Creative Tip of the Week
Kids- Make you OWN film festival with your friends. Ask your parents to borrow their cameras ( either a digital camera with video, or a real camcorder if you have one) and make a Film Festival. Decide surprise catagories or funny props you have to use on your movie, and you only have one after noon to make it! Then, get together to watch everyones masterpiece!
Adults- AUDITION Native Americans/ Canadian actors
Writer/Director, Brooke Pepion Swaney, is casting her film, "Spark the Punk", and she needs to find some New Mexico NativeAmerican/Canadian actors, union or non, either will work.
Here is what they are looking for:
LOUISA [mid 20s] - Native American. Harboring a dislike for most people, a great wit, and a drinking problem, Louisa protects her vitally sensitive inner core through external hardness. Grew up off the rez. Striking. Wiry. Long hair.
LOUIS SR [50s] - Native American. Louisa's father. He regrets watching his daughter go down the same path. Great sense of humor and uses it to his advantage. Works as a counselor and sometimes forgets not to be on the job with his family. Rotund.
MAN [60s] - Native American. Trickster. Wild. Smart but sometimes does not see the outcome of his actions. Also Striking and wiry.
Production will pay for transport and accommodation for the actors from Seattle.
SHOOT DATES: September 15 - 20 2010 in Montana.
We will be meeting crew in Seattle and will pick up actors from the airport and driving to Montana. Crew, gear and actors will be needed SEPTEMBER 13, returning the gear back on SEPTEMBER 21 (and actors can head back to New Mexico)
For the actors, it would be a low low pay sort of deal. Director is doing some fund raising so there is pay of $100/day at this stage. That may change if more funds are raised. Travel and accommodation will be provided to those that are coming from afar.
POSSIBLE AUDITION DATES:
1) First stage is to send in picture/headshots and CV if you have one. Then a demo tape can be sent to Director, based on sides. I can give more info if you contact me...
2) Short List- Those that make it past short listing could have a potential audition on either August 7th/8th potentially (waiting to see what kind of response to know if we need both days)
If you have some actors or know any that might be available and interested in this project could you pass this info along to them, it would be greatly appreciated. Any suggestions as to where to post an ad or who to call would also be appreciated as well!
thanks so much for your help!
