Actress wanted - Fall film production


I am a digital media major working on a term film project that I plan on trying to complete shooting over the month of October and am looking to fill a female character's role in the piece. The character is a young very boisterous writer, the type of person who says what's on her mind but at the same time does her best to bring up the spirits of others. A great character for someone interested in playing an energized and yet playful character. Those interested I will send some sides from the script along with a more in depth description of the overall film. I am beginning production at the end of September and hope to have this role filled before the end of the month.

Still casting clean/Christian movies (Vancouver, WA/Portland, OR)

I am still accepting submissions for all available roles. (Will continue to repost this until October 15th which is last scheduled auditions.) Both of these full-length movies contain many of the same characters. I am looking to produce them sometime in the next year. Possibly start shooting in February. The goal is to shoot a couple scenes in the next couple months for promo to get financing using Kickstarter so these will be paid gigs.

Available roles are:

Males:
-James (the male lead). He must be Caucasian and preferably mid-30's. The character struggles with his past deeds and how to rectify what he has done. He becomes a Christian partway through.
-Craig - at least part Caucasian in his mid 30's to early 40's to play a molester (at least in his past).
-Daniel - a Caucasian male, in his 30's, to play an assistant pastor.
-Danny - of any race in his 30's to play the short-term boyfriend of lead female.
-Ben - of any race in his early to mid 20's. Father of a seriously ill boy.

Females:
-Ruth (long time girlfriend of James) must be Caucasian and preferably early to mid-30's to play a bitter, angry woman whose boyfriend molests their teen daughter. Somewhat of a Christian.
-Anna - of any race in her late 20's to mid 30's to play a small business owner, Christian, friend of the lead female.
-Jenna- of any race in her mid 20's to play a character who is strongly against abortion.
-Kara - of any race in her mid 20's. Mother of a seriously ill boy.
-Eva - of any race in her late teens/early 20's, irresponsible/overwhelmed mother of sick child.

Children:
-Benjamin - of any race, a boy around the age of 2 to play ill boy.
-Ian - of any race, a sick boy around 1 years old.
-any kids from the age of 3 months to 5 years for daycare scenes.
-any kids from 6 to 18 years for church scenes.

Let me know if you would fit any of these parts. Please email me a headshot or regular photo and demo reel or any available work if possible. If you don't have any work available online, that's okay; it's not necessary but please let me know. Also, including your actual age is very helpful. Thanks!

I will also need extras so if you do not fit any of these descriptions but would like to be included as an extra, please email me with your photo, demo reel (if possible), age, and other info. Thank you!

Compensation: Pay depends on role and amount of time spent on set.

This is a paid gig.

About Ephemory: Ephemory is a coming of age/falling through age story of memory, legacy, family, immigration, war, and love. We open November 9 at the Headwater's Theatre in Portland and run 3 weekends--TG is dark.

Dance Naked Productions is looking for a sound designer/DJ.

Our new show, Inviting Desire: The Dawn of Sex is an ensemble piece of theater created around the topic of women’s sexuality, and more specifically, types and styles of relationships. 

As a company, we devise the show from survey responses, interviews, and our own fertile imaginations.   We would very much like to work with a sound designer that is interested in being a part of the creation process.  Ideally, we would like to find someone (preferably a woman) who is interested in bringing her own ideas to the table, who has a wide variety of music to chose from, and who has a facility with technology (ie if we needed you to create a mash-up of different songs, you have the know-how to do that). 

The ideal candidate is open-minded and comfortable talking about issues of a sexual nature.  Available to come and experiment during the rehearsal process, improvising on the fly, creating mini-dance sets.  We like using music as prompt for movement, and would welcome your imput in that capacity.  We are also writing a number of original songs, and someone who can assist with setting those to music would be a total bonus.

The show is currently in development, and we’d like to add in a sound designer as soon as possible.  We rehearse Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and Sunday afternoons.  In a perfect world, you join us for at least one rehearsal a week until we get into tech, closer to opening (Nov. 9th). 

The stipend for this position is $300. 

Please feel free to email any questions you might have as well.

Thanks so much for reading!  Look forward to hearing from you.

(and as usual, really appreciate suggestions from the pdx community/passing this along to those who might be interested.  YOU ALL ROCK! Free spankings and hugs all around!)

OTEA Speakers Sought


The Oregon Theatre Educators' Association, a group of primarily public Junior & Senior High School teachers, is having its annual conference on Friday, October 12 in Portland.

Our Conference focus this year is specific to the NEW K-12+ National & State Standards being written to guide (& legitimize) the educational system for Theatre in public schools (this is a GOOD thing!).

A major element in that focus is the importance of relating what we do as educators to the real world of Theatre as well as what are considered "real world" skills & applications - we know we are doing it on many levels, however, we would very much like to have a panel discussion about how we can all help one another in OUR world do so even more effectively.

I would like to invite any of you involved in Theatre in Oregon to join us for this discussion!  It will take place the morning of the 12th -  if you are interested & available (or would simply like more information), please contact me off-list by September 25...I can give you more specifics about the discussion, times, locations, and obtain a little info from you!

Thank you,

Zena
