Auditions: Saturday, July 30, 2012

This post contains auditions posted on Saturday, July 30, 2012.

For those of you asking about Facebook updates, PDX Auditions has been on Facebook for a few months now.  Upon updating the blog, the link to the auditions is posted on the Facebook Page. 



NOTE:   With the addition of new community groups in the area discussing various types of available acting work, there have been many requests brought to my attention on ways to improve this free resource. 

I will be working to accommodate your requests.

Please be aware that I am not the creator of the audition posts found on this page, but do my best to post only what appear to be legitimate paid and unpaid jobs for local actors, models, and crew. 

Direct all mail of concern regarding specific posts to the address found on the post itself, and not to me - I have no control over whether a large corporation chooses to pay their extras/actors or not, but thanks for sending me your thoughts on that recent craigslist post.

I will be making some site adjustments based on the feedback provided by many - separating paid and unpaid projects, student and stipend (copy/imdb) projects, and those for crew and modeling (those outside of acting).

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.

Male VO Artist Needed

Hello all -

Intersect Video, the Wilsonville based corporate/industrial subsidiary
company of Road’s End Films, has an immediate need for an American English
(en_US) speaking male voiceover artist. We prefer individuals who have their
own studio recording setup, but will consider individuals who can travel to
our Wilsonville based studio for voice recording work as well.

This work is for internal (non-broadcast) training material of an
electronics client, and pay begins at $50 USD per hour. Other upcoming work
for this client includes more commercially broadcast material that will pay
SAG/AFTRA rates.

This is an immediate need.  No phone calls please.

Best,

Carey Bruce, Producer

Casting for secondary lead in short film - Male in 30's, Tall Dark & Handsome

Yo peoples... looking for an actor for a short film we'd be shooting in the first couple weeks of July. Non-paying gig, but should be a cool piece to add to your reel. Auditions will go on in the next 3 days! Last minute casting.

Actor should be in his 30's and should fit the cliche "tall, dark, & handsome" mold. Think a GQ model with an element of danger. Email beekperson@yahoo.com with headshot/resume and so I can send a copy of the script. Below is a link to a previous short we've done (myself as writer/director, Michelle as DP), and you can find more shorts we've done on my Vimeo page.

REMINDER: Auditions this Saturday for VRT's A Break in the Clouds!


Valley Repertory Theatre, Newberg's own professional theatre company, is holding open auditions for its first production of the 2012-2013 season.

Titled A Break in the Clouds: Stories of Newberg, this original play is based on interviews of local people, offering a unique glimpse at local history. Featuring an ensemble of 6-10 actors of various ages and cultural backgrounds, the play will run for three weekends between September 20-October 7, 2012. Rehearsals are slated to begin in late July.

Auditions will take place Saturday 23, 3:30-6pm at the Chehalem Cultural Center's Central Stage. No prior experience or preparation is necessary but auditioning actors will be expected to stay for the entire duration of either audition day. Comfortable clothing should be worn.

Due to a generous grant from the Yamhill County Cultural Coalition, performers will receive a small stipend for their work.

Valley Repertory Theatre (VRT) was incorporated in early 2011 as a 501c3 non-profit organization in Newberg, Oregon. Founders Stephen Pick and Caleb Thurston are graduates of George Fox University's theatre program. Having taught and directed for several Portland-area schools and theatres, they felt drawn back to the community where they met and studied together. The company's first production was an original play titled Walk a Mile: Stories of Newberg. It featured the interwoven biographies of seven local people from all walks of life and received overwhelmingly positive response from the community. Its success was followed by three other productions in the inaugural season including the holiday classic A Christmas Carol, Cormac McCarthy's The Sunset Limited, and the Pulitzer Prize-winning comedy, Harvey. 2012-2013 will be the company's second season of live theatrical performances.

For more information about Valley Repertory Theatre and its upcoming season of productions, please call 971-832-9202 or visit www.valleyrep.org.

Reply to:  Actors are highly encouraged to sign-up for an audition date by contacting director Caleb Thurston at 503-369-2936 or calebthurston@valleyrep.org.

Background Info:

My name is Leif Fuller. I'm an award-winning actor and cinematographer starting production on my directorial debut, FEEDER. This film is years in the making and I am very excited to meet all of you and start production this summer. As a small-budgeted film, we aim to shoot on evenings and weekends in order to accommodate the cast and crew's regular working schedule. We're looking for a dedicated, hard-working cast member who will love this project as much as we do. If this sounds like something that would interest you, we'd love to hear from you. We are currently looking for a star. The character is Angela: an attractive, exotic, and mysterious woman. She speaks with utmost confidence and seduction, especially when food is involved. She seems sweet but she hides a dark past that manifests itself in the form of lies and angry outbursts.

Film Synopsis:

Andy Walsh's life seems to be going nowhere. He's under-appreciated, overweight, and generally disrespected. His only source of solace in found in an unhealthy food addiction. So it seems like a perfect match when he meets a mysterious and beautiful woman who not only likes to cook, but also loves to feed. But not everything is as it seems. Andy soon discovers secrets about her past as he descends into a world of murder, lies, and of course, plenty of food.

Actress, age 20 to 30, Thurs June 21st (oregon city)


I am finishing up a short and I need an actress for a scene to be added. It's of hands only, cleaning the sink specifically. I know it's not the most challenging, but it's a chance to meet an experienced director/producer and cinematographer. I"m one of a few female directors in town who has made a feature film. This is for a short film. If you do this for me, I will consider you for future casting. It will take no more than 2 hours (really only about 10 minutes to film, but I want to allow 2 hours in case the crew is late). 10 am to noon in Oregon City on this Thurs, June 21st. I would use my own hands, but I'm too old. Hands easily tell age. The actress must be white. The lead actress is caucasion (blond hair) so the hands must be light.

How much would you pay for a painting? Would it matter who the painter was?

Winner of the Moliere Award for Best Author, the 1998 Tony Award for Best Play and the 1996 Olivier Award for Best Comedy.

Gaffer


I am in need of a gaffer (with their own lighting equipment) for a one day/12 hour film shoot sometime the second week of August. This is a paid position and we can negotiate the payment via email. The project is a promotional film shoot for a TV pilot episode I'd like to have fully funded and filmed summer 2013. The footage filmed will be used to show networks and possible funders what the show will feel/look like. Potentially, this could lead to more work and money!

There's no pay other than a copy of the mini-short, free food & some photos of you in costume looking dangerous.

Celebrity Look-alikes Wanted (Portland/Vancouver area)

I'm a professional photographer looking for models for a series of personal shots I'd like to do. If people are always telling you that you look like a certain celebrity or famous person and you think it would be fun to dress up like them and do a photo shoot, please respond. The more you look like someone, the better... but it's not crucial that you're their doppelganger in cases where an outfit or costume makes you recognizable as the person.

This is not for a job so this is not a paying gig. I will give you copies of the photos though so in that way it's basically a trade.

If you're interested please respond with a few photos attached.

Thanks,
Ken

Actress wanted for 1 weekend night (PDX - St Johns)

I have a history of quick turn-around when it comes to scripting, filming and editing; so, if you'd like to add to your professional reel without much delay, please do not hesitate to answer the call for an ACTRESS needed this weekend. It won't be more than 3 hours indoors of either Saturday or Sunday night. Your call, actually. My professional crew is free both nights. If interested, reply with acting history in a nutshell (link to vids a bonus), and I'll send you a link to my video channel. I've been making films for under two years but have been writing for over a decade; so, you can expect worthwhile character development.

I can't pay at this juncture, but there will be food, drinks, compliments and future work if gelling occurs. Thank you.

ACTRESS for Comedy Short


Looking for an actress to perform in a short comedy film (15-20 mins.). The piece itself functions like a satirical or farcical film and will be done in a semi-documentary style format. It chronicles a young woman, Hayley, and her developing love of her car; taking a poke and playing with elements of true love and relationships. This is a student level production and therefore no experience is needed. Anyone interested would need to have their own car (however there will be little actual driving involved).
CHARACTER DETAILS: very aloof and perky type character, between the ages of 20 and 30, preferably blond or redhead, strong physical and reactive acting capabilities

Award winning writer/director working on a local, no-budget passion project. We have a great script and a very talented crew all donating time and energy to a unique and powerful project.
We are looking for non-union actors for a one day commitment.
The short, is a psychological horror story about a young Portland woman who is overwhelmed by changes in her life. She experiences alienation and bizarre physical changes, but doesn't know if they are in her imagination, a mental illness or something stranger. It's about how our lives are intertwined with technology, and the limits of our knowledge.

The roles we are looking to cast are:

Older male, 50+. Graying or grayed. Caucasian.
Younger female 30-40s, professional.
Young 30 something female, working mother.
Young 30 something male. Professional and businesslike.
Female 30-50 Office personality. Friendly taskmaster.
Voice Actor. Female 30-50.
Male, 40+, follicly challenged.
Late 20s, early 30s Caucasian hipster male, touch of nerdy augmented by general handsomeness.

If this project sounds like fun - and you feel you would be appropriate for one of the above roles please contact us with a head shot or link to work.
Though we cannot offer proper compensation, this will be a great reel piece and will likely tour local and national festivals. Our intention is to set up a time for readings this weekend, June 9th.
Thank you.

When a masterful missionary clashes with a tantalizing temptress, he doesn't have a prayer!
Set in a rundown 1920's tropical hotel, TROPICAL HEAT pits a proselytizing preacher against a passionate party girl with a past. Other characters include a curmudgeonly hotel owner named Pops, a bum named Doc, and a tormented young painter who hasn't painted anything yet because he's still learning how to be tormented. The tension between the pious pastor and the vivacious vixen continues to build and build and BUILD, until passionate fury succumbs to furious passion.

TROPICAL HEAT is a play which gains from gender-bending casting, because beyond its madcap humor, it's ultimately a tale of acceptance. TROPICAL HEAT shows the power of love can make us want to spend our lives with someone we otherwise would spend ten minutes with.

CHARACTERS
MOXIE HART: A woman of easy virtue*

REVEREND JAMES ROBERTSON: A straight-laced missionary

POPS WOODLEY: A curmudgeonly hotel owner

DOC: A bum (and good at it)

*Given the style of TROPICAL HEAT, the author encourages gender-bending casting, including casting a man in drag as Moxie.

Tony and Tinas Wedding Looking for Actors (Portland Area)

Would any actor or actress be interested in helping to put on this show?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GUWHr1Mr1s

One of the longest running shows in Off Broadway history, this delightful evening gives new meaning to the phrase "And now for something completely different!" Audience members are the guests at the nuptial celebration of Tony Nunzio and Valentina Vitale in all its tacky and hilarious glory. Following the church service is a reception where the audience joins the wedding party and their bickering families for a pasta dinner, champagne toasts, wedding cake and dancing to a five piece band.

"We've seen the future of theater and it is wild! Off Broadway's most innovative play satirizes a garish New York Italian wedding, and it's more fun when the audience joins in!"-Glamour Magazine

"You don't have to be Italian to understand the cliches lampooned."-N.Y. Daily News

"The oddest, goofiest unlikeliest hit in New York."-N.Y. Times

30 yr old female needed for instructional firearms video (Newberg)

This is a PG ad! A lot of these talent gigs kind of creep me out so I want to disclaimer this by saying that I'm looking for a normal girl. One that wears clothes.

I'm looking for someone around 30 years old who can be our model for an instructional firearms video that we'll be releasing soon. Think of a women's workout video, but for learning how to shoot. If this vague description sounds like something that you would buy, then you'd be a good fit for the video.

No previous acting or marksmanship experience is required. If you have neither, than someone who is active/outdoorsy will work great. In the video you'll be asked to wear tennis shoes, jeans, a long sleeve shirt, and maybe a hat, so please send a picture of what you will wear that matches that description. Please also shoot a short video of yourself talking into your camera phone or computer cam, explaining why we should select you, so that we can see what you look like talking on camera.

Filming will take place on the 16th or 17th.

I have a history of quick turn-around when it comes to scripting, filming and editing; so, if you'd like to add to your professional reel without much delay, please do not hesitate to answer the call for an ACTRESS needed this weekend. It won't be more than 3 hours indoors of either Saturday or Sunday night. Your call, actually. My professional crew is free both nights. If interested, reply with acting history in a nutshell (link to vids a bonus), and I'll send you a link to my video channel.

I can't pay at this juncture, but there will be food, drinks, compliments and future work if gelling occurs. Thank you.
