2 actors needed for short student film, seattle

Hello,

I am a senior majoring in Digital Arts and Experimental Media at the
University of Washington and I am currently taking a summer course focusing
on narrative film. In this class each student is required to produce a short
film and we are rapidly approaching the production stage. That said, I am
looking for two actors (one male and one female) who would like to
participate in my production. That said, I will unfortunately be unable to
give any monetary compensation.

Below is a quick premise of the film for those interested as well as some
insight to how it will be filmed:

"Boyfriend’s attempt to solidify a relationship backfires when his marriage
proposal goes awry and is revealed too soon to his girlfriend. In his
attempt to rectify the situation, it snowballs into an accident which leaves
the relationship beyond complete repair."

The style of the film will be slightly surreal because a good chunk of the
film is going to take place from the perspective of a blind person (the
female actor). This will not be revealed to the audience until maybe halfway
through, but it is going to greatly effect how sound and image work together
in the film for that first half. In the script (apart from the opening scene
and ending) there is one continuos scene as the woman leads the man around,
but their setting will change drastically around them depending on some key
sounds that crop up on their journey.

That said, even though the female lead will be blind she will not have to
act blind, it will be implied in the way the scenes are going to be filmed.

I am planning on filming next weekend (Aug. 6th and 7th) during the
afternoon (in and around Seattle), so if anyone is interested and available
please send me an email and I will send the script. Depending on the amount
of actors who show interest I will hold short auditions on campus at
University of Washington.

Thanks,

Gaelen Sayres

Casting Female Supporting Role for Short Film

I'm an 18 year old local filmmaker and am currently looking for a
female actress to play a supporting role for my upcoming short film.
Several of my previous films have been showcased in several national
and international film festivals including the largest youth film
festival in the world. The National Film Festival for Talented Youth
(NFFTY) as well as the Seattle True Independent Film Festival
(STIFF).

We need a female actress, age 18-25 to play the part of a character
who shows up very briefly in only a few scenes as what are essentially
"flashbacks" that the main character has as this character is now
deceased at the time that the story takes place. Only one of the
scenes has dialogue in it.

This new film The Unknown (Working title) is a story of a man
submerged in a dark world of tragedy. He struggles with the loss of
his loved one which now leaves him alone. He knows what awaits him on
the other side of death and he knows it is so much better than the
hell he is living in now. Its just a matter of when he will get there
and the struggles he will have to endure to reach the light the
awaits him in the midst of darkness.

We are still deep in pre-production, but are aiming for a four day
shoot sometime around the middle to late August. All shooting will
take place in various places around Snohomish county and out to
Everett.

Unfortunately this is not a paid project. Food and beverage will be
available to you at each of the shoots. VIP passes will be offered to
any local festivals the film gets accepted to. If interested, please
respond to this with your resume and a list of equipment you may own.
We will get back to you with more info and a copy of the script for
you to read over. We will then ask that you send in a video of
yourself reading from the one scene your part has dialogue in. In
person auditions will not be needed for this part.

Thank you for your time.
