Casting Notice
by Matthew Herbertz via NEohioPAL 28 Jul '15

28 Jul '15

Hello! I should still be a neohiopal subscriber. But, I wanted to post a casting notice for my next short film: CASTING NOTICE Production Title: Deadpoint Union/Non-Union: Non-Union/SAG Production Type: Independent/Graduate Student Thesis Production Company: Ohio University Film Division Project Length: 20 minutes Project Format: ARRI ALEXA and RED 4K Cinema Cameras Posted On: Tuesday, July 28, 15 Production Location: Athens, Ohio Director: Matthew Herbertz Producer: Samuel Stewart Audition Location: 31 S Court Street, Athens, OH 45701 Shooting Location: Athens, Ohio/Logan, Ohio/Meigs County, Ohio Email: herbertzfilm(a)gmail.com Compensation: Negotiable (Emily and Rick characters)* Submit headshot and schedule audition: herbertzfilm(a)gmail.com KEY DATES Auditions: *Scheduled* August 14th, 2015 6:00PM – 10:00PM August 15th, 2015 1:00PM – 6:00PM August 16th, 2015 1:00PM – 6:00PM (video auditions may be submitted if commute is more than an hour) Call Backs: August 22nd or August 23rd, 2015 2:00 – 6:00 PM Shooting Starts: September 17th, 2015 Shooting Ends: September 20th, 2015 Lead Actor Pickup Day: September 26th or 27th Synopsis: Deadpoint is a short horror/action film about a woman who goes into the woods and discovers what she’s capable of. Emily is a high school principal who leaves her boyfriend after discovering that he has a dark and controlling side. She heads for a backpacking weekend in the mountains to clear her mind, but when she stumbles upon a dead body, she realizes that life is only going to get more complicated... And someone is watching her. Emily is forced to face her deepest fears in ways she never thought possible and realizes that sometimes the only way to get justice is to fight for it. Deadpoint is a genre-mashing nonstop adrenaline ride with a powerful female lead. Emily uses her intelligence and physical power to fight the forces of nature-- and the forces of evil. Think of it as Deliverance meets Halloween - but this time, Jamie Lee Curtis doesn’t put down the knife. The film is as fun as it is terrifying, and with equal parts feminist politics and compelling storytelling. Deadpoint will be shot in Logan and Athens, Ohio in September by award winning filmmaker, Matthew Herbertz. He recently received a substantial grant from Ohio University to aid in this production of his thesis film. CHARACTERS: EMILY (Must be in physically fit condition! Will have to climb on rocks in hocking hills region, swim in the strong hocking river, be outdoors in the elements for almost all of shooting!) F, 30 – 35 years old, any race Emily is a single physically fit thirty five year old high school principal who moved to the area just over a year ago. She does not have many friends and is not particularly close to her family. A pensive and independent loner. She spends most of her time at work but, when she isn’t running a high school, Emily is outside hiking, trail running, and camping. She has just started dating Rick and starts to realize he is not at all the man she thought he was. In fact, he is like all of the men in her life: hyper-masculine, oppressive, and controlling. Emily is strong, resilient, intelligent, resourceful, and LOVES the outdoors. RICK M, 35-38, white Rick is a know-it-all macho alpha male who has to wear the pants in the relationship. Strong women intimidate and scare him. At first, Rick thought Emily’s presence and manner was a good balance for his personality. Now, he finds himself trying to control her and make her do what he wants to do in order to feel in power. He sees Emily as a trophy that he can show off to his friends. Rick is in very good shape, muscular, attractive, charismatic and HATES the outdoors. MICHAEL M, 25-28, white (dead body/makeup work must be done) A man who wants to become one with nature. Michael frequently has his shirt off and has the chiseled body to own it. The raggedy khaki carpri’s he wears low on his hips in the middle of the forest make him feel free. A child-like character who smokes a lot of weed and plays with fireworks. He lives his life in a zen-like state of mind taking it as it goes. He frequents the same parks Emily hikes and often makes camp where he isn’t allowed. A harmless rebel. THE KILLER M, any adult age, stocky, muscular, and physically fit! Robed in jeans, a black hoodie, and a demented mask, the killer is a large intimidating MALE. Matthew Herbertz Ohio University Film Division 317-525-2218

Kids Missing Their Manners? Give'em a Dose of Back to School Theater
by Kulture Kids Admin via NEohioPAL 28 Jul '15

28 Jul '15

*What Happened to The Golden Rule?* *Kulture Kids’ Original Children’s Theater Performance Shows Manners Matter* Children and their families are invited to journey with a zany (and not so polite) archaeologist in search of The Lost Temple of Ma’at, the Egyptian goddess of truth, justice, and civility. Ancient Egypt comes to life in a spectacle of magic, comedy, music, dance, and hieroglyphics that urges us all to remember our manners. This is a show you don’t want kids to miss! Kulture Kids’ newest original children’s theater production, *Ma’at is Missing: Deciphering Manners* addresses the seeming lack of civility, manners, and kindness in society today. The audience is tasked with helping a nutty professor discover and unravel clues to the Lost Temple of Ma’at and decipher the ancient hieroglyphics within that illustrate how we should treat one another. From simple etiquette when coughing or sneezing, to how we consider others’ thoughts and feelings before we speak, Ma’at is Missing guides children on an expedition to find out why our manners matter. Ma’at is Missing: Deciphering Manners will take the stage on August 21 at 7:00pm, August 22 at 3:00pm and 7:00pm, and August 23 at 7:00pm. A hands-on family art workshop is included in the ticket price and will take place 30 minutes before the start of each performance. A reception will follow the opening night performance. The performance will tour throughout September and October 2015 at branches of the Cuyahoga County Public Library. Additionally, schools, libraries, community centers, and other venues are encouraged to bring Ma’at to their venue by contacting Kulture Kids at schedule(a)kulturekids.org. Funding by CUYAHOGA ARTS AND CULTURE, THE GEORGE GUND FOUNDATION, and THE OHIO ARTS COUNCIL. *PERFORMANCE DETAILS* *DATES/TIMES* August 21 at 7:00PM, August 22 at 3:00PM & 7:00PM, August 23 at 3:00PM *LOCATION* Kultivation Theater, 2134 Lee Road, Cleveland Heights, 44118 *TICKETS* $10 each, includes performance and pre-show family arts workshop *AGES* This show is ideal for children between the ages of 4 and 10, but all children and adults are welcome. *ABOUT KULTURE KIDS* Founded by Robin Pease in 1999, Kulture Kids is a nonprofit dedicated to promoting and enhancing arts and cultural awareness for children through arts education programming. A leading provider of arts programs for schools, libraries, community centers and arts organizations, Kulture Kids uses original, participatory, educational performances, workshops, and residencies to support arts integrated learning and the ideal of E Pluribus Unum: out of many, one.
