Hello everyone, The Independent Pictures is now solicitating your
support in advertising at their 11th Annual Ohio Independent Film
Festival's Film Guide. I've been a supporter for Independent Pictures
and would like to see more support helping to bring this unique festival
a bigger exposure. OIFF has been extremely supportive to the independent
artists and filmmakers in general. 

This year, I'm again organizing the Annual Director of Photography
Workshop, on Sunday, Nov 7th, at WVIZ/PBS - ideaStream located at
Brookpark. As usual, it will be a full day event with 3 locally skilled
DPs (Robert Banks and others) giving each about 2 hours of instruction
on how to light, shoot, set, and film with 16mm cameras with limited
lighting resources. Unlike other years, we will include lunch meal for
all participants. More information will be available later. 

Below is the information and whom to contact in advertising for the 11th
Ohio Independent Film Festival's Film Guide. 

Thank you,
Johnny Wu

Hello, my name is Edward Ostrander, Advertising Manager for Independent
Pictures (IP), a non-profit organization dedicated to freedom of
expression through independent media.  I'd like to announce that IP is
hosting its 11th annual Ohio Independent Film Festival this upcoming
fall season.  The festival will span the dates of November 7-14th, with
an expected attendance of over 2,000 people.  

Established in 1994, the Ohio Independent Film Festival is an annual
event and the leading showcase in Ohio for international independent
shorts and feature-length films. Beyond serving as a convention to
showcase and promote independent films, the festival provides workshops
and film training programs designed to teach students how to work
professionally in the film industry. This emphasis on professional work
is what sets our Training Program apart from other educational film
offerings in Ohio.  

Independent Pictures and the Ohio Independent Film Festival are
extending this exceptional advertising opportunity to promote your
business in this year's Film Festival Guide.  With over 2,500 Film
Guides set to be distributed during the 7-day festival, your
advertisement will reach a large, unique demographic, comprised
primarily of Cleveland consumers.  This is great chance for your company
to gain local exposure, as well as support IP in its effort to promote
social justice and equality through a diverse community of media
artists.

If you are interested in supporting this year's Ohio Independent Film
Festival and would like to purchase ad space in the Film Guide, please
contact Independent Pictures, or me directly at Edward at mdifilm.com or

Edward Ostrander

Subject: [NEohioPAL]Cleveland Play House auditions for Crowns
Message-ID: <01C45F65.E1180580.sgordon at clevelandplayhouse.com>

The Cleveland Play House is looking for six women and one man, all 
African-American, for its upcoming production of Crowns, by Regina Taylor. 
The production will be directed and choreographed by Dianne McIntyre, and 
the musical director will be Ed Ridley. It will begin rehearsals on or 
about September 10, and it will perform October 5-November 7 at the 
Cleveland Play House. Rehearsals will be full time on an AEA LORT (C) 
contract. AEA and non-AEA actors are welcome to audition, though all actors 
will be required to sign an AEA contract if cast.

All roles are currently open. They include (ages are for characters, not 
necessarily for the actors):

Yolanda- about 16, Brooklyn teen, rebellious, insolent, a veneer of gangsta 
rap under which is a vulnerability that will make us care about her. 
Excellent singer, vocal range can vary, also must dance well but needn't be 
a professional dancer.

Mother Shaw- about 55 or more, grandmother to Yolanda. Matriarch of the 
community, wise, pure, earthy, great charisma. Excellent singing- prefer 
soprano but not necessary. Must move well but needn't be a professional 
dancer.

Man- 30-65 in the show, actor could be 40-55. Very versatile as he will 
play several roles, strong charisma and showmanship. Excellent singer, must 
also move well but needn't be a professional dancer.

Wanda- 35-40, class and sophistication, earthy but carries herself with a 
regal air. Must sing and move well but needn't be a professional singer or 
dancer.

Jeannette- 25-35, an air of glamour and seductiveness, but sincerely 
dedicated to her religious path. A motherly quality but looks up to Mother 
Shaw. Excellent dancer, with training in modern and tradition West African. 
Must also sing well but needn't be a professional singer.

Velma- 35-45, childlike and carries herself with great flair, can also be 
an earthy comforter. Excellent singer.

Mabel- 60, strong and fiery. Must deliver a sermon that brings down the 
house. Singer and dancer but needn't be a professional at either.

All actors please prepare: A monologue and two songs (a spiritual and an 
upbeat gospel). Please also bring a hat if you have one; men please bring a 
brimmed hat if you have one.

You may be asked to dance, so please dress appropriately, and you may be 
asked to read from the script. Please also let Ed Ridley, the musical 
director, know if you can play the tambourine.

Auditions will be by appointment only, on Friday July 9 from 4-8, with 
callbacks the following afternoon. For an appointment, please respond to 
this email or call 216 795 7000 x207.
