Ken came through big time when a few of my actors aged out of their roles on one of my animated series. He had the tough task of not only finding sound-alike voices but children who were able to take on leading roles. Ken came through with incredible options in a very short time and allowed me to continue running my series on schedule and on budget. I look forward to continuing to work with Ken on my future series and films. He is an incredible resource.
Jeffrey Roos
I have hired Ken on numerous occasions for casting on camera talent for various Web/TV projects. He has surprised me each and every time with the quality of the talent he is able to find, and I will continue to use him in the future. His attention to detail, and the effort that he puts forth in each session is very apparent when going through the casting options he puts together. Also the way the casting is setup on his site is very easy to use and client friendly. I recommend Ken Lazer Casting to anyone who needs to find good union/non-union talent in NYC.

Ken is a buttoned up and thorough provider of great casting possibilities and makes the entire process smooth and easy for producers and directors in the commercial and in the film/TV worlds. I rely on him for all my casting assignments and he always delivers cheerfully and in a way that makes my life so much calmer. In crazy fields, he is an oasis of calm and he goes above and beyond to help. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Jennifer Cox
Ken has done casting for several projects I have directed. He is exceptional, no matter how obscure and complicated the profile you are looking for, he will make sure he has a plethora of options for you. From "real people" to seasoned actors going through influencers, Ken seems to know them all.
Kiyon Spencer
Ken consistently delivers: quick, thorough, personable and personally invested in the success of your project. I would highly recommend him for on or off-camera casting.
Carrie Mariani
Ken pulled through for me for a unique, experiential remote casting across the country. From initial discussions, he was informative and brought some great methods to the partnership while being able to meet my tight timing. I highly recommend and hope to work with him again. It's not an easy job for anyone, much appreciated.
Drew Fessenden
Many times have we needed to cast for multiple roles on a tight deadline: the family at home on game night, the small business owner, the corporate partners on a Zoom call from many continents, the college students, the grandparents, the toddlers. Ken has always come through with multiple and diverse choices.

Ken takes so much time and care with his acting classes and really makes sure actors have the tools they need to succeed! His class is so much more personable and specific than any other class I've ever taken and Ken is so knowledgeable and helpful! Highly recommend!
Ken’s specificity to detail is second to none. Acting is one aspect but the technical aspects and technique are something important to learn and understand for auditioning. It’s a completely different class and Ken knocks it out of the park!
Ken is a wonderful person to work with and learn from. He is detail oriented and brings decades of experience to guide actors into their full potential. 5 Star Casting Director.
Ken Lazer’s class is hands down the best commercial class I have ever taken. In addition to over 30 years of experience, Ken brings infinite wisdom, patience and humor to his teachings. I walked away with a solid skillset that has improved my auditions 100%. I can’t recommend Ken and his class highly enough!!!
Not only is Ken very knowledgeable, but he is also very hands on and makes sure you will succeed. This is something you don’t find often in these types of classes. The advice and help I was given in this class has already skyrocketed my confidence! Would recommend this class to anyone needing audition tips to stand out.
I am currently taking Ken's On-Camera Audition Class and without a doubt the information is invaluable. It is an incredible 4-class course and you can put lessons from each class to use immediately. Ken really helps you to understand what a truly, positively, stand-out audition looks like and how to create them for yourself. Ken truly cares about every student and gives each of us the amount of time we need to understand the lesson he is teaching. I am excited about auditioning again! Thank you Ken!
I’ve had my best audition experiences with Ken as a Casting director. Not only does he bring out the best in every actor in the room but he also captures the essence of what the client is looking for in the spot. On top of it all he offers classes too. My self tapes got so much better when I took his masterclass.
Working with Ken Lazer is always a delight. In an industry where many persons are only concerned about making money, it is really refreshing to find hard working people like Ken who really cares.
When I came to Ken with my project, all I had were rough boards. Ken turned the boards into providing the perfect cast for my project. He is very understanding, patient and reliable. Ken puts you at ease, he is like a great friend that wants to see you succeed.
I was initially skeptical about his services, but he quickly won me over. He is that good. With Ken Lazer, you can never go wrong. I highly recommend him.
