ATTN. FILMMAKERS
by Joseph Bauer via NEohioPAL 16 Apr '17

16 Apr '17

“Teen Angels,” my truth-based, edgy drama is available for production, and I am seeking a Cleveland centric filmmaker with a vision akin to my own with whom to collaborate. – (Afr. Am. or Hispanic, ages 25-35 with Hip Hop acumen and ease with Ebonics and Spanglish is a definite plus.) If that wets your appetite, please contact me at Joeybauer1967(a)gmail.com, and I will forward the screenplay. With a mixed gender and culturally diverse cast of nine, a single set, just one scene and a running time of 90 minutes, “Teen Angels” features a barrage of in-your-face dialogue and pure provocation. Movie goers, particularly ages 16 – 30, are in store for lots of bang for their buck with this one; it brazenly holds nothing sacred: family values, the law of the land nor, especially, authority figures of all stripes. The story takes place in a day room at Los Angeles County Juvenile Hall now and focuses on a very unique group therapy session, for which the closest comparison is a no-rules-ultimate-fighting-cage-match, led by social worker and aspiring movie cowboy, Mel Feinberg, 26, self-described as “a wise ass on a short leash.” The posse consists of seven inmates, all of them age 17, awaiting sentencing and quivering in a melodramatic display of mock fear of Dr. Crabtree, Afr. Am., the facility’s director, staunch advocate of force feeding her charges the gospel by any means necessary. As a side bar, we are drawn into the kids’ compelling histories of victimization and mind-blowing mayhem through a succession of brutally honest monologues/psychic bloodlettings. Their pain has a long shelf life, and it demands to be felt. With tongues and minds racing at warp speed and thoughts and emotions jostling for position, they are eagerly and suspiciously sorting out each other’s identities like an industriously sniffing, newly formed pack of dogs. We cheer them on, as they fight the power with only the strong left standing. My other work includes the risqué memoir, *Hollywood Raw*, and “On the Wall,” an urban drama, presented by L.A.’s Barnsdal Gallery Theatre. In addition, “Hotel California,” my psychological thriller; “Hollywood Cowboy,” my comedy; and “Cue the Sunset,” my Bronx tale - (all read at Cleveland’s Ensemble Theatre) – put my stamp on a multitude of theater patrons’ must-see lists. Apropos, a retrospective of my portfolio is available on kindle – (Amazon and all other apps). I look forward to hearing from you and thank you for your interest. Cheers, Joey Bauer

LILLIAN PYLES CASTING / 'DEATH METAL'
by via NEohioPAL 15 Apr '17

15 Apr '17

'DEATH METAL' feature film...being shot June 2017. The breakdown and film description for ‘DEATH METAL’ can be found: lillianpylescasting.com (under the NEWS tab) & LILLIAN PYLES CASTING FACEBOOK Below are the two (2) characters being auditioned Tuesday April 18th 2pm-6pm EMAIL: Headshot & resume for consideration to audition: deathmetalauditions(a)gmail.com THE COMPOSER: (middle aged) The Composer is incredibly talented, but lacking that certain something that would bring him/her the fame and fortune he/she craves. He/she made a deal with the darkness in exchange for immortality, thinking that would mean his/her music would echo through the ages; instead, he’s/she’s a nameless ghost trapped in the music’s curse until he’s/she’s able to find a replacement. Once, he/she was just a kid from the French countryside who came to Paris with nothing but a violin and an artist’s heart; now, his/her soul has been thoroughly corrupted by evil. (Must speak some French or able to fake it well & familiar with the violin) DEVIN: (male, 20s). Devin is Abyssinister’s bass player. He’s an ironic, sharp-tongued guy who doesn’t take anything too seriously, including the band, and his prodigious drug use. He loves to get under other bank members skin. Devin enjoys playing metal because he thinks it’s ridiculous fun. At heart, he’s a decent guy, but he’s cynical, and needs to test people and situations with HUMOR to see if it’s for real before he commits himself.
