UPDATED Short(ish) notice casting for a horrorcomedy project
Posted: November 1st, 2010, 9:46 pm
Here's the deal, yo. I've made some revisions to the basic script, and added details about characters.
Hello, my name is Rory Harman.
I am going to be shooting a short film about ghost hunters, on Friday
There is a script, with a basic arc, but essentially, other than a few key plot points, particularly the climax, which is more effects heavy than dialogue centered, the actors can take the reins over most of the material.
It's supposed to resemble a documentary.
I am looking for actors, male and female in their 20s to 40s, with strong comedic senses.
Characters
Clive, lead ghost hunter. Brash, potentially violent. Short tempered and short witted, but with a strong sense of self importance. Also occasionally preoccupied with sex.
Christian, a psychic/clairvoyant. Mild tempered, and perhaps a little too sensitive. Stumbles over words. Only confidence is in belief in own psychic ability. A mouth breather. Kind of twee.
Cooper, a Cryptozoologist. Spaced out, slow witted, unintentionally destructive. Unintentionally, and unwittingly vulgar at times. Largely unfazed by the alleged haunting, since it does not involve yettis, or any other mythical creatures.
Laura Bradley, concerned homeowner. Occasionally overly explicit about the violent past of the building, and oddly nonchalant.
We will be working with multiple cameras, shooting simultaneously. We will shoot a number of short sequences pertaining to the investigation, followed by individual "confessionals", and then a rather bloody climax.
Further details past that can be obtained, if you are interested, by contacting me at RoryHarman AT gmail DOT com.
Please include a photo of some kind, or a link to one.
Thank you very much,
Rory Harman.
