Casting Call for Dark Drama
Directors: Jacob Flatau & Scotty Bailey
Contact: jacobflatau@yahoo.com
Title: Orchidist
Log Line: An obsessed orchid collector breaks into a house to steal a rare orchid where the house’s supernatural occupants confront him.
Tag Line: At what cost?
Shooting Dates: February 25-27, 2011
Casting Date: January 29, 2011, 12:15-4pm
Muldoon
Age: 30-50
Muldoon is a sly orchid collector. He is intelligent, likable and calm, perhaps too intelligent for his own good. His obsession to find the final orchid for his collection overrides all else, no matter what the cost, even his own safety.
Lasson
Age: 30-45
Lasson is the leader of the occupants of the orchid house. He is very tall and lean with freakishly long arms (FX). Lasson is stoic, in control and self-assured of his power. He speaks in absolutes and makes Muldoon feel very nervous.
Mindla
Age: 30-60
Mindla does most of the speaking for the occupants of the house. While she appears welcoming, she has a hidden agenda for Muldoon. She is cryptic when speaking to him.
Francis/Francine
Age: 8-14
Francis is a precocious child. He/She is quiet but displays a confidence and power that seem beyond his/her years, like someone old trapped in a young body.
Dai Jin
Age: 30-50
Dai Jin is also an orchid collector. He is intelligent and cautious. He is Muldoon’s go to guy for rare orchids. He fears for the path Muldoon is about to go down but knows he can’t stop him from his obsession.
Extras: Basement Keeper & Man in Shackles
Age: 30-50
Both appear tired and worn out, as if they have had the life slowly sucked out of them. They feel like they have lost their identity.
Additional info:
This film is my senior thesis piece for film school. I wrote it and am directing it but during production Scotty Bailey will be taking over most of the Directing duties as I will be the DP. The film will play at the Hollywood Theater in June and the showing is free. We will also be submitting it to film festivals.
The film will be in shot in high definition and anyone who needs the footage for their reel just let me know. We are on a micro budget and are unable to pay cast or crew. That said this is a great experience for anyone looking for exposure or practice. Finally, I’ve worked closely with Scotty and most of the crew before and I can promise this will be a fun film to make.

Actresses for film project
I am a University student currently on a leave of absence and completing work on a project revolving around a series of silent films. Of this series I still have a few short pieces that I am looking to produce and am looking for talent to fill them. These pieces are being done in the old fast-paced and dramatic style of the early days of film with each piece running approximately 5 to 10 minutes in length. No experience needed but a good project for those into theatre acting (or physical acting as well) or just the film style in general.
