Casting Call for Female Actor (18-30)
Thursday, April 11th, 2019 at 12:40 pm | News & Events
Casting call for an actress (roughly between the age of 18 and 30) to appear in a proof of a concept video for a TV fantasy series.
About the Project:
TITLE: Hurricane Devour Me
GENRE: Black Fantasy Comedy
SYNOPSIS: Set within a fantasy world, a right wing beauty pageant host, performs a radio show about the “merits” of discrimination after being de-platformed for his content. Following a consumption of some psychedelic cacti, the host hallucinates that all his body parts are prank calling the broadcast, including his penis. Is the host a victim of a puritanical pc culture or a true hateful bigot? That is for the audience to decide. It mixes a vibe similar to The Mighty Boosh and Black Mirror.
The making of this video is a proof of concept to gain funding to turn it into a fully fledged series that could ideally be viable to appear on something like Netflix or Amazon or some other platform.
Here is a little video that has been already shot already. It’s in the first part of the showreel. Warning: Video contains flashing lights.
Casting for:
CHARACTER NAME: Tumbleweed
SPECIE: Wind Leech
DETAILS: Has been grown to believe that she is inferior in her lineage (despite some creeping doubt) compared to other fantasy land creatures. Having undertaken various training regimes/brainwashing programs under the nudging of her grandfather, she is conditioned to be subservient and “know her place in society”. We then follow her years later, where she rebels against her conditioning and learns to distrust authority. Tumbleweed is one of the main characters of the story and the only character that would appear in all episodes of the series.
Role requires prosthetics so actor must not be allergic.
