CASTING DIRECTORS
Angela Peri, CSA, Casting Director As a former actress and stand-up comedienne, Angela knows the challenges involved in finding just the right person – both for her clients and her actors. Angela founded Boston Casting in 1991, and since then she has worked on hundreds of local, regional and national projects, from major motion pictures, including PINK PANTHER 2, THE GAME PLAN, PAUL BLART: MALL COP, THE PROPOSAL and EDGE OF DARKNESS, to television shows, commercials and corporate industrials. A member of the prestigious Casting Society of America (CSA), Angela is the recipient of the 2009 Imaginnaire Award and is one of the original board members of the MA Production Coalition. An active member of the community, Peri also lends her expertise to organizations and events related to autism.
Lisa Lobel, Casting Director A former early childhood educator in Boston and an elementary school teacher in New York City, Lisa opted for a career change and began freelancing in film production as an on-set child wrangler for clients such as Fisher Price. In 1995 she joined Angela at Boston Casting, just in time to take on the challenge of “head wrangler” for the 7,350 extras in Celtic Pride. Julie Arvedon, Director of Marketing, Casting Director For longer than she cares to admit, Julie has been involved in casting, marketing, public relations and video production in the Boston area. Prior to joining Boston Casting, she was Communications Manager at North Shore Music Theatre and worked as a video producer for WHDH-TV, New England Financial and Liberty Mutual. She was also Vice President and Casting Director at Crewstar. A past president of the Boston Chapter of ITVA, Julie currently serves on the board of the MA Production Coalition and is a member of the Board of Visitors of SpeakEasy Stage Company and Boston Women Communicators. julie@bostoncasting.com
