She got to work with MGM again at the end of 2014 as a casting consultant on an MGM feature film entitled "Max".End of 2014 Zora cast a pragmatic gritty urban tale about Latino gangs set in East Los Angeles called "I Am Gangster". This film proved to be a challenging yet gratifying experience casting sixty-six speaking roles predominately of Mexican descent. Then she finished off the year with a martial arts themed feature "Untitled Livi Zheng Project" (fka "The King's Rook").In 2015 Zora had a wonderful experience working with Sean Stone (Oliver Stone's son) on 'Enter the Fist and the Golden Fleecing" and worked again with director Katherine Brooks ("Loving Annabelle") to cast her follow-up feature attaching Jill Hennessey to play the lead in "Confidential".At the end of 2015 Zora partnered up with casting director Anissa Williams ("In Living Color") and has had the pleasure of already casting three feature films together. 1) "Cops and Robbers" - attaching actors Michael Jai White, Tom Berenger and 40 others. 2) "IF" for director/actor Mario Van Peebles we attached William Fitchner, Paul Rodriguez, Brad Carter and 43 more actors. 3) "Puberty" for director Eddie Alcazar and Flying Lotus actors attached are Abbie Cornish, Garrett Wareing and 23 other actors. Zora and Anissa are prepping the first ever Gospel theatrical piece called "The Gospel Truth".Zora also has projects in development, such as "Nightmare City" a remake of Umberto Lenz's 1980s horror cult classic in which Zora has already got 'letters-of-intent' from Kristanna Loken, Lou Ferrigno, Ray Wise, Tony Todd, Emilio Rivera. "To the Very Gates" a period piece set in WWII Germany (based on the true story of Marie Reille); an action Sci-Fi feature "Dead Space" in which she has attached Steven Seagal and Chuck Liddell. And a western about the time Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid spent in Patagonia called "Sudestern".So it continues to be an exciting time for Zora!Zora has also made a name for herself as an ACTING/AUDITION COACH.
