Founded in 2019, Harriet and Rosen ADR (HR Casting) is an entertainment company headquartered in NYC that brings an innovative and exciting perspective to ADR (Audio Dialogue Replacement), Loop Group, and Voice Casting.

HR Casting provides the voice acting services productions need to help a project reach its full potential. We work with top agents in the industry and have a diverse talent base of authentic, multifaceted, and bilingual actors that help bring any project to life through sound.

HR Casting founders, Sienna Jeffries and Cherelle Cargill are SAG/AFTRA actresses with approximately 20+ years of acting experience in commercials, TV & Film, theater, and ADR. Below are some of the projects that Cherelle and Sienna have been featured in:
ADR - Ocean’s Eight, Girl’s Trip, HBO’s The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Blue Bloods, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
Sienna and Cherelle’s Loop Group experiences as actresses prompted them to establish their own company to contribute their considerable talents and expertise to the voiceover industry. HR Casting hires talent that can add the necessary sound texture to a project to help an audience visualize each scene as if they were there. If we see it, we should hear it too. We strive to find talent that most closely portrays a visual. We’re big on going after the “real thing” with “real people”.
Some of the Film/TV productions that HR Casting recently worked on include: Timmy Failure, Project Power, The Glorias, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, Judas and The Black Messiah, and Mosquito Coast Season 1.
