DEI is Global
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion may seem like a political football being tossed around by the current administration in America, but it’s important to remember that DEI is a global initiative and we’re living in a global economy. Coat Check Creative commits fully to diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in entertainment and casting – always have, always will. Before I speak further about the importance of DEI and it’s positive impacts, I’d like to celebrate the incredible cast below. As of January 2025 Coat Check Creative proudly locked cast on it’s latest suite of corporate training videos supporting DEI and sensitivity training for Malka Media and it’s business services industry leading client Deloitte.
The casting that started in November of 2024 included 5 separate scripts and 29 roles, each with unique asks in terms of accents, ethnicity and supporting the overall narrative arc. It’s always a pleasure to revisit talent I’ve auditioned before, and was thrilling to meet new agents and see new faces during this exciting, yet challenging casting process.
Now, here’s more information on DEI from a source that explains things much more eloquently than me: https://www.forbes.com/sites/janicegassam/2024/01/07/3-reasons-why-mark-cuban-is-right-about-dei/
