Latino Actorfest Pairs CDs with Performers

“If you look at the American Idol contestants this year, there are four Latinos,” said Fox Diversity Development consultant Janice Tanaka during Back Stage’s Latino Actorfest on March 7. Her words reflect the growing visibility of Latinos in the media, a welcome fact for the 320 performers who attended the event in Dana Point, Calif.

Held as part of the ninth National Association of Latino Independent Producers annual conference, the daylong series of open calls brought together top casting directors and representation with Latino actors. More than a dozen industry professionals participated, including Mark Teschner, casting director of ABC’s General Hospital; Anthony Krauss of CBS Diversity Casting; Rosalinda Morales of FarMore Casting; Jaime Ferrar of the Jaime Ferrar Agency; and Iván de Paz of DePaz Management.”*
