Attractive female, 18-28 Paid gig, Sat 26th 5-5 Everett

Howdy.

We need a slender and attractive female, ages 18-28 to demonstrate a new acting
technique in a series of short skits. Acting is required, but not acting
experience, I'm looking for range, not skill. Dance or any body movement skills
are a plus.

At Lou Ryan Productions we are filming a 20 part instructional video for a new
acting technique, in partnership with Random Originals. This will be a one day
shoot, from 5AM to 5PM on Saturday the 26th.

This will pay $100 at the end of the day. Also, we pride ourselves in providing
exceptional craft services.

This will also be a high quality studio production. It will air as a series on
a youtube channel. This will be a great resume piece.

Please reply with headshot and resume. Body shots, (fully clothed please) may
help. If you don't have a resume, tell me how great you are at acting or
dancing.

Audition date and time: 6:00 Tuesday the 22nd, in Everett. I will forward the
studio/audition address if you are selected.

Shoot date and time: Saturday the 26th from 5 AM to 5 PM

I will schedule you individually if I decide to audition you, so there will be
no annoying waits. I'm an actor myself, and I know how that goes, especially
this being finals season.

If you are really interested, but that audition time does not work, let me know,
we can work something out.

Thanks, Lucas, Lou Ryan Productions.

Japanese Woman 55-70 years old

Hi,

I am a Seattle commercial photographer, casting for a healthcare shoot,
scheduled for next Thursday, March 24th. My client is Philips
Healthcare...

http://www.healthcare.philips.com/us_en/

...a manufacturer of medical devices for the healthcare field. This shoot
will feature a defibrillator device, and will be shot primarily outdoors.
We will be shooting only still images, and the action will be primarily of
EMT¹s and emergency responders caring for a ³victim² and using the device on
him. Naturally, the emergency people will only appear to be using the
machine, they will not actually administer a shock.

I need to find a Japanese lady somewhere between 55 and 70 years old who can
play the part of the victim¹s wife. Ideally, this lady would have a husband
who could play the part of the victim. The client¹s emphasis for all our
shooting is that the models be as natural and un-actorish as possible, so
having an acting background would be nice, but not necessary. Her husband,
if she has one, would not be required to do anything but lie on a gurney or
stretcher ­ his looks and acting ability are not an issue.

It is likely that the job will be shot in the Shoreline area. If you need
to travel to get there, I can pay a dollar a mile. The pay rate for this
job is $125 an hour for each individual, so both the Japanese lady will and
her husband will each receive $125 an hour. There will be a 2 hour minimum,
so that the least you¹d each earn is $250.

The photos will be used on Philips website and also in promotional
brochures.

Because our timeline is very short, I need to responses as soon as possible.

Asian firefighter/EMT/paramedic/ 25-50 years old

I am a Seattle commercial photographer, casting for a healthcare shoot,
scheduled for next Thursday, March 24th. My client is Philips
Healthcare...

...a manufacturer of medical devices for the healthcare field. This shoot
will feature a defibrillator device, and will be shot primarily outdoors.
We will be shooting only still images, and the action will be primarily of
EMT¹s and emergency responders caring for a ³victim² and using the device on
him. Naturally, the emergency people will only appear to be using the
machine, they will not actually administer a shock.

I need to find a young-ish Asian male, preferably, but not necessarily
Japanese, who is an actual healthcare professional (could also be a nurse or
doctor), to appear in the photos using the device. The client (Philips) is
firm in its belief that an actor cannot fake the use of the machine, must
actually have used and be familiar with this type of device, though
experience with any defibrillator brand is ok. This person will just go
about the business of appearing to use the device, exactly as he would in
his job. Acting experience would be nice, but not at all necessary. This
medical pro fellow should be fit, preferably under 38, but he could be as
old as 50, and reasonably attractive. He does not need to be thought of as
handsome, except by his mother.

It is likely that the job will be shot in the Shoreline area. If you need
to travel to get there, I can pay a dollar a mile. The pay rate for this
job is $125 an hour and there will be a 2 hour minimum, so the least you¹d
earn is $250.

Voice Talent Needed

I'm looking for male voice talent to a fake 70's film trailer for the
upcoming "Hobo With a Shotgun" trailer contest. The contest was just
announced at the SXSW premiere of the film this week, but the deadline
for submission is March 31, 2011 so time is running short! The style
is "Grindhouse" but there is no nudity, offensive subject matter, or
foul language as per the contest rules. Salesmanship and huckster
attitude is welcome :)

Talent must be willing to sign all needed releases for contest
submission:
http://ca.hobowithashotgun.com/contest/

I'm currently editing & volunteering out of NWFF, so most production
work would take place in Capital Hill, but I am flexible with
schedule, equipment and location. I have a 2-min rough cut ready with
temp music and as of today no submission have been posted for the
contest, so chances are good of getting exposure for Seattle talent.
