Michelle Quin founded the well renowned casting consultancy, Casting Couch back in 1989 and has personally cast thousands of television commercials, several popular television series and countless stills campaigns for national magazines since. She has also been responsible for the making of many well known television presenters, short films, corporate videos and student films. She has also recently cast a feature film in its entirety.
Michelle is an experienced trainer too who has spent many years teaching method drama classes for Screen Actor’s and other studios. She also conducts screen audition/screen test workshops for aspiring children, teens and adults.
With a keen sense of the industry and a highly developed intuitive ability, it’s no wonder that many stars credit her with providing their first break. Rahda Mitchell, Portia De Rossi, Livinia Nixon, Lisa McCune and Sam Johnson are a few names that Michelle has helped launch.
Michelle is well known and respected as one of the doyennes of casting in Australia and still enjoys both the ongoing challenges and the creativity that the industry offers. Equally she loves being able to inspire and foster young talent.
