Auditions: Monday, March 21, 2011

This page contains auditions posted on Monday, March 21, 2011.

Let's continue the discussion for this week - balancing life with an acting career. For those of you who are making a career out of acting, it can be challenging to find time for a social life, family, and friends who are not a part of the acting world. For those of us who pursue acting as a hobby, it can be a challenge to balance a day job with auditions, rehearsing, and filming. Anyone involved with theater knows that rehearsals may be scheduled every weekday, which minimizes time spent with family and friends outside of acting. Those late night shoots happen when convenient for the filmmakers, and can interfere with local networking events.

Whether you are involved with theater or film, how do you balance your social life and sanity with acting work? Some meditate, others give themselves a day each week devoted to family. Let's hear what your tricks are. Please share your thoughts and feedback in the chat box below!

This blog will be updated daily to provide actors work in and around the Seattle area. Also, check out yesterday's post because there were a lot of good opportunities posted.

If you are a fan of the blog, please share this with actor friends. If you have any feedback for me on how to improve my blog, share this with me so that I may work on improving the blog.

Thanks.

Project description:

“BLACKHAT” is a feature film that will be produced by the newly established Collaborative Film Production. BLACKHAT is a dramatic/thriller feature film that follows the first quarter or semester of a college freshman who falls into the world of technological addiction and eventual computer hacking. As he delves into the computer driven world he finds himself conflicted between two realities: technological and social. This conflict is brought about by the love interest of a girl who is driven by natural beauty. She shows him the beauty of social interaction and living free. The world is visceral, light, and colorful when he is with her. Her presence polarizes the world that the protagonist is brought into by a college-mate. The conflict presents itself in the schism created by the two realities; the resolution is in the choice."

The movie explores themes such as human ambition, consequence, and action in contrast to morality.

We are still looking to fill the role of the lead character, David, and the role of the mother. All the other roles have been cast.

Character Breakdown:

David– Around 18-22 years-old, any ethnicity. A Somewhat plain, genuine person, excited about becoming a man and growing and developing a personality of his own. Falls in love with Saren, and gets involved in underground hacking under the mentorship of Jason, his dorm-mate.

Mother – In her 40s-50s, any ethnicity. She’s David’s mother, and very attached to her son.

Lead male and female needed for a zombie music video!

We are looking for a female lead to play a human in zombie infested music video!

We are also looking for a lead male to play the "lead" zombie. The lead zombie will get the most camera time, and will need to be able to "turn". He will be fading away until he dies, and then he becomes one of the infected!

If you are interested, please reply with a head-shot and portfolio. Please indicate in your email heading what role you are interested in.
If you're applying for the role gruesome, disgusting, dis-formed zombies, please send a picture of you in zombie garb/makeup. We currently do not have a make-up artist, so your own zombie make-up will have to be supplied. We will update you if this changes.

We will be filming Sunday, March 27th in Factoria.

This is a non-paid gig. We will reply to you if we are interested. This will be an excellent acting opportunity for anyone interested in building a portfolio for film, future casting calls, acting, make-up: anything! Looking forward to hearing from everyone.
