Five key actors are needed for a short film being shot in early October. The film is being produced by final year creative media students at RMIT, all of whom are also scriptwriters. This means good, juicy characters!! We are having auditions THIS FRIDAY 21st September from about 1pm to 3.30pm at RMIT, cardigan st, Carlton. The following characters are available - MELODY (20s/early 30s, female) - the gorgeous type, stunning, sexy, all the rest of that. You get the feeling her looks are all that she's got. TED (about same age as Melody, male) - the male stripper (!) He needs to be confident but he doesn't need to be 'ripped' Prefer a Stephen Curry-esque type, someone with warmth and a bit of dancing ability. He may need to show his bum in a scene but there is no full frontal nudity and all of this can be discussed between actor and director. BRIDGET - Melody's younger sister. Generous and humble. Probably a little unaware of how attractive she is. GARY (40s/50s, male) - former stripper, and should look like he used to be very fit (or still is!). A little dopey but fun. He would need to be topless in one scene. GERTIE (60s plus, female) - this is more of a cameo role, just needs to be someone who looks like an elderly grandmother. Spirited and open minded but a little shy. We will also need some female extras for a party scene. Any age, doesn't matter! This will be only one day of shooting and details will be provided soon. Well, hopefully it's clear that this is a comedy! All actors will need to be available for a night/ evening shoot and for a weekend of shooting. I can't be more specific yet about shooting dates, but it's likely to be Friday afternoons and a weekend, probably 5th, 6th, 7th October or 12th, 13th, 14th Oct. Catering will be provided but this is an UNPAID job. We'll also provide a copy of the film when it's completed. For enquiries or to organise an audition time please contact Sam on samelizhill@hotmail.com.
