Upcoming auditions for locally based independent feature film...
Wed, 6 June 2007, 10:26 amI have only just registered with this site and my sole purpose for doing so is to get the
ball rolling for casting/auditions for a low-budget independent feature film that I have
written and am looking to direct at some stage in the future.
The film is a dialogue driven ensemble comedy with eight major parts and a few cameos.
The reason I am doing it on this site is that it is probably better suited to theatre actors,
also, my experience is more in theatre than film. Finally, I am still toying with the idea as
putting it together as a play if I cannot get the technical assistance I need to make it as
a film.
At this stage, I am just looking at whether it is worthwhile starting an auditioning process.
Any ideas?
Costs
Wed, 6 June 2007, 02:57 pmI think that I can limit costs to catering, possibly some transport, venues should be free (for me) and I can organise clothing and props - will cost next to nothing.
I won't be able to pay actors, with the exception of the fact that I would be try to be generous with my catering etc.
My main costs would be equipment hire (where needed) and possibly paying person/persons to film, do sound, etc (again, where needed).
I think I have got editing covered - or have access to someone who can arrange for that.
It's a big undertaking though, I realise. I am a very competent organiser of these kinds of things, with the exception of technical aspects, which is probably the hardest part anyway.
