Actors needed

Captain KickAss Productions is looking for actors/actresses to
participate in the wild weekend of filmmaking frivolity that is the 48
Hour Film Project June 8-10, 2007.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with this event, teams from
throughout the St. Louis region will be competing against each other
to write, shoot, and edit a short film over the course of a single
weekend. Teams are assigned certain elements mere minutes before the
festival starts, meaning that essentially all creativity must be done
in just 48 hours.

It's a crazy caffeine packed good time!

At any rate, we are looking for easy going and talented actors and
actresses to be part of our team. All looks, types, ages, and
experience levels are encouraged to submit a resume and head shot to
casting@ckaproduction.com.

Because there is no script, there are no roles that we are
necessarily looking to fill. Rather, we are looking for
personalities that we feel we could work well with, and who are
willing to be flexible with the kind/size of role they might
receive. Similarly, because there are no roles written as such, we
will not be doing a traditional casting. Instead we will be having an
informal get together in about two weeks. We intend to use this time
as a chance to get to know our potential cast, and get a better feel
for who you are, and who you could be/want to be on film.

We only have two requirements:
- You must have transportation to the Metro East
- You must be available ALL DAY on Saturday June 9

Please note that due to the nature of this competition, casting
decisions will not be made until the night that the festival begins,
mere hours before we actually start shooting. Chosen cast members
will be notified as soon as possible, and all cast members will be
emailed a copy of the script in the wee hours of the morning before
production begins.

Additionally note that due to restrictions put in place by the 48HFP,
all cast and crew members must be volunteers. As such, we can not
pay you. However we will provide lunch, and snacks throughout the
day. For additional information, please feel free to contact Seth
Treptow at (618) 541-2242 or via email at
streptow@ckaproduction.com. Also feel free to check out our website
- www.ckaproduction.com - for a better glimpse of who we are and what
we have done.
