Upcoming auditions for locally based independent feature film...

I 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?

good idea

I think a profit-share idea would be fine - don't think it'd be worth much to anyone seeing how unlikely a profit would be, but fine by me. And I don't know that it'd be as simple as just hiring technical people - I would actually want to find a co-director before even starting. I am keen to take on a role in terms of giving direction to the actors, but I really need to find someone who, firstly, gets what I'm trying to do and secondly, is interested in trying to put together a visually satisfying film. Can't really just pay someone on the day for that.
