Title: CASTING FOR INDIE PORTLAND FEATURE!

Type: Talent
Audition Details:
We are currently casting male actors, aged 18 to 25 for a new independent feature film.
The film is a minimalist picture, centered around the relationship of two brothers - Gerry and Leon. After having not seen much of each other since childhood, Gerry and Leon are back in the town they grew up in, and decide to take the first step toward reconnecting over a weekend camping trip. Just as they begin to navigate their way out of the initial awkwardness of their new bond, the introduction of a mysterious young female backpacker begins to expose the more complicated urges of adulthood inside them.
Much of the film's creation will be based around structured improvisation, with an atmosphere of heavy collaboration between everyone involved promoted. Input and ideas from actors about scenes and the direction of the story will not only be welcomed, but completely essential to the creation of the film.
All levels of experience are encouraged to apply; no acting experience is required. We are looking for both males and females in their early to mid twenties.
THIS IS A PASSION PROJECT. It is being shot on budget just large enough to cover the essential practicalities of it's creation, so it is non-paying, but of course all costs of transportation and meals are covered.
The film will be shot at a campground about 45 minutes outside of Portland. It will be shot on digital, over the course of a couple weekends in July and August. I am completely willing to work around your schedule, and plan the shoots ahead of time so that it is convenient for all involved.
Please email me at mjay@sva.edu with any head shot/resume you may have, and I will respond to you to coordinate an audition
Thank you!
