CHAMELEON - Key Persons


Chiana Dabu

Chiana joined Chameleon in 2022 after braving the move up to the big smoke from quiet Torquay. She loves all things art, media & film. Need to find her? She's usually at a cinema, exhibition, or a comedy show. As a huge pop-culture nerd, she enjoys creating her own short-films or making cartoon drawings of her cat. Chiana has taken to casting with a natural ease and loves the fast pace, and combining her creative passion with her professional skills.

Daniella Friedman

Job Titles:
  • Member of the Casting Guild of Australia
I've always had a deep love of the theatre and performance, but I didn't want to be a performer myself. So I decided to pursue my passion for the craft via casting - and I've never looked back! Daniella is a proud member of the Casting Guild of Australia

Elisha Nathan

Elisha joined Chameleon Casting in 2012 and started as the smiling face at reception, greeting actors as they came in for auditions. 10 + years later and she still has a big smile on her dial.. but can now generally be found at her desk in the office, usually on one (or two!) phone calls, sending an email, writing a brief, and drinking a tea all at the same time. Elisha's combined experience in Performing Arts and Recruitment gave her the perfect combination of skills to move into the world of casting. Elisha has always loved the fast pace of casting, and thrives on a deadline. She also truly loves an Excel spreadsheet.
