Auditions: Saturday, April 30, 2011

This page contains auditions posted on Saturday, April 30, 2011.

With Easter just behind us, and Mother's Day next on the main holiday list, I have been very surprised by how many people choose to shoot and rehearse on holidays, especially those centered around family. With a local professional theater company doing a 12 hour tech on Easter, many short films shooting late night scenes on the evening and into the night on Easter, numerous auditions on Easter, and a number of various auditions and film shoots on Mother's Day, I couldn't believe I would be forced to choose between spending time with family and working on a very widely celebrated holiday.

We recently discussed the struggle actors and those involved in the film and theater industry face when working to balance family and a social life with work. This is something I struggled with again as I turned down auditions and paid film opportunities to choose spending this holiday with family instead of on a film set. Would filmmakers shoot on Christmas Day? Maybe...but would you leave your kids and family to shoot for a non paying role in a short film? How about for a paying role?

What are your thoughts on working on holidays? Is this just something that comes with the territory, and did you shoot on Easter, or plan to do so on Mother's day?

Let's open the discussion and chat about your thoughts on working on holidays celebrated by the majority of people throughout the year. Would you choose to work, and what are some reasons you would choose to do so?

As always, if you are a fan of the blog, please share this with actor friends. If you have any feedback for me on how to improve my blog, share this with me so that I may work on improving the blog.

Thanks.

Local production company is looking to hire a young actress / model for the lead, non-speaking role in a CGI / live action short film.

Our second round of auditions are to be held this coming Saturday - April 30th, downtown Portland, from Noon to 2pm.

The story is entitled, "Both Bitter and Sweet Was Persephone Inside Most Incomplete." It's a tale about a young girl made of chocolate who yearns to escape the candy store where she is imprisoned.

The shoot will take place over a weekend, near the end of May, and will be comprised of 2 days of work. We will be paying $75/ day for the shoot days ($150), although we may need additional, non-paying time, for make-up tests and test-shoots.

Our target audience is young adults / teenagers... so please don't apply if you do not represent or look the age. Any ethnicity can apply for this role. Modeling / acting experience is a plus.

Our SFX artist will be using a synthetic make-up which is non-abrasive, does not dry the skin and does not cause any allergic reactions. We will also be filming on stage with a full greenscreen backdrop as the environment created takes place in a dream-like world.

With Easter just behind us, and Mother's Day next on the main holiday list, I have been very surprised by how many people choose to shoot and rehearse on holidays, especially those centered around family. With a local professional theater company doing a 12 hour tech on Easter, many short films shooting late night scenes on the evening and into the night on Easter, numerous auditions on Easter, and a number of various auditions and film shoots on Mother's Day, I couldn't believe I would be forced to choose between spending time with family and working on a very widely celebrated holiday.

We recently discussed the struggle actors and those involved in the film and theater industry face when working to balance family and a social life with work. This is something I struggled with again as I turned down auditions and paid film opportunities to choose spending this holiday with family instead of on a film set. Would filmmakers shoot on Christmas Day? Maybe...but would you leave your kids and family to shoot for a non paying role in a short film? How about for a paying role?

What are your thoughts on working on holidays? Is this just something that comes with the territory, and did you shoot on Easter, or plan to do so on Mother's day?

Let's open the discussion and chat about your thoughts on working on holidays celebrated by the majority of people throughout the year. Would you choose to work, and what are some reasons you would choose to do so?

As always, if you are a fan of the blog, please share this with actor friends. If you have any feedback for me on how to improve my blog, share this with me so that I may work on improving the blog.

Thanks.

Auditions: Sunday, April 24, 2011

This page contains auditions posted on Sunday, April 24, 2011.

Due to some upcoming early morning shoots, I wanted to give everyone a heads up that the daily post time for auditions may vary moving forward.

Now, back to our topic of discussion for the remaining few days of this week! We have spent some time focusing on finding auditions, audition preparation, and booking the right type of work. No matter how talented and gorgeous you may be, it always comes down to who you know, or rather, who knows you.

With Portland being such a small city compared to the LA and NYC markets, I am very surprised and impressed by how many networking events there are every month and even every week. Were you aware of these networking events and opportunities to mingle with Portland's film community?

With six made-in-Portland films premiering over the next six weeks, along with the monthly Portland Independent Film Meet-up
(or find it here on Facebook), the weekly get together on Wednesday nights for Megann's Night, and OMPA events, this is enough to keep any local actor busy with networking.

How important is it to make an appearance at these events, and how much does it make a difference in your career? Do you attend any or all of these events? How has it affected the work you are getting, and how have you grown from attending these events?

The big question of the week is - how does networking play a role in your acting career?

Let's start up this week's chat and discuss your thoughts about networking, attending events, and how this has made a difference in your acting career!

Performance Works NW
4625 SE 67th Ave.
Portland, OR 97206

The roles are broken down into two categories:

- Three Harpies
When most people think about Harpies, they picture grotesque, winged beings. Well, we're trying to destroy those images! Our Harpies are going to have a much different look.
Actress specifications:
- 20s or 30s
- athletic build
- skin and hair color not specified
- comfortable with appearance of body (no nudity, see costume below)

Costume: leggings, bare feet, bikini top, some facial make-up, and some natural material (bird feathers, sticks, leaves, etc.) placed into the hair.

One of the Harpies has a small speaking role. The other two will flank the first throughout the scene.

For the roles of the Harpies, the ability to change into the costume specified above (not provided by the producers), at the casting call, would be helpful, but is not required.

As of now, the shooting date for the Harpies is scheduled for May 27th.

- Three "Women at bar"
We need three women, dressed for a night out on the town, who sit at a table in a bar having some drinks. They are then engaged by the main character of the series for a brief exchange of dialogue.
Actress specifications:
- 20s or 30s
- skin and hair color not specified

These roles all have small speaking parts. The shooting date for the Women at Bar is scheduled for May 15th.

Due to the high number of Guest Star roles we cast, there is no financial compensation offered for the parts. Craft services will be available on set.

Please submit a headshot and (if available) resume.

----This casting call is for models that can act and look like powerful business people. The age group we are looking for ranges from late twenties to baby boomers. Though some wardrobe will be provided, please have at least two options of business attire.

The exact date of the shoot is being decided as we are still in pre-production.

The differences between still photography and acting in video are quite substantial. Though not required, video/acting experience is a plus.

We would like to apologize in advance for not returning all messages regarding our casting calls. We just don't have the time. Thank you for your understanding.

If you are interested please e-mail us at casting.uberstock.com with a recent picture.

We are always seeking talent for our client based projects as well as our stock footage projects.

Thank you,
Mike
