their upcoming features. Throughout her years of casting, she has nurtured wonderful relationships with top casting agencies in the world — CAA, Independent, WME, Gersh, Hamilton & Hoddell, Curtis Brown, UTA are all in Gaby’s address book.
