Hiring Actors for Promotional Events
We are currently casting promotional actors 18 and up for product demonstrations throughout the greater Portland area. This is a great opportunity for actors looking to supplement your income and fill in the gaps between gigs.
Why? Actors make great product demonstrations come alive! Actors can memorize a script, engage an audience, take direction and are comfortable on a "TV like" set.
Why does the acting community love to work for us? "Flexible hours to make auditions", "Do what I love everyday, being on stage and talking to people", "Not a desk job", "New sets, new people and new locations to perform at all the time".
We are looking for very passionate and talented people, and whether you're an amateur or professional actor we want you to work with us.

Casting Notice
I need to find a replacement actress to play the female lead in a scene we're filming for a kickstarter. Super informal auditions will be held Tuesday night (that's like tomorrow).
This will be an small action scene where the girl saves the boy.
Here's the part
Rehearse & Filming Dates October 13th/14th (Saturday & Sunday)
Shana/Female Lead
The team’s only female agent, smartest too & hasn’t gotten over breaking up with the love of her life.
At least shoulder length hair, preferably red or willing to color. We may have a wig but prefer natural hair.
Age: Early 20s to Late 20s
Average to tall in height with a small to average build. Wardrobe has already been bought. The top is listed a medium but it runs small. Pants was a size 4. We can replace the pants but not the top.
How much does it pay? Nothing but lunch and something to add to your reel. If we have a successful kick starter we can film the entire short and then pay the actors for their work in that.
Reply to: Private Message or email pdxfilm2000@comcast.net if interested.
