Attention Beginner and Intermediate Level Actors - it's Time to Audition ! YOU'RE AUDITIONING FOR: Cuyahoga Community College's beginner level film and video students - who are about to produce several short projects (entry-level music videos, commercials, drama monologues, and ultra-short narrative films). See some SAMPLES of previously created content further down on this page. This is an "Intro to Filmmaking" class, taught by Prof. Bruno Tatalovic. Several students who completed this course in previous years – are now proud graduates of Tri-C, and newly established Cleveland film artists, videographers, and PAs on big union films shot in Ohio! :) WHEN: March 23 (Fri), any time between 9:15am and 1pm. WHERE: Tri-C Campus in Parma (11000 W Pleasant Valley rd), room C123. WHO SHOULD COME: This type of collaboration is perfect for beginner (or intermediate) 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. Also, if you have NO screen acting experience, but you truly BELIEVE that you have what it takes - COME and try out! PROJECTS TIMELINE: These projects are 1 day (half a day) productions, sometimes in March-April (based on actors' availability). The students must complete their video editing by early May. The videos will be available online, and actors will receive their HD copy, and proper name-credits as well. AUDITION: It's a “walk-in” audition (cold read from our scripts or short personal monologue - if desired). If you wish to attend, 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); WHERE: Tri-C Campus in Parma, Ohio (11000 W Pleasant Valley Rd, park in "visitor"; walk to C-wing); If lost on campus - ask police officers to show you C-111 area). RECEIVE NEW HEADSHOT DISCOUNT: 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 star photographer” Scott in person, so you can make a deal for new headshot! 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 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 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! __________________ SAMPLE PROJECTS PRODUCED IN THIS CLASS — MUSIC VIDEOS: featuring local recording artists and actors (shot on location or in studio); click on links… https://vimeo.com/album/3215203/video/125381154 https://vimeo.com/album/3215203/video/148639487 <https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2Falbum%2F3215203%2Fvideo%2F148639487&h=ATPMO0wlGcsnNyywU6ruferdJEF3wIuv2Nx6ha2Up7nBY3VFSKgEX7gnlWwnuGwvk-MvK8xgtxb0yaZQxA3_JGIIO_l0HBErqeXFSzGH9cNEZy-YedPcot3b5BlwRL9gOZan_hQO> — 30 SECOND ADS: serious subject or comedic (scripted, rehearsed, shot in our studio) https://vimeo.com/album/3215203/video/148642303 https://vimeo.com/album/3215203/video/17568531 — DRAMATIC MONOLOGUES: 2 minute monologue about certain subject (scripted, rehearsed, shot in our studio) https://vimeo.com/album/3215203/video/193532716 https://vimeo.com/album/3215203/video/215195941 — MICRO FILMS: or so called “3-2-1 Short Film Projects” (beginner level film productions featuring 3 pages of scripted narrative, 2 actors, and shot on 1 location only in 1 day).
