About Us

fz casting is rooted in instinct, authenticity, and a deep love for the casting process. Founded by casting director Frank Zabilka, we've been casting projects across the U.S. since 2015 - primarily in Chicago and the Midwest, with credits that also span New York City, Los Angeles, San Antonio, Detroit, Orlando, Miami, Minneapolis, Scottsdale, Vermont, Virginia, and more.

Whether it's a bold national campaign or a deeply personal narrative short, we treat every project as its own - finding the right talent to bring it to life. 

Our client list includes legacy brands and rising creatives alike: The Home Depot, Anheuser-Busch, A&W, Buick, Cadillac, Lincoln, Chevrolet, GMC, Subaru, Ford, Toyota, Mountain Dew, Corona, Walmart, Potbelly, Nickelodeon, and United Airlines, among many others. From comedy spots to real people campaigns, our casting sensibility is both grounded and forward-thinking.
