Who oversees the casting process and actors on set?

• A. Director
• B. Casting Director
• C. Producer
• D. Editor

Answer: (B)

The casting director. They run auditions, manage calls and callbacks, coordinate with agents, and work with the director and producers to select the right actors for each role. On set, the director guides performances, but the casting director handles arranging who is in front of the camera and handles casting logistics like availability or replacements, ensuring the chosen cast is in place. The editor handles post-production, the producer oversees overall production, and the director focuses on directing the actors’ performances.
