At Fonktown, we provide casting services in Costa Rica to help you find the right talent for your audiovisual production.
We have an extensive and diverse catalog of professional actors, actresses, models and extras in the country.
However, we understand that there may be instances where you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for in the local market. In such cases, we expand our search globally and fly talent from anywhere in the world to meet your project’s needs.
Our casting team has a wide network of contacts and resources to identify and select international talent that fits your requirements. We take care of managing the hiring process, visa procedures, and any other logistical arrangements needed for foreign talent to participate in your production in Costa Rica.
Whether you need experienced models for photo shoots, fashion shows, or promotional campaigns, or if you require background actors and extras to add depth and realism to your scenes, we’ve got you covered.
How we run a casting in Costa Rica
Send us the brief, the script or the deck and your dates. Our casting team searches our catalogue of professional actors, actresses, models and extras in Costa Rica and sends you a first selection by video, so you can shortlist from anywhere before you travel. Callbacks can be in person in San José or remote, and our bilingual coordinators run the sessions in English and Spanish.
What the casting service includes
- Casting of principals, models and extras from our local catalogue, or international talent flown in with visas and travel handled.
- Image-rights releases and talent contracts in Spanish and English, so usage rights are clear before the shoot.
- If minors take part, the authorisation required by PANI (Patronato Nacional de la Infancia).
- Fittings, hair and make-up and wardrobe through our local crew in Costa Rica.
Casting is one part of our production services in Costa Rica: as your film fixer in Costa Rica we also handle filming permits, location scouting, equipment and logistics, with one point of contact and one budget. Tell us what the story needs and we come back with a proposal in 48 hours.
