Casting can be a 24-hour a day job!

Who was on your submission reel? The women of daytime are un-friggin-believable actresses!

How has your casting process changed now that shows are shot so quickly?
My auditioning process has changed because production has changed.
It’s amazing.

Don’t get outside yourself.

Where will you keep this?
Next to my daughter’s ballet trophies! “I think I’m going to give it to my parents because they deserve it,” she says.

(Laughs) I have two awards, but she has three!

Days Of Our Lives airs weekdays on NBC. Check local listings for air times.

After nine (!) nominations, including one for her work on another show, Days of Our Lives (DOOL) casting director Marnie Saitta won her first Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Casting Director for a Drama Series last Friday night at the Creative Arts Ceremony in Pasadena.

“I want to thank Ken Corday [executive producer], Bruce Evans [Senior Vice President, Current & Daytime Programming, NBC], Greg Meng [co-executive producer], Albert Alarr [co-executive producer], my whole DAYS family,” Saitta told Soap Hub after her win.

“I was honestly stunned.

The actors sometimes want to make so much of those parts, but they just need to deliver the information.

You know folks at lots of shows; who do you root for? But I forgot to thank my daughter, Valentina, and the wonderful writers at DAYS! [Daytime’s] one big family, for sure. “You can have your wish list but I really feel like the right actor always ends up in the [right] role.

There are actors I see in prime time in film and they’re used to having multiple takes.

And craft services!
(Laughs) Yes, that, too!
Marnie Saitta: Wonderful! “So deserving and long overdue.”

“I’m so happy for Marnie,” says Mark Teschner (nominated for casting Y&R). The award recipients are Marnie Saitta, casting director, and Bob Lambert, her associate.

Soap Hub chatted with Saitta backstage to get the scoop on her win, which is her second in this category!

Soap Hub: How does winning again feel!

I’m so proud of all the actors.”
Where does Saitta plan on keeping her award? He’s so positive. They definitely deserve to be acknowledged.

Yes. [Bob] just makes my day happy every day. But Saitta wisely remains philosophical about the process.

“You always have to feel that the right actor will get it in the end,” she says.
