Casting Lead Male Role

NW FILM CENTER PROFESSIONAL-STYLE FILM EXPERIENCE!: SHORT TO BE SHOT ON 16MM FILM

HEART is a 20 minute NARRATIVE short film, featuring EXPERIMENTAL elements.

The story is about Jonas and Kenvin Kierkowzki's struggle with their unique neuroses. Each of these brothers has chosen to deal with their involvement with the death of their younger brother in a different and troubling way. The film also addresses their shared boyfriend and this complex relationship.

The project will be directed by the talented team of Stephanie Hough and Taylor Turner. This will be their 7th short film together, and it will be the THESIS PROJECT of Hough's certificate program in film at the NORTHWEST FILM CENTER.

Lead Role
JONAS KIERKOWZKI: 27 - 35 year old male, average build. Jonas suffers from OCD-like neurosis that expresses itself in his obsession with creating minimalism environments in every facet of his life. The strict way in which he lives serves as a means to quell the guilt he feels as a result of witnessing his brother's childhood death. This is a very demanding role--subtle dialog requires that the actor will need to express many of these emotions internally and not be able to rely on situations or dialog to get across these ideas. Film experience required.

This is a "no-budget" film production, so NO monetary compensation can be offered.

Actors will be wonderfully fed, get the experience of a small, organized shoot and have the opportunity to use this film on their reel.

Production will occur in Spring 2012. There will be preparation time required for the actors with some unconventional rehearsing techniques.

Please be prepared to bring a resume with photo, and monologue to perform. Auditions will be
videotaped. They will be held at:

Location: NW Film Center 934 SW Salmon St, Portland, OR
Date: January 25th

Casting call for two film projects in PDX (N. Portland)

We are casting for two projects here in Portland, one is comedic (a paying gig), the other is a character based drama with strong characters (non-paying).

PAYING GIG

A series of humorous shorts centered around a bar, satirizing sitcom conventions while developing an intriguing and complex ensemble of characters. Actors should be experienced in comedy. Several parts available, many with lines, some without. Most of the parts are for people between the ages of 21 and 35, but we will be considering men and women of all ages and backgrounds. This is an ongoing project, and if hired you will be payed per day. Compensation varies from part to part.

NON-PAYING GIG

We are making a character-heavy 40 minute independent short film with a large cast, all speaking parts. This is ideal for people who are only now getting into acting, as we are looking for new faces. The more diverse the cast the better, so we will be considering men and women of all ages and backgrounds. Actors should be able to improvise from provided material, and should be comfortable with themes of infidelity, dishonesty, and heartbreak. Most of the people cast will work one day, and all actors will be given a copy of the film when it is finished, as well as opportunities to interact with the public at screenings, panels, et cetera. The project is an experiment in high-brow low-budget cinema, and will likely be a satisfying and freeing experience for everyone involved.

Please respond to this ad via e.mail, with a current head shot and any applicable experience. Make sure and specify which project you are interested in auditioning for. Auditions will be held Monday, January 23rd in North Portland, from 2:30pm to 5pm. Specific directions will be sent via e.mail.

Actresses for Vampire Film (Portland)

Wanted: two actresses to play a vampire and a vampire victim in short, simple film.

Basic plot: a passionate, free-spirited vampire couple is bored one night and decides to seduce and kill a boring, domestic couple . . . solely for the fun of it! The male of the vampire couple feeds on the female of the human couple, and the female vampire feeds on the human male.

Experience required: None required (but not discouraged either); just looking for someone interested in experimenting with different roles in power and pleasure on film.

Age requirement: Must be at least 18 years old. The film contains NO NUDITY, but does deal with implicit sexual and violent themes (it is a vampire movie).

Compensation: A copy of the final film and the fun of making it.

Interested? Send picture and any relevant info.

Actor/Actress wanted - dramatic short film

As part of my immersion into my digital media and film program in school I am putting together a short dramatic piece exploring the subconscious. The piece follows a young man, who loses total consciousness and in his blacked out state encounters a young woman of whom when he regains consciousness believes he has always known her.
The two characters are both in their early 20s. Paul, the male lead, is a clean cut, somewhat intellectual looking young man. The female lead, Daphne, is a rather simple yet attractive young woman with a slight aura of shyness to her character.
No experience necessary.

Actress for Car Comedy Film

I'm a college student, currently majoring in digital media and film, putting together a short film (roughly 15 minutes in length). More a farce than anything else, it's chronicles a woman who falls in love with her car and all the experiences they share together (such as courtship, and yes, even marriage). Very comedic material, and I am looking for an actress to play the leading role. She is approximately 20 years in age and has a very upbeat, perky and almost childish demeanor. No experience required.
