Alexandria – Casting Call for Independent Short Film – Oct 14-16 2024 – Paid

Casting Call – Low Budget Indie Short – my 40 page script “The Gifting”; a situation comedy slice of life slightly non-PC humor shot locally in the DMV area. The lead roles already accounted for. This scene just needs more people.

THREE Small Speaking Roles needed:

[1] Asian Male, 24-34, $175/8 + 1.5x OT, you are a guest at friendly neighborhood party

[1] Hispanic Male, dual Spanish/English speaking, 50-80 $225/8 + 1.5x OT, you are a grandpa at the party

[1] Hispanic Boy, act/look like a 7yr old……I have people more experienced than me getting leads on possible options here…but happy to square away someone ASAP. Rate TBD.

[1] Studio Teacher, I currently have 1 option who will confirm tomorrow, but please share your info so I have on file

SIX Background Extras needed:

– 2-3 women 25-50 age range all races $125/8
– 2-3 men 25-50 age range all races $125/8

Scheduling: Oct 14, 15, 16. Dates are firm.

NIGHTS, OUTDOORS, 6p-2a, 8hrs, start time subject to shift slightly. Dinner catered 10pm.

Filming Location: Alexandria VA residential neighborhood

****child actor will not stay later than 9pm (so only 2hrs/day). I don’t know the laws and regulations, but I feel like this is a conservative safety net to start with. I am a parent of a 4yr and 2yr old so I def know anything after 8p is rough for kids.

If you are SAG, I am told you have to get permission from SAG to work on this non-SAG production.

Payment via venmo or check on the spot on the 3rd night. Anything surpassing $650 will receive a 1099nec at the end of the year.
