SARAH HALLEY FINN, C.S.A. and RANDI HILLER, C.S.A. (Casting) joined forces in 2000 to form Finn/Hiller Casting, and together they have cast a broad range of films spanning every genre. From larger action-driven films like “Swat” and “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines” to character-driven pieces such as “Life as a House” and “Crazy/Beautiful,” they are constantly engaged in the search for fresh ideas, unique performers and the highest caliber of work. Some of their other credits include “Miracle,” “Blue Crush,” “A Cinderella Story,” “Coach Carter,” and the upcoming films “Stealth,” “Crash,” “Into the Blue,” and “Dreamer.

In addition to casting, Finn/Hiller has begun co-producing independent films and is proud to include “Crash” and “Marilyn Hotchkiss' Ballroom Dancing and Charm School,” which premiered at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival, among their credits. They also cast and co-produced the independent film starring Johnny Knoxville, “Grand Theft Parsons.”

Randi Hiller has cast a variety of films from smaller budget independents to large action blockbusters. She won the Artios Award for Best Casting in an independent feature for her work on “In the Bedroom.” Three of the lead actors in this film received Academy Award nominations and the entire cast was nominated for the 2001 Screen Actors' Guild awards. Ms. Hiller has also received Artios nominations for Best Casting in an independent feature film for “Clay Pidgeons” and, along with Ms. Finn, nominations for Best Casting in a drama for the feature films “Life as a House” and “Crazy/Beautiful.”

Other credits include “The Haunting,” “The Peacemaker,” “Cheaters,” and “Sweet November.” She began her career as a casting assistant on films such as “Outbreak” and “Mi Familia,” then became a casting associate on several films including “Twister” and “Inventing the Abbots.”

Sarah Finn has a degree in theatre from Yale University and began working off-Broadway in New York City. She acted, directed and produced theater before coming to work in casting. Producing at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in 1997 with Ensemble Studio Theatre-The L.A. Project, she won the MCI Jury Award for outstanding theatre production. She then joined Paramount Pictures as Director of Feature Casting, where she cast such films as “Varsity Blues,” “200 Cigarettes” and “Mission: Impossible 2” and oversaw a range of other films.
