Auditions: Wednesday, March 23, 2011

This page contains auditions posted on Wednesday, March 23, 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.

"Acting Couples" needed for Music Video

Endless Grey is shooting their second music video and is in need of 2 male/female acting couples (it is not a requirement to actually be a couple, just simply to be paired and be able to act as one). Singles may also apply if they are very extroverted and are able to get to know someone quickly and be comfortable acting as a couple with them.

Here is an example of their first video: Endless Grey - "Once Again"
The quality will be much better in this one however, because the videographer was also in the band in the last video so he could not man the camera to get the most accurate shots. This one will also be shot in black and white (and like the last one, 1080p).

The roles are as follows:
Couple #1: Married couple has fun times, but wife ends up dying in car crash, husband is constantly mourning.
Couple #2: Casual date couple that goes out, has drinks, "makes love", guy leaves her, and the girl feels used (we prefer to do a scene with tops off showing outlines of nude bodies, so please be comfortable with that. Only black outlines will be shown in final video however. HOWEVER, please do apply even if you are not comfortable being filmed with your top off).

Clearly, these are very sad roles, so please be able to connect with that sort of emotion.

Please reply to this ad with a brief acting resume, any youtube/vimeo acting links, and headshots/bodyshots (and shirt-off nude shots if possible). Thank you for your interest.
