SAG - Punk actress (17 - 20) (Portland)
PDX,
I know you want an excuse to dye your hair. Perhaps get a really funky cut? And when people ask you why you can shrug and say, "Oh, I had to get it done for this series I'm shooting."
We are still looking for young (17 - 20) women to audition for the role of Alysa for "Suburban Apocalypse", shooting here in Portland.
Paying gig. SAG New Media agreement. Teaser shooting in the next few weeks and episodes shooting in the fall.
Interested?
Auditions are this Saturday (July 28) by invitation only.
Here's the character description:
Alysa - Punk hair and a sense of fashion held over from the late 80's make up the colorful plumage of Alysa. Wise cracking, loud and often abrasive Alysa has her own way forcing her way through the world. Speaking in rhymes and alliterations is Alysa's way of speaking: as creative and unique as her appearance. A hard, crusty and seldom bathed exterior disguises her emotional core. With her friend Shelly she's often sweet and corny.
Thanks.
Reply to: Send an email to hostetler.casting@earthlink.net with "Suburban Apocalypse - Alysa" in the subject line.
Compensation: SAG New Media Agreement

Casting call for web series - SAG New Media contract
Hi PDX,
I am casting for a new web series called Suburban Apocalypse which will shoot this fall in Portland.
We are currently casting three roles for a short that will be shot in early August. The three characters cast in the short will also be featured in the series.
This is a paid gig, producing under the SAG New Media contract.
There is no ethnic restriction on any of these roles.
(feel free to forward this email to anyone you think might be interested.)
The roles are:
Shelly - (15-17) Quirky and awkwardly brilliant behind her glasses, Shelly has a warm and inviting personality. She spends much of her time reading and painting pictures that are all really quite bad. Her artistic failures have never seemed to effect her creative enthusiasm. Dedicated to Alysa with all her heart, they share a special connection that if the years allowed could grow into something more than BFF's.
Alysa - (17-19) Punk Rock, towering mohawk (or other punk style) and a sense of fashion held over from the late 80's make up the colorful plumage of Alysa. Wise cracking, loud and often abrasive Alysa has her own way of forcing through the world. Speaking in rhymes and alliterations is Alysa's way of speaking: as creative and unique as her appearance. A hard, crusty and seldom bathed exterior disguises her emotional core. With Shelly she's often sweet and corny.
NOTE - Hoping for an actor who already has a Mohawk (or Punk hairstyle) or would be willing to alter their current style for the shoot.
Mason (20-23) A suburban boy who thinks he's "gangster", Mason takes on the roll of dictator by fault in a world devoid of any elders. Pants hanging half off his ass, hat on crooked, and energy drink in hand Mason takes on his world with the enthusiasm and thoughtfulness of a cage fighter.
Auditions are by invitation only and will be on Saturday, July 28 in Portland.
Thanks.
- Bruce H.

About the Film & Director
"The Curio" is a feature-length filmic memoir masquerading as an uncomfortable comedy about a recent divorcee confronting a future as a misfit loner. The film weaves scripted material, footage from 'family films' and scenes from a fictional documentary that interviews family and friends into a comedic yet poignant portrait of one man's existential crisis. Littered with dark humor, stunning Portland vistas and cast completely of Portlanders; you will be left with the sweet swell of satisfaction having taken part in this lil' gem when it becomes a Portland Classic.
Dicky Dahl sang for the art-pop band Stratotanker in New York City in the 90's, planted trees while living amongst the Mayans of highland Guatemala, and herded goats in the Spanish Sierra Nevada before turning to work on various film projects in Portland, Oregon. He co-wrote and produced 'The Ballad of Ramblin' Jack,' a documentary of cowboy folksinger and raconteur Ramblin' Jack Elliott that won the Special Jury Prize for Artistic Achievement at the 2000 Sundance Film Festival and received wide theatrical distribution. Recently, he shot & directed the acclaimed video for 'Black Hills Gold' by the band Dolorean.

Pin-Up Retro Style Models Needed (Portland-Pearl)
We are looking for models to appear in our latest calendar project. The concept is a vintage style of pin-up girls so we are seeking those types of models whether they are professional or amateur as we are looking for the right fit and look towards the artists concept. Keep in mind, that there are varying body type and our photographers initial concept sketches range from very slender to more of a buxom style figure. We do have great hair stylist and makeup staff to help you achieve the desired look.
We offer $125 for the initial shoot and then a fixed percentage of profit based on calendar sales. Our previous 2010 project netted each of the twelve models $2168, many of who were amateur status and two have already secured their spot on this project. A bonus of $250 if you are selected as the cover and an increased percentage of profit sharing. As noted in the title, this concept is likely a three calendar deal so if we use you on a continuing basis for other projects, your base payment for the shoot is increased by 20% each time. We find that when the models are familiar with the process, the subsequent shoots are more efficient and productive, so we reward that professionalism.
Those interested should email two headshots and two full body shots for initial consideration. A group interview will be held a local and reputable photographer's studio in which we are partnering with in two weeks.

The show is by arrangement with Turner Broadcasting Co. Owner of the motion picture Grand Hotel. Additional music and lyrics by Maury Yeston. Bruce Blanchard directs Lakewood’s production, a premiere for the Portland area.
Role Breakdowns

Elizaveta Grushinskaya: Female, mid 40s to mid 50s, the fabled Russian ballerina making an eighth farewell tour. Must be able to believably do some bar work and, hopefully, execute some ballet moves.

The Two Jimmys: Male, late 20s-early 30s, African-American nightclub entertainers from North Carolina and South Carolina, comedic and very charismatic, on the order of the Nicholas Brothers and/or Bobby Short. Excellent singers/dancers. Tenor (high G) & Baritone who can hold a harmony easily.

I am casting for online testimonial videos and have very specific needs.
The videos are for the Arabic speaking community so I need two young men and two young ladies of Middle Eastern heritage who speak Arabic either as a first or second language (prefer first) as the client specifically requests and Arabic sounding accent for the videos.
This will take about 30 minutes in front of the camera, you will receive an advance copy of the script and we will have cueing/prompting when we record.
The pay will be $40 cash for your time.
If you are interested please send me a note and a photo (cell phone photo is just fine).
Thanks
Eric

Actress Needed
An experienced film student looking for an actress to perform in a short comedy/satire film that will be done in a semi-documentary style format. The premise follows a young woman, Hayley McCoy, who has fallen madly in love with her car. The piece is filled with comedic bits, poking fun at the perfections and imperfections of relationships through an absurd mode of personification, while making parody of various serious news programs such as "Frontline". Hayley's character is approximately 20-25 years of age and is very upbeat, but obviously very flighty at the same time. I am enthusiastically looking to fill this role and begin shooting on this film as soon as possible. Anyone interested would need their own vehicle (however there will be little actual driving in the piece).

Itch, 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.
