Audition for: Students' Film and Video Productions
Casting Call held: Friday, Oct 25, from 9:15am to 12:30pm
Where: Tri-C Campus, 11000 W Pleasant Valley Rd, Parma, OH 44130

An AUDITION (open to all) for film students' projects at Cuyahoga Comm.
College (all to be shot in October and November). The student teams will
make various short projects (see below). There are 3-4 different teams, so
we need several actors. You can try out for one of these below, or ALL
projects:

-- “DOCUMENTARY INTERVIEW”: for documentary style INTERVIEW, you (ACTOR or
ARTIST of any kind) will be interviewed about your work and career (the
questions will be submitted in advance to those who are selected at the
audition). If interested to be interviewed, you must attend our audition
and introduce yourself and your creative work. An interview-shooting day is
in late October or early November. Later, you can use this video for your
personal sites and publicity.
-- “DRAMATIC MONOLOGUE”: for this project, selected actors will prepare
dramatic monologue or performance. Prepare a 1-2 minutes monologue (must be
original written content or public domain story) and attend our audition.
Those who are selected will be informed the same day, and the shooting day
is within 2 weeks of audition
-- SHORT FILM or MUSIC VIDEO: you will audition for a LEAD ROLE in
student-produced films or music videos. At the audition, you will read from
our scripts (cold read), and you can also prepare a very short monologue.
If you’re a recording artist, feel free to perform your song. The short
film or music video shoots are scheduled for mid-November.
__________________________________

These projects will be produced by Cuyahoga Community College's beginner
level film students (an "Intro to Filmmaking" class). Several students who
completed this course in previous years – are now proud graduates of Tri-C,
and newly established Cleveland film artists, videographers, and crew
members on big union films shot in Ohio! They all started in this class.

WHERE: Tri-C Campus in Parma, Ohio (park in "visitor"; walk to central
campus area); If lost, ask police officers in hallways to show you G107
room.

WHO SHOULD COME: This type of collaboration is perfect for beginner (or
intermediate) level actors who need more footage for their first demo-reel.
By having a Demo Reel, you will be able to seek industry representation
(agent).

ABOUT PROJECTS: each of these projects give you a lot of screen time and
dialogue or monologue lines. They are all LEAD roles. These are unpaid
(collaboration) gigs. Get your first credit, your demo footage, and
establish new relationships with like-minded content creators. Also, if you
have NO screen acting experience, but you truly BELIEVE that you have what
it takes - COME and try out!

TIMELINE: These projects are 1-day (half a day) shoots. The work must be
fully edited by early December. The videos will be available online when
completed and you can ask students for HD download copy.

AUDITION: It's a “walk-in” audition (cold read from our scripts or short
personal monologue - if desired). If you wish to attend, just click GOING
above, come, and bring the following:
-- headshot or any decent picture of yourself (any size);
-- acting resume (even if it’s very minimal);
-- no resume: have personal contact info (or business card);

RECEIVE NEW HEADSHOT DISCOUNT: Beachwood based Discovery Photo studio
(operated by photographer Scott T. Morrison) is giving special discount
coupon to all who attend this audition in person. HALF PRICE HEADSHOTS!
Come to audition and get your special offer coupon from an award winning
photographer.

INVITE your actor friends. Join us! Only actors who ATTEND this audition in
person will be considered for our projects. 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 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 give you
WRITTEN permission.

ACTORS-WRITERS: If you are screenwriter-actor, feel free to pitch your own
idea or short script, BUT it must follow our educational content rules and
guidelines (see sample projects below, to get an idea). Or stop by, and
chat with us.

MUSICIANS: want to make an entry-level music video? Come and pitch your
original song (must be available online)!
