We are seeking three actors to star in our final year Communications Studies Project. The film is a mockumentary about a young totem tennis player who is striving to get accepted into WAIS. The style of the film will be similar to "We Can Be Heroes" and "Summer Heights High." The 5 minute film will consist of a series of interviews with the three characters accompanied by action shots of Dennis playing totem tennis (no experience in totem tennis required!!!) You will receive a copy of the completed film to add to your portfolio, and write you a reference if required. Characters: Dennis Olman- male, 18-28 years (screen age); he is a passionate totem tennis player, a funny character. The actor needs to portray the character naturalistically. Grant Olman (male) and Joan Olman (female): 40+years; parents of Dennis, are disappointed in their son's preoccupation with totem tennis. Auditions will be held on the 12th and 15th of September, please contact us to arrange a time. Auditions will consist performing a short section of the script (we will send you the script when you contact us) and a short interview where we will ask you questions and get you to answer them in character. More information about the character and audition will be provided when we send you the script. :)
