TRAVEL CHANNEL - 2 Male actors (Chinatown, Portland)

The Travel Channel will be shooting a special on the Portland Shanghai Tunnels. They are shooting Friday beneath the city streets in Chinatown in the actual Shanghai Tunnels, where portions of the movie BLOODLUST were shot (www.gabrielmaitreya.com for more info).

They have several volunteers for some brief reinactments to sutaway to during their descriptions of the tunnels' history, but are looking for 2 more male actors (ideally 20-30).

Shooting will begin this Friday at 1:45. They will have all extras done within 1-2 hrs.

There is no pay for the actors in these short reinactments, but here are also no lines, the shoot will take very little of your time, you will get screen credit and its for a nationally broadcast program on TV/internet. Also, one of the people appearing in the program works with the BLOODLUST director and if you do well you will be recommended for future paid work. The Travel Channel is in town from NY but they would also provide valuable networking opportunities. Also, if you are a photographer, this is a great way to gain access to the famed tunnels and take pictures first hand of places few people get to see in person.

If interested, you will need to send your contact info ASAP to be considered. The shoot is THIS Friday.

Male Child Actor wanted for Leading role in Film (Portland)

We are 2 directors looking for a leading role for a full-length motion picture (Working title: "Becoming"). Seeking a male child actor, between the ages of 9-12. Must be physically fit, outgoing and personable. This is a full movie, not a short film. The youth's character is the main character of the first half of the film. A basic summary of the boy's story: This is a grand love story (his parents), a boy's life on a farm. He is being raised to be a hard-worker, to have morals, etc. But his Father is perhaps too hard on him while raising him. The boy's Father is secretly a genius and has a cybernetics laboratory for healing paralyzed people, the boy is also secretly a genius with computers. In the end, the boy creates a tug-of-war between his parents, and finally divorce results. (Later in the film, the boy is shown grown up, and he in his final scene is revealed to have been destined to be a "superhero" of sorts). This role will involve strong acting, personality, green screen work, special effects. We are slated to film this in the end of August/Early September. The boy will initially have more scenes and therefore time commitments than most of the other actors. It would be best for all involved probably to try and take advantage of summer vacation time availability. This is volunteer work, no compensation available (it was all invested in pre-production)- But you will receive a full screen credit and IMDB listing. We will need and expect a strong degree of commitment and reliability. Due to this actor being a minor: We expect and need one parent to be present at most times. (Please do not bring the entire family along to the set!). (One of us is a parent of a 9-year old, so we are fully understanding and considerate of any concerns you may have). This will be a rare, enriching opportunity for your child, and memories of a lifetime will result. This will be great for their acting resume. This film has received and will receive every advantage, and will also be submitted to Cannes, Sundance, etc. We will only be seeking distribution from Hollywood, and that is the strongest position to be in. We have spent almost 5 years on this production from the script to the world-class props, and will be filming with top equipment. This is a great opportunity, and one you will be glad you were involved in. Please send headshot photos and/or reel footage (or links to it) of your child's work. If you know any other actors that might not fit this role, please also have them contact us. This will have a large, ensemble cast and we are casting currently for many roles. cDark Productions

(Please, no more submissions from girls! We have no girl child roles)
