[NEohioPAL] Need a middle aged/senior citizen man for a short comedic film shoot A.S.A.P.

[Seth Kopchu]

Who: We're Cleveland State University film students, and we're trying to
make a short web series to be filmed over a period of what will amount to
be about two or three days of simple production. Our lead actor dropped out
on us for this project, meaning we have to re-cast this crucial role as
soon as possible. We need a middle aged to senior citizen man (preferably
one new to acting or has not acted in a lot of productions) who can
memorize simple lines, but most importantly, isn't afraid to be a part of a
project that is a comedy that pokes fun at their old age, as well as other
things going on in the world at this time. This means saying suggestive
lines and being able to be part of a joke. We're not making fun of anyone
here, but rather, the character that you would be portraying, not the
actor. We're also going to be intentionally filming the actor delivering
their lines poorly, as if this is their first time ever playing a
character. So if you can pull off the effect of looking like an amateur
instead of acting like one, that's even better.

What: This is for a short film that will be cut into a web series entitled
"The Casual Klondike", which will be uploaded onto YouTube. While we're
trying to preserve exact plot details for this project, here is a simple
tagline to give you a basic idea: "A surrealist web series about two senior
citizens who get to attend college for free after they turn 60 years old."

When: This is up in the air, but the sooner, the better. We don't want to
waste any more time on this. So as soon as someone is locked in, we'll get
started immediately. Please make sure your schedule is open - most of our
production problems stem from scheduling issues. If you're a busy person,
then this may not be the project for you.

Where: This entire production will be shot in downtown Cleveland, OH, at
Cleveland State University.

Contact Information: If you're interested in this part, please let us know
and we can set up an audition. Please send any headshots, resumes, and
other acting credentials and information to MovieMaker5087 at gmail.com. Thank
you!
