Ok, continuing the round-up… if there’s people who you think would be good to act in this movie in a speaking part capacity, now’s the time to ask them if they’re interested in possibly getting involved. I’m especially interested in:
- people who aren’t in their 20s and 30s
- people who aren’t white
- people who are excited about the idea of lo-fi sci-fi or indie moviemaking
…but that’s not required. Neither is acting experience, and in fact we can’t use actors who are a member of the union (ACTRA) since no one is getting paid. We’re shooting in the summer.
Some roles that we’re looking to fill in the crew:
- special effects and propmaster
- music supervisor
- design/promotions
- documenter (of the filmmaking process)
- wardrobe (clothes in 2040)
- cinematographers
If you have any ideas leave a comment or shoot me an email by a week today!
Chris sez:
-As I mentioned Jordan (my baby) is available. My niece Raine is also available (she’s 3 and very cute).
-Adam (from Infest Wisely) expressed interest to be in the movie
-I bet that Andrea would be down for more too
-And it’s possible Chris Clattenburg (who played my owner in Dog Given Rights) might be up for doing it
Jon sez:
I would like to 1) act and 2) do the doc, depending on specifics re timing and commitment. Either or both seem within my capacity to handle.
Tate sez:
She’s white and 29. She’s a BFA actor grad who’s still non-ACTRA. She’s done tonnes of theatre and also does a lot of pro Voice Over for real radio commercials and corporate stuff. Let me know if you want headshots/voice reels or anything. Her name’s Kelly.
Sanford is into it. And I know IW actors Sean, Pascal, Lucas, Guy, and Troy are all into another go ’round. Sean’s kid Jackie (7ish) and Shannon’s kid Willy (8ish) are also into it, as is his Iraqi friend Vivian.
Jim – if you could make up a brief actors call-out blurb with a contact email address i will forward it around and post it to that ryerson actors resource site.
Also, I’m willing to be a background or silent role actor, provided the timing doesn’t conflict with school.
Definitely interested in another go around.
i may know someone who would be great for wardrobe. my friend gwen is the managing editor with worn fashion journal and she’s worked on some videos and stuff before, plus she’s expressed interest in helping out.
hey jim just going over this again, i’ve helped pull music in from artists before for student films and would def be interested in helping bring some music in for this.
