Testimonials
"Meeting Emily and the Team at ET Casting has changed the way I work. I am confident going into any
casting with them. On budgets large or small they have consistently knocked it out the park and several of our agency clients have singled out the success of our castings. ET Casting has become my first choice."
Ben Falk, Director, Asylum Films
"Emily and the ET Casting crew have consistently offered up some of the finest casting options for projects of all shapes and sizes. Often supplied with vague or random briefs, ET seems to often understand the
roles and briefs more than the directors who wrote them! From the initial reading of the treatment all the way through to getting our cast to set, you know you're in safe hands with ET…. even if the project itself is a dangerous one!"
Chris Massey, Head of Production, Skin Flicks
“Having worked with Em for over 8 years now in both Australia and the
UK I would recommend her for any casting job big or small. From
commercials, to music videos, feature films and TV Shows, Em
understands her clients and their casting needs being able to provide
brilliant cast again and again. Her knowledge of actors and her
creative ability to think out of the box is what often gives your
production that extra edge. Her professionalism, efficiency and love
of what she does keeps you coming back again and again”
Sam Kennedy, Producer, Partizan
The Blaine Brothers, Director - Nina Forever
"Emily and ET Casting have done incredible things for us, finding
exactly what we've needed with next to no time to think about it. No
easy task, but despite the challenges we've thrown at her, working
with Emily is always a pleasure."
###Charlie & Joe, Director Team
"Emily has always been one of my favourite casting directors. The
reason why: she's incredible at bringing a brief to life and finding
the right talent for every script. From comedy to drama, she's made my
life easy, made my director's look good, and made my client's happy
with the final product. What more could I ask for."
Roy De Giorgio, Agency Producer
"What struck me most about ET was her speed-of-light ability to get on
the same wavelength. For me it was vital to have someone who
immediately appreciated not only the nuances of the characters but
also of the production. In truth, ET does something very rare - she
makes the casting process easy for us while delivering a top-end cast.
You can't better that."
Oliver Nias, Director
"Emily is exactly the kind of casting director that us actors love to
work with and quite frankly we need more of, someone that makes you
feel comfortable, relaxed and valued. Emily never fails to get the
best from me and I always leave any casting with her feeling awesome,
whether I get the job or not."
Daniel Hoffmann-Gill, Actor / Comedian
"It has been fantastic to work with Emily on THE RIVER. She not only
has a creative flair for casting which has resulted in us working with
two of the most fabulous actors in the lead roles, but she is also a
real asset to any creative team. Her professional and supportive
attitude is perfectly complemented by her charm and wit - we can't
wait to work with her again!"
Cassandra Sigsgaard, Producer - Jeva Films
"Our project required experience, great international knowledge and
adaptability - Emily and her team proved to be a great resource."
Jules Powell, Executive Producer, MTV Networks
"Emily is a gem. As a director, you want to be "IN" the casting but you
can't always be "IN" the casting and that's where you need an Emily
Tilelli. Someone that can take a brief and then fill you with
confidence that she will deliver that brief and direct the actors,
talent, singers...artists - to where you are creatively as a director.
So important when you're looking back at the casting you're seeing
what you expect to see. Emily always delivers. Her ability to put the
actors at ease doesn't hurt either!"
Luke Shanahan, Director
"Goodoil has used Emily on a number of productions big and small over
the years and no matter what the turnaround or budget she has always
delivered beyond expectation. I look forward to using her skills on
future Goodoil projects and wouldn't hesitate recommending her to
industry peers."
Sam Long, Producer, Goodoil
"Emily has been casting commercials for Ogilvy’s Australia for many
years. No matter the brief, Emily always brought new talent to the
table and we were always spoilt for choice when it came to selecting
our final cast. Working with Emily has always been a great experience
and we’re sorry we've lost her to the UK!"
Peter Hackforth, Agency Producer
"Working With Emily and ET casting has been a truly wonderful
experience. Emily was efficient, professional and creative, but was
also a delight to work with. There is no question that we will be
working with each other again, this time as friends."
