This is our 6th year of working together with local talent!

Cuyahoga Community College's beginner level film and video students are
creating several short projects (experimental videos, music videos,
commercials, short docs, and super short narrative films), and need local
talent. This is an "Intro to Filmmaking" class, taught by Prof. Bruno
Tatalovic. Several students who completed this course in previous years –
are now established local film artists, and they won... first filmmaking
awards at local festivals and Cleveland’s 48-Hour-Film contests (Anthony
Taylor). Some former students are already working on indie feature films
(Thomas Matheis, Chris Arthur)…

This type of collaboration is perfect for beginner level actors who need
more footage for their first demo-reel. Each of these projects feature 1-2
actors only, and gives you a lot of screen time and dialogue or monologue
lines. These are unpaid (volunteer / collaborate) productions. Get your
first credit, your acting demo, and establish new relationships with
like-minded content creators.

As we know – it’s very difficult to start up in film industry and (if
you’re an actor) to get an agent. So, if you REALLY want to become an actor
- join local indie film artists and students now, and create content! Don't
just be an INVISIBLE and UNCREDITED “extra” in big out-of-town films. ACT
in local student projects! Also, if you have NO screen acting experience,
but you truly BELIEVE that you have what it takes - COME and try out! These
projects are 1 day (half a day) productions, sometimes in late
October/November (based on actors' availability). This is “walk-in”
audition (cold read or short personal monologue - if desired).

If you wish to attend this audition, bring the following:
-- 8x10 headshot or any decent picture of yourself;
-- acting resume (even if it’s very minimal);
-- if you don’t have a resume, make sure to have personal contact info (or
business card);

HEADSHOT PHOTO SPECIAL OFFER: Beachwood based Discovery Photo studio
(operated by photographer Scott T. Morrison) is giving special discount
coupon to all who attend student audition – HALF-PRICE HEADSHOTS ! Come to
audition to get your special offer coupon, and meet Cleveland’s “movie
photographer” Scott in person.

Feel free to invite your actor friends. Join us! Only actors who ATTEND
this audition in person will be considered. If students don't find
appropriate talent at this audition - they might consider additional talent
(but the preference will be given to those who show up). SAG-AFTRA members
are welcome, but they must prepare and coordinate union paperwork
themselves. The beginner level students are not fully prepared (at this
level) to handle advanced professional level producing duties, such as
union contracts. Plus, the union requires paperwork well in advance.

MINORS: if you're under 18 years of age, your parent must give you
permission to audition and act. Bring your parent, or have him/her sign a
form - giving you permission.

ACTORS-WRITERS: If you are screenwriter-actor, or if you have an amazing
location that student can use - feel free to pitch your own idea or short
script, BUT it must follow our educational rules and guidelines. Stop by
and chat with students.

MUSICIANS: want to make an entry-level music video? Come and pitch your
original song!
