Casting Notice for Short Comedy Film to be shot in Portland February 19-20

AUDITIONS THIS SATURDAY - FEBRUARY 5th

GHC is an independent short film being produced by local filmmakers in the Portland area. We are holding auditions this Saturday, February 5th from 9am to 12pm. Please read descriptions below and if interested, submit headshots and/or resumes to the e-mail address provided. We will be making calls on Wed Feb 2nd to begin scheduling the auditions. This a no-pay gig as the little money that is available for this independent project will be going to equipment, location fees, etc. Food will, of course, be provided along with a copy of the final project.

The script is an over-the-top look at suburban adolescence and the ridiculous egos and competitive nature of teenage boys.

CRAIG(playing for age 16)
Straight-laced Craig loves being average. He is an average teenager living in an average town getting average grades at school. His life would be perfectly average were it not for his mother, the ridiculously attractive MRS. MASON. Craig is obsessively protective of her and has no patience for MILF jokes, especially when they come from his best friend and sworn enemy, STANLEY.

STANLEY (playing for age 16)
Devious, calculated, and a pathological liar, Stanley is Craig’s longtime friend and arch nemesis. His career ambitions include worldwide anarchy and general mischief. Currently, his favorite hobby is making people feel uncomfortable.

RICHIE (playing for age 14)
Richie is unquestionably loyal to his hero, his older brother Craig. He is helpless and whiny, but also the voice of reason for this trio. The quintessential momma’s boy, his recent foray into puberty and the discovery of his mother’s hotness have left him entirely confused.

MRS. MASON (40’s)
Mrs. Mason is bubbly, flirtatious, and completely unaware of the effect she is having on the developing young minds of teenage boys. She’s desperate to connect with her sons and be that ‘cool mom’. Dresses way to young for her age. Missed the Ed Hardy craze by at least 3 years. Not the sharpest tool in the shed, and never will have to be.

Dancers for Earth Day Production

Casting dancers for remaining roles in Earth Day production

Performance Dates: (Friday April 22nd, and Saturday April 23rd)
Performance Location: Seattle, Washington (venue TBA)

Auditions will be held Saturday February 5th, Saturday February 12th, and by appointment.

Law of Life, A Pathwalker’s Journey incorporates dance, live music, and spoken word to tell the story of a young woman’s journey of self-discovery as she learns that all humanity shares a common heritage of living in sustainable, nature-based communities. She is empowered to embrace her sacred connection to the Earth while dealing effectively with life in contemporary society. The work is inspired by the writings of Daniel Quinn, Deep Ecology, and anthropology.

Featured Roles:
The Pathwalker---a female dancer who guides The Seeker to understand the wisdom of the Earth and face the challenges of contemporary society with fluidity and grace. The Pathwalker is ethereal, mystical, playful, wise, and compassionate.

The Seeker---a young woman yearning for harmony amidst the chaos of contemporary life. Guided by The Pathwalker, she discovers profound truths. The Seeker is sincere, emotionally vulnerable, and authentic as she passes through stages of awareness and personal growth.

Additional Roles:
Core dancers for supporting roles (any gender). Core dancers are integral to the work, which is ultimately and ensemble piece, embodying essential aspects of the narrative through shifting personas and emotional shadings.

Connection to the themes of the performance and improvisational ability is a strong plus.

The performance is planned for Earth Day weekend, 2011 (Friday, April 22nd and Saturday April 23rd), and requires a commitment of one Saturday rehearsal per week in February and March, with additional rehearsals in the weeks directly preceding the production. We envision this as an ongoing connection to the community centered around an Earth Day performance, with additional performances to be determined.

There is no monetary compensation at present; however, dancers will receive a video of the performance as well as a book and CD of the performance poetry. Members of the original cast will have first opportunity to participate in future performances and a planned DVD project.

A synopsis and two spoken word/musical selections from the production are online:

I'm looking for an actress that looks to be late teens to early twenties (give or take a few years) for a leading role in a several minute long short film that I'm directing. The part will have very few lines, but a lot of fight choreography and coordination. If you have experience in this, it would be a plus, but not completely mandatory. The part is for a cute/sexy girl, will be dressed sexy, ect. While we'll be safe, expect to get a few bumps and scratches!

About me: I'm a director of both animation and live action films, and do a lot of visual effects and action themed things. Here's the trailer to my last film, James vs Reality: http://www.vimeo.com/15135199 and my animated film The Chronicles of Nerm: http://www.vimeo.com/4268602 .

You don't need to memorize a single line, just sign the talent release and read the cue cards. Less than 4 hours of acting. Sandwiches and Soda Pop.

Casting, Seattle Photoshoot, Attractive Professional Looking Males

We are casting for a photoshoot and looking for a stylish male who looks very good in a suit,
or comparable attire.

The date is TBD depending on model and location but I expect in the next few weeks to shoot.

The theme of the shoot is super high quality executive portraits. So if you are handsome and can look
business like, please apply.

These are going to be in the studio and also outside. The outside shoot is going to be technically quite elaborate
as we are going for stand out shots.

This is a pretty low budget shoot so you will have to dress yourself. You will need to have a
sense of style. Age isn't really important. Youth never hurts, but not required. More, a confident
attitude and a willingness to play the part of a high powered business person, a world
renowned film director, a young entrepreneur is what we need.

A good photogenic face is very, very important. 5'9 and taller. In shape. All races.
Please have a suit or other attire that's sharp and stylish.

Models will get photos for their portfolio and hopefully have fun in the process!
Models will need to sign a standard release.

A Copy of the Script Will Be Sent Upon Request.

No previous acting experience required to audition.

Roles needed:
1 Girl (Age: 7-10, Hair Color: Brunette or Black)

Independent film casting call.

We are currently filming a production in the area. We are in need of extras of all types for general background.

A Stripper (Female, the scene does NOT involve her dancing and she is dressed normally)
Three different love interests of the main characters (female)
Strip club manager (male, ideally a big man)
Kidnapping victim (female)

The last roles are the members of a motorcycle gang.

We need both males and females for this group, we have professional riders to actually ride the motorcycles so don't worry if you don't know how to ride.

General extra's are unpaid (we don't have budget to film a lot of extra scenes so if you come out you will almost certainly be in the final cut of the movie). The supporting roles are paid $250 a day and the gang members are paid $300 a day.

Female actor/voice actor needed

Developing a supernatural thriller novelette to turn into a recorded book (sort of like a podcast). Need a female actor/voice actor 30-40ish to record the book intro (you would be reading about 5 pages right now). Would like a preliminary recording to take place by 2/2 but that might be pushing it. (I have a studio critique next week)

Skills needed:
Previous acting and/or recording experience
Subtle character personality development
Ability to read male and female parts
Jamaican/West Indian accent a plus plus
British accent a plus

I'm a graduate student in the art department of PSU and am working on this project as part of my art practice. As a creative myself I value talent, but as a student am only able to pay $15/hr per recording hour. This first session will probably take about 2-3 hours. I will give you what we record as an MP3 to use on your reel if you like.

This will be a fun project! If you are interested let me know, I would love to chat with you about it and send you the text you will be reading from. I can also provide you with a sample of another podcast I did if you want to know what you're getting yourself into. If this project sounds like it's not exactly for you, maybe you know someone it would be perfect for? :)

Thanx!

Compensation: $15/per recording hour
