I am a second year film student surrounded by other film students putting their productions together, also searching for actors to fulfil a number of different roles. It has come that time of year [scond semester] when all the productions are actualised and theres a mad scrambling to find the perfect person to fulfil the varied roles. So if you wish to join the mahem [predominantly unpaid - sorry] of student film production [approx. 100 films in total, many great scripts] which undoubtedly would be a great platform to move within the industry then PLEASE dont hesitate in sending your folio and a picture [or photocopy of a picture] to

LOTOS PRODUCTIONS
PO Box 1380
Carlton 3053
Melbourne, Victoria

No Video showreels please only DVD

_________________________________________________________
Now to the matter at hand. My film requires 5 actors of various abilities.

Female Lead; mid 20's has to play the role of a bulimic [therefore on the thin side] Wildly passionate strong female role who understands the complexity of love and simple pleasures. She is therefore by her nature extremely vulnerable.

Male Lead; Mid 20's a herion addict though beyond any sterotype. Stutters badly and substitutes this with sign language. Very centred character who reveals his addiction as a symptom of societys sickness. [prior knowledge of signing not nec.]

Beta Male; Businessman archetype generically muscular, goal oriented, extremely competitive

Parents 40's-50's; Caricatures. Fumbling, flighty and naieve.

If you DO want to audition for the above roles please send me an EMAIL ONLY of your name and interest and will send off script, however SEND FOLIO PICTURE ETC TO ABOVE PO BOX ADDRESS. Shot on Digital, Unpaid [receive stills and Video though], festival circut a definate.

Thank you for your time. Neil

Hello Neil.
I am an ex-theatre student recently returned from overseas, and aching to get back into the mad whirl of student film! I am compiling photo, resume stuff at the moment, but will send them off as soon as I can. In the meantime, would love to read your script.
regards,
Mardi

Re: FILM AUDITIONS Melbourne

Oh please.

Firstly, do people not look at the dates on these posts? Luke, that was posted over a year ago now, in case you didn't notice.

Secondly, is there any way we can put up a nice, colourful, flashing notice telling people NOT TO GIVE OUT THEIR PERSONAL DETAILS? Sure, it's nice to think that people still are able to trust others, but it's always the cute, little, innocent bunnies that are snapped up in a moment. Don't be the bunny ;-)

Re: FILM AUDITIONS Melbourne

Hey there,
My boy and I are really interested in putting more behind the face of the heroin addict. We want people to really have some way of comprehending the lifestyle, without the addiction.
We would like to be part of any forum that shows people that They are onnly abserving the behaviours of desparate heartbroken addicts, when they make their judgement calls & right us off in the streets.
I am not happy to be an addict and if it was as easy as just stoping We'd have done.
I want people to know that I never wanted to be this way. And more impotantly, many of us so caled Junkies, are good caring & generous human beings, trying to cope in our small worlds of @!#$.

So please be in touch if Dan or i could be of any use to you.
Dan is 24 & I am 28, and both have had a variety of experience in the world of drama & music.
feel free to give us a destraction from our ugly pasts, and sade todays.
Thanks Sarah J Anstis
