As the Casting Director for FMT with Danielle Smith, we street cast the majority of the actors for this project directed by child. We visited Haitian restaurants and churches striving to get at the heart of family life as Summer prepares to be wed in this ritual pre-marital ceremony surrounded by women who will usher her into this next stage of life.

As the Casting Director for Jill Scott’s music video with Danielle Smith, we wanted to emulate the energy of a Miami club scene with Jill Scott at the helm as “Diamond Galore” who showers her attentive audience with grace. Live music transforms the club scene into a glamorous night on the town. We found talented violinists, dancers, and unique faces to invigorate the night out.
