------------------------------------------------ Actors needed for senior film! (NW Portland)Hello! I'm Richard, a filmmaker attending the Art Institute of Portland, and I'm looking for cast for my senior film, "Bad Habit"!
"What is "Bad Habit?'"
"Bad Habit" is an absurdist comedy in the tradition of Mel Brooks and "Airplane!" era David and Jerry Zucker.
"Who are you looking for?"
There are two characters: Sister Virginia and Abbot Costello
Sister Virginia Young and new to nunnery, Virginia came to the monastery to escape the dangerous life she had been living. Though the monastery and its residents readily welcomed her, she has come to suspect that it may not be the bastion of virtue she originally thought. Not wanting to cause any unnecessary strife, she approaches the abbot of the monastery in the hope of finding an explanation for the goings on around her.
Desired Actress Traits -Young looking (mid-twenties or thereabouts) -Light build (for the costume) -Comfortable in a slightly revealing outfit (no nudity of course)
Abbot Costello The abbot of the monestary, Costello is well aware of the less-than-virtuous activities going on and actively embraces them. Everyone is only having fun after all, so what's the harm? Playful by nature, he can't help but to pepper his speech with double entendres suggestive asides. Unfortunately he can get carried away at times, and when Sister Virginia comes to him for advice he accidentally takes the joke a touch too far.
Desired Actor Traits -Middle-aged (40+) -Any build -Can bounce eyebrows
"When are you shooting?"
Shooting is scheduled for Saturday, March 9th. This will be a one day shoot. More specific details will be provided prior to shooting.
"How will I be compensated?"
Actors will be provided $100 for the day, as well as a DVD of the finished product for their reels. As well, if you come to the premiere I will buy you a drink.
"When and where is casting?"
-Where: The Art Institute of Portland, 1122 NW Davis St, Room 310 -When: Saturday, February 2nd, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; each actor will be allotted a fifteen minute block to audition
If you are interested, please let us know no later than 10 p.m. on Thursday, January 31, so that we may provide you with a copy of the script. Please then confirm whether or not you will be attending, and what time frame works best for you, no later than 4 p.m. on Friday, February 1st. We will then let you know what time you are scheduled for no later than 10 p.m. Friday.
The dialogue, though comical and lighthearted, is suggestive, and there is a significant age difference between both characters. This is why we will be providing each actor a copy of the script prior to the casting call, so that they may decide if it is something they are comfortable performing.
Please bring headshots, resumes, and any other materials you would like. We will be providing sides for you to read from, but feel free to deliver an additional monologue if you have one prepared.

Dan, avid Leprechaun enthusiast, and his best friend Josh have been trying to find evidence that Leprechauns exist (Dan saw one on a Boy Scout camping trip when he was younger).

His parents, friends, and fellow townsfolk are interviewed and asked about what they think happen to Dan.

BILL MACKENZIE: 50's-60's, any size/build, mustache (or ability to grow one). Think someone like Ron Swanson. TAMMY MACKENZIE: 50's-60's, and size/build, shorter hair is preferable.

I'm looking at doing a reading over two shows of Part Time Playhouse the first Sundays of May and June.
http://www.youtube.com/user/ptplayhouse
This is a NON-paying reading for community TV at
MetroEast Community Media 829 N.E. 8th Street Gresham, OR 97030
The show airs live the first Sunday of the month at 7:00 pm. Cast members need to be on set no later than 4:30 pm for a rehearsal. Some cast members will need to commit to both Sundays, some to only one.
The benefit to you is you will receive a CD of the show you can use for your resume and gain experience with a television studio.

Characters:

There will be role doubling, so need no more than 8 cast members. As this is a not for pay reading, we will keep your time commitment to a minimum. I would like to find a cast now, hand out scripts, have one rehearsal a bout a week before the first show in SW Portland, the second rehearsal at the station in Gresham.
Email to arrange an audition time. Head shots and resumes are always welcomed, but not required.
Auditions will be in SW Portland between Raleigh Hills and Sylvan. It is NOT bus friendly, do NOT think you can walk there. If you use public transportation please be sure to say so and we will make arrangements to accommodate you needs.

PRODUCTION ASSISTANTS FOR SHORT FILM I
am currently looking for 2-3 Production assistants for a film I am
beginning production for on February 5th through mid March 2013 and will
need folks to be available 3-6 shoot days during this time period . I
don't necessarily need someone with a lot of experience but a few hard
working people who are passionate about film and wish to gain experience
for their future careers in this field.
I am not asking you to drive around or make coffee. Depending on what we will need on a given day you could be:
Script supervisor
Assisting our gaffer with lights
writing down scene files
Set dresser
Making sure we don't have non actors walking onto set, etc.
Here is some information about the film.
SYNOPSIS:
The Second Coming is a dark love story about a escort who is trying to
get out of the business who falls in love with a schizophrenic who
thinks he is the Second Coming of Christ. It is a modern day version of
the Jesus and Mary Magdelene story meets the film True Romance, which
follows the heroes journey but takes the viewer into the twisted minds
of the characters through surreal imagery and dreamscapes.
Please email me a little about yourself and any prior experience you may have.
This is a no budget production with only minimal funds to pay for food, rentals, props, and permits. Nobody
is getting paid and everyone involved is doing this because they, like
myself are artists and want more experience and footage for their reel.
What
I can offer is that you are well fed, respected, credited, a copy of
the film, multiple invitations to screenings, connections with those
working in the industry and some great experience.
Please feel free to view a trailer of my last film to see if this the kinda production you would like to participate in.

Short,
Independent Film slated to shoot in Portland, January 2013. Director is
asking for Ethnic looks, with experience, for speaking and non-speaking
parts. Male or Female (clothes ON). Requests for African-American /
Asian / or Ambiguous.
Please send Resume and Headshot. Film experience specifically requested.
Original Post Date: 2013-01-15 Hi
there. I'm an aspiring filmmaker and am casting for my first major
project (possibly feature length). It is a critical drama that's pretty
dialogue heavy, so I'm in need of actors with some solid experience. I
don't need to see a lengthy filmography, but a some past film work would
be nice. This is pretty low-budget, all out of pocket, so while I can't
guarantee that this will be a paid gig, if I have the funds, I'll
definitely pay. I actually have two big roles to fill, one more
supportive than the other but still with a lot of screen time (both
young adults18-25ish). If you are interested then email me a head shot
and I will send you an excerpt of the short story version. Please leave
either a number, email, or a facebook link because for some reason I've
been having trouble responding to the emails. I live in Newberg but have
no problem traveling to Portland to meet up with you if you'd like to
do a reading.
------------------------------------------------ 40 year old actor needed
Original Post Date: 2013-01-16 Sandy
Actors Theatre is looking for an actor to play Giles Ralston (40 year
old male -- co-proprietor of Monkswell Manor) in their production of
Agatha Christie's Mousetrap. Auditions will be held Saturday, January
26th at 10:00am at the theater, in Sandy
Auditions will be cold
readings from the scripts. However, headshots, resumes, and/or
monologues are welcome, but not required. (If you have a prepared
monologue, you will be given the opportunity to share it as an
additional basis for consideration.) All are welcome and no experience
is necessary.
Rehearsals will start mid-February. Production dates are April 5th-28 (Friday, Saturday and Sunday Matinee)
Plot: At
Monkswell Manor, the news on the radio reports that a murder has
recently taken place in London. Mollie and Giles Ralston, the owners of
the once-regal estate recently converted into a guesthouse, hardly
notice the news. They are far too busy preparing for the arrival of
their first guests and concerned that the heavy snowfalls may prevent
the guests reaching their destination. As the guests arrive safely and
the Manor becomes snowed in, a policeman arrives on skis suspecting that one of the seven occupants may be the killer.
Suspects
include the young married couple, a spinster with a curious background,
an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef, a retired army
major, and an unexpected visitor who claims his car has run into a
snowdrift. During his interrogation, Sergeant Trotter uncovers the many
mysterious secrets of everyone present, as he tries to solve the murder
in true Christie style.

should look good naturally without a lot of make up.

Please respond with at least one head shot and one full-body shot. I
can't believe I have to say this, but please don't send me nude photos.
This is a real gig for a real company. Everyone's clothes stay on! I'll
call a couple of finalists and then make my decision. I'll explain
location and all the other details then. Thank you!

Original Post Date: 2013-01-14 Extras needed for a scene in a short film slated to be shot on February 5th, 2013 from 5pm-10pm.
The
scene will involve a group of young women and men waiting outside of a
venue to get an autograph from a female pop singer. They will attempt to
crowd around her and be held back by her body guards as she gets into
her limo.
The scene will be shot outside of The Montage under the Morrison bridge.

this part I am looking for someone between the ages of 25 and 50 and I

Here is some information about the film.
SYNOPSIS:
The Second Coming is a dark love story about an escort who is trying to
get out of the business who falls in love with a schizophrenic who
thinks he is the Second Coming of Christ. It is a modern day version of
the Jesus and Mary Magdelene story meets the film True Romance, which
follows the heroes journey but takes the viewer into the twisted minds
of the characters through surreal imagery and dreamscapes.
Please email me a little about yourself, a photo, and any acting experience you may have.
This is a no budget production with only minimal funds to pay for food, rentals, props, and permits. Nobody
is getting paid and everyone involved is doing this because they, like
myself are artists and want more experience and footage for their reel.
What
I can offer is that you are well fed, respected, credited, have a
beautiful piece for your reel, multiple invitations to screenings, and
some great experience for your future career as an actor.
Please feel free to view a trailer of my last film to see if this the kinda production you would like to participate in.

PRODUCTION ASSISTANTS FOR SHORT FILM I
am currently looking for 2-3 Production assistants for a film I am
beginning production for on February 5th through mid March 2013 and will
need folks to be available 3-6 shoot days during this time period . I
don't necessarily need someone with a lot of experience but a few hard
working people who are passionate about film and wish to gain experience
for their future careers in this field.
I am not asking you to drive around or make coffee. Depending on what we will need on a given day you could be:
Script supervisor
Assisting our gaffer with lights
writing down scene files
Set dresser
Making sure we don't have non actors walking onto set, etc.
Here is some information about the film.
SYNOPSIS:
The Second Coming is a dark love story about a escort who is trying to
get out of the business who falls in love with a schizophrenic who
thinks he is the Second Coming of Christ. It is a modern day version of
the Jesus and Mary Magdelene story meets the film True Romance, which
follows the heroes journey but takes the viewer into the twisted minds
of the characters through surreal imagery and dreamscapes.
Please email me a little about yourself and any prior experience you may have.
This is a no budget production with only minimal funds to pay for food, rentals, props, and permits. Nobody
is getting paid and everyone involved is doing this because they, like
myself are artists and want more experience and footage for their reel.
What
I can offer is that you are well fed, respected, credited, a copy of
the film, multiple invitations to screenings, connections with those
working in the industry and some great experience.
Please feel free to view a trailer of my last film to see if this the kinda production you would like to participate in.
