Casting Call for "The Magenta Shamrock"
My colleague Cameron Dozier and I are still casting our independent short film “The Magenta Shamrock” slated for late summer production. We have already auditioned a number of people for each of these roles but we would like to bring in a few more people before our first round of call-backs.
Logline: An elderly man discovers that his and a former lover’s sexual encounters have become an internet video hit. He contacts her in the hopes of rekindling their love affair.
This will be a SAG Short Film contract production and all actors will receive some pay in addition to copy, credit and meals. Auditions will be scheduled on an individual basis. If interested, please send a headshot and resume to jon@rock-creek.com. Please indicate in the email which role you are seeking and why you believe you would be a good fit.
We need to fill the following roles ASAP:
Zachary Masters (65-70, white). He is a charming, southern gentleman type who despite his age, still possesses a bachelor-like attitude but also a soft-side for old fashioned romance. He's never been married and has spent most of his adult life as a successful business executive.
Sandra Billing (55-65, white). She is a divorced professor of history at a major university with lower-class roots whose free-spirited days have since passed. She finds herself at a time in her life where she is a creature of routine who largely keeps to herself. Her home life is quiet and generally solitary, except for the occasional visit from her son, and the companionship of her aging golden retriever.
Motel Clerk (unnamed) - (35-45, any), seedy looking, perverse, freakish.
We are looking forward to reviewing your submissions. Please email us only. No phone calls please.

CASTING NOTICE
This casting notice is for the next SaintSinner Entertainment project, a
SAG feature film titled SAY HELLO TO THE NIGHT, which was written and will
be directed by Amel J. Figueroa (The Quiet Ones). This film will feature
recognizable Hollywood talent mixed with up and coming actors of various
age ranges, and will shoot in late August through September in Maryland.
SAY HELLO TO THE NIGHT is a chaotic revenge thriller in the vein of
feature films like Ms. 45 and The Brave One, but with it's own darker,
twisted edge.
The story centers around a young woman who's a promising medical student
that's assaulted and violated by a group of coldhearted thugs one horrible
night. After sufffering this act of violence, she spends every moment of
her day dedicated to exacting revenge on the men that took her soul, all
the while creating a darkness within herself that can't be measured or
condoned. She will have her revenge, and it will be deadly and fatal for
those that wronged her!
Here's the breakdown for this character we're currently casting for.
VALERIE (female lead)- 20's, Asian or Hispanic, strong acting presence,
very smart, sexy, tough, yet vulnerable, almost dead inside, but alive
enough to seek the revenge she so craves against those that ruined her
existence.
This role has many layers, so we're seeking an actress that can be
believable in not just one area of this character's personality, but one
that can encompass all of the different character traits Valerie exhibits
throughout this story.
SAG & Non-Union actresses can apply, but solid acting experience is
necessary for this role, so serious inquiries only.
OTHER CASTING NEEDS:
YOUNG VALERIE (Caucasian (darker hair), Asian, or Hispanic, ages 5 to 10)
VALERIE'S GRANDPA (Asian or Hispanic, late 50's or early 60's, creepy)
HOMELESS WOMEN (any ethnicity, 40's or 50's, loud and animated)
FEMALE NURSING STUDENT TYPES (only 3 needed, day players)
POLICE OFFICER TYPES (featured & background only)
GENTLEMEN'S CLUB EMPLOYEES & DANCERS (featured & background only)
GENTLEMEN'S CLUB PATRONS (featured & background only)
COFFEE SHOP EMPLOYEES (only 2 needed, featured)
GENERAL BACKGROUND TALENT (any age or ethnicity)
Pay for all lead, supporting, and day player roles. Featured and
background pay TBD.
Please send headshot, resume, and reel if you have one to
casting@saintsinnerent.com, for consideration by SaintSinner Entertainment
for an audition for this role. If you have links to a reel, or video clips
on YouTube, etc., please include them as well.
