Female Actors needed for video

TWO FEMALE ACTORS SOUGHT.

 

The Video Repertory Company is putting together a short digital video.  I need two female actors:  

This is a non-union shoot.

 

HELEN --- 40+ years old, the deceased wife of James, who is not quite as dead as she seemed.  She has a very strong presence.

 

TRINKA --- 21-29, present girlfriend of James.  Model pretty, it would be great if she speaks naturally with a foreign accent (Russian, Israeli, Brazilian?).  She is not as dumb as she lets people think she is.

 

 

The role of James is cast.

 

 

This will be a one day shoot, date is TBD by availability of the actors we cast.  We will provide meals and copies of the project.

 

Auditions will be October 22 7-10 PM, and will be BY APPOINTMENT ONLY!  Auditions will take about ten minutes and will be cold readings from the script.

 

Send an email to 

 

danmcgee26@hotmail.com

 

 

Use AUDITIONS in the subject line.  Send a copy of your resume and we will send a copy of the script and an appointment time.

Entertainers and Performers wanted

Hello Everyone.This is Elizabeth from Entertaining Parties .com
We had auditions a few weeks back and they went well. However, alot
of you couldn't make it (I wonder how many of you were scared to come
over into Illinois?:-). If you are in the dark on this see the bottom
of this posting for original ad.
So we are scheduling a meeting at the Sunset Hills Borders (Watson
Rd. just a few blocks off of hwy 40 and 44)for this Saturday evening
at 7:00 (Oct. 13). Please let us know if you can attend. Borders cafe
needs a head count for seating.
This is NOT an audition. Rather it's an introduction of what is
needed, what you can expect of this company, what we expect of
performers, future plans for our site, etc. We will cover everything
you would need to know and answer any questions you may have.
This is very informal and shouldn't take over an hour. If you want,
you can bring anything you may need to tell us what you do, but there
will also be paperwork for you to fill out which includes an area for
that.
It is difficult to keep track of all of your inquiries so please keep
in touch if you don't hear from us.
Here is the address and phone of the Borders. Hope to hear from you
and see you there.

ORIGINAL POST(again, Borders is strictly an informative meeting, not
an audition);

Local expanding entertainment company is seeking performers to send
out on paying gigs.

We need entertainers. Experience not as necessary as creativity and
comfort in front of a crowd. Singers don't have to be wonderful but
should be able to carry a tune well.

If you already have an act you will NOT have to become exclusive to us.

Even if you do not currently have an act but are interested in
possible future performances, please plan to attend. We will be going
over information to familiarize you with us and our intentions with
growing this company. As we grow you will be hearing about us around
town. As finances accumulate we intend to put an aggressive
advertisement plan into place. Our hope is to become St. Louis' MOST
REPUTABLE, family appropriate, entertainment company. Please come out
to hear more. We would love to get to know you.

We will provide a CD player as well as a DVD player if you have a
video of an act you do. Room size is restricted. If you are
performing an act
your act does NOT have to be perfected for us. We just need to get an
idea if it will
be sellable and if you are a proper candidate.
Dress casual. Relax. Have a fun evening with us. Refreshments will be
provided.
No need for headshots & resumes, unless you just want to bring them.

Please visit www.entertainingparties.com or call (314)313-7746 for
more information.
These are paid performances contracted on an 'as needed' basis.

A young female in her early twenties, an older female in her mid 40's early 50's and an older male in his late 40's early 50's.  There is no pay for this film but the opportunity to gain experience, but food is provided and a ride if needed.  No acting experience is required just the eagerness to learn and have fun. My short film pertains to the Vietnam war were a young girl receives love letter from a soldier.  The older man is her father and is against her dating anyone.  The father owns a small diner located in a little town where one waitress is needed. That one waitress is his daughter the young female who is eager to find happiness. The older woman is a local lady who is coping with her son being off to war.  These lives learn and grow during the Vietnam war at home in a local diner.

Auditions are being held on November 1st from 3-7pm. For the location please email me or call me at  kjparadise2@hotmail.com or 1-314-246-2965
