Casting Call for a Fully Designed Short Film

We are looking to cast the following roles. Casting will be held on:

Saturday February 19th (from 10:00a.m. until 4:00p.m.)
Tuesday February 22nd (from 3:00p.m. until 8:00p.m.)

This production will be shot in HD with a full crew and will be
professionally designed. This will be a great opportunity for anyone
looking to build their acting portfolio.

We are located at 1500 Harvard Ave, on the corner of Harvard and Pike
in the Capitol Hill neighborhood. Please come prepared with a headshot
and a resume and the role(s) you would like to audition for. We will
have a cold read for the audition.

Chef: Male, between 40 and 70 years of age. He is the unaffected chef
working at the ultimate greasy spoon diner. He runs the entire burger
joint on his own and is always focused on the task at hand. He moves
slowly but purposefully. He is extremely kind and has a very dry sense
of humor but rarely shows either.

Man: Male, in his 30’s to 40’s. He eats at the Chef’s joint
regularly. Very introspective and a huge fan of reading. He is a hard
worker when he is on the clock, but outside of work he is visibly
fatigued. Rarely talks but when he does it’s worth a listen.

Roy: Male, 20’s to early 30’s. A shifty-eyed small time crook. He has
never had anything going for him and is trying his best to provide for
his girlfriend, Julie. He is skittish and easily agitated.

Julie: Female, 20’s to early 30’s. She is Roy’s girlfriend who has
grown weary of his line of work. She yearns for a better life. She
loves Roy but is slowly coming to the realization that his schemes
will never amount to anything.
