2 Actresses Needed
Thu, 4 Nov 2004, 12:29 pmHi All
Well, there seems to be plenty of them on here so lets see how we go.
I am currently casting a feature film that will be shot in Australia. Here's hoping it gets released nationally, but it may end up being an independent release.
We have almost cast the entire show but need two female actresses aged 14-18 to film some small parts.
The film will be shot in Perth and all costs etc will be paid for.
We're looking for people with some determination.
We'll be holding private auditions in a few weeks. If you're interested in attending one of the private auditions, in Perth, please email me.

OF course, I don't think he was out to hurt people, fool anyone, or give anyone false hope. The fact that he DID should be excused because he has been so nice and apologetic about it.

Funny, the situation on this website looks like a bunch of actors writing a story about a journalist who would do anything to make it into HIS industry, proving that his business too is 'dog eat dog' and that some journalists will do anything for THEIR big break. You read all the time in the news, of actors meeting journalists and being misrepresented or misquoted or worse....

Do you know for sure that ANY job interview ANYWHERE is real or fake? How do you find out? Are there any background checks done of anybody who posts a help wanted ad in the newspaper? What is different here from any other situation? I'm afraid I still don't think the point being made is terribly ground breaking. People should be careful everywhere. But the percentage of incident is still proportionately small.

Hmmm...journo-speak? He's not trying to protect young people from predators, he's trying to prove that they are at risk. That is an entirely different agenda, to get his story written. How is any actual 'protection' going to occur? He has not yet actually established that anyone is at risk, only that people respond to fake ads the same way that they do to real ones. How do you propose to distinguish fake ads from real ones?
Similarly, how do I know I won't be attacked or robbed by someone who answers my audition ad? Obviously I agree that we don't want to see anyone raped or harmed in any way....but my point is, what is it about the internet that is LESS safe than any other method of doing business? In fact, I reckon you could argue that in some ways it's safer, because far fewer transactions have to be face-to-face these days. How do you justify your premise?
He has alerted people to a problem by actually creating a problem. And expects thanks for that? Like I said previously, that's like telling someone that fire can hurt them by setting them alight.

I have never assumed he was out trying to hurt people, I have no doubt he thought he was helping. But I think he is rather foolish now to deny that he HAS hurt people, and to not admit that his approach was not well thought through. To the outside observer, his attitude appears arrogant.
Of course, I forgave him for this as soon as I found out he was a journalist, because I knew he can't help himself...
