$100/project
Description:

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Seeking actors for "Theo – a love letter" Film. Please see the details below. About the project: Production Type: Student Film Run Time: Short Genre: Experimental, Drama, Self-discovery Logline: A woman named Theo who is alone and in the midst of a deep depression, explores her sense of self through routine activities, both ordinary and extreme, before realizing that she might need outside help. Project Description: Theo represents an ideological conglomeration of women and the mundane activities of womanhood, existential realizations, and mental health struggles that they endure when left alone with their own company. The ideas demonstrated throughout the film come from my own personal experiences, other women’s experiences attained through an understanding of western womanhood, surveys, and shared conversations, and from Theo’s figurative experiences as a multi-dimensional character that have now been pulled from two previous untold stories and has since evolved as both a character and symbolic idea. Theo transcends the boundaries of fiction and invites us to exist in the same space as a woman in her most vulnerable and lively form. (This is a film that focuses on a theme, poetic visuals, and strong emotion. There is a very limited dialogue in this story, so visual and emotional presence will be at the forefront of this film.) Rate: Unpaid. Compensation in the form of reel footage and on-set meals. Additional info: Union Status: Non-Union Dates: November 4-6, and 11-13 Filming Location: Denver area COVID-19: We will be following the safety precautions and guidelines recommended by the CDC and the Colorado Film School When applying, please send your headshot, general information, and previous reel footage or audition footage.
