Blonde "Bad Girl" Actress Needed, Early 20's (Portland)
Need a blonde-haired actress in her early 20's for a fun scene in a local web show. It is non-paying, at least for now. Note the hair color needs to be fully blonde, not dishwater blonde, etc. She is part of a trio of "Bad Girls" (wannabe bad girls, that is :)) and part of their distinction and identity relates to hair color. If you'd want to dye your hair or wear a realistic-looking wig, that would be okay. Looking to film in November and it will take 3 maybe 4 separate filming days (assuming each shoot lasts about 4-5 hours; there will be food) to complete the scene (it is a 20 page scene). There are a good share of moments and dialogue for this character. If interested and for more info, please send photos/resume. Please don't be flaky/wishy-washy or inconsiderate. Thanks.

Female Actress needed (Portland MCC)
Hi there. I am in need of an Actress who can sing and is comfortable playing a Lesbian for my show Cafe Christmas. The character is part of a couple who owns a Cafe in a small mid-west town. Rehearsals are basically Sundays after MCC church lets out. 1130am and some saturdays. As the performance gets closer (Dec 16th) we will have some mid week rehearsals. I need to cast this part ASAP. We have already had music rehearsals and are beginning blocking rehearsals. The show is during church service at 10am Dec. 16th. One performance only so this will not take up alot of time. The actress must be comfortable playing a Lesbian and kissing another woman. Oh and she must be old enough to have a 19yr old son that the couple have raised.
Thank you, Maury

Awesome Female Voice Over Needed!! (Portland)
We are looking for a very chill and relaxed female voice to help as voice over for a super short commercial/Kickstarter video. If you are interested please send a sample of your work, or some type of video with you speaking. You don't need to be a "professional" voice over artists, but just need to have that right voice, which is hard to explain. Something relaxed and lights. A mix of Apple with other startup style videos. If you don't have an mp3, just do a quick recording on your iphone. As of right now, this is not a paid gig, but that might change, and of course you can use the video for your resume, portfolio and whatnot. We will be recording it professionally in Portland sometime next week.
