CASTING CALL - LIFEBOOK - APRIL 13th and 14th

Who: We are Jeremy Lamb, Courtney Hopkin, Jon Bolden, Alex Dobrenko, Nate Seiberling, Brian Parsons and Keaton Carlson (name of sketch group TBD - don't worry, a serious voting process is in effect right now).

What: We are a new sketch group here in Austin and are currently casting for a sweet new sketch called LIFEBOOK that we'll be filming in mid April. We're of the belief that sketches are essentially short films, so we've brought on a team of super talented camera, sound, and film production folks to make this baby look, sound, and feel pretty damn excellent. Also, James Franco may or may not be in the sketch. And by that we mean he may or may not show up on the nights we shoot to hang out and say "Spring Breaaak." Maybe.

The entire sketch (5-6 min) will take place at a party (think cocktails, not college rager), and we are looking to cast many principal speaking roles as well as a sizable amount of extras in the background who we'll ask to improvise and potentially evolve into speaking roles as the shoot goes on. In total we've got about 25 parts to cast and will be looking for another 30+ to be in the background throughout the two days of shooting.

Due to the improvised nature of the shoot, we'd like to cast as many awesome improvisers as possible. Check out the details below and please send us your information if you're interested in learning more about the project.

Dates - April 13th and 14th, afternoon and night shoots starting around 3pm CST and going until 12am - don't worry if you cannot be available for the entirety of the time. Beyond the shoot, we will be having a dry run on April 7th in the evening. Please indicate if you will be available for this in your email.

Location - TBD (Austin, TX)

Paid/Unpaid - Unpaid. We will feed ya, give you fun drinks to drink, and provide an HD copy of the final product/all your footage for your reel

If you're interested, please e-mail lifebookcasting@gmail.com with your headshot or photo and a resume/paragraph explaining your past experience with film/improv. And don't worry, we're looking to cast folks from all levels of experience so, if this sounds sweet, shoot us an e-mail!
