Casting Call for a Short Film "Jammed"

Lead singer of the band honeyknuckle. Punctual, focused, and deeply sensitive-jeff wants everyone to take rehearsal seriously but is constantly undermined by chaos. sarcastic with a simmering volcano of rage under his calm exterior. Think: kermit the frog meets jerry seinfeld with a pinch of happy gilmore. Instrument experience not required. but must be comfortable pretending to play guitar.

Female presenting. Honeyknuckle's bassist and unofficial manager. Smart, dry-witted, no-nonsense. laura handles logistics but doesn't have time for nonsense-yet finds herself surrounded by it. possibly a maneater... possibly just too busy to care. Think: elaine benes, amy santiago, and daria morgendorffer all booked a gig together. Instrument experience not required, but must be comfortable pretending to play bass guitar.

Male presenting. The band's wild card drummer. charismatic, chaotic, and painfully sincere. he shows up 30 minutes late in one shoe and a pink crop top. loves telling tall tales about his wild nights with full confidence. Even when they make no sense. Think: keith moon jack sparrow + ferris bueller. Instrument experience not required. but MUST be comfortable pretending to play drums.

Female presenting or non-binary. Lead guitarist and pedal wizard. quiet, introverted, completely oblivious to sarcasm and social cues. Says things that are awkward. unrelated, or weirdly profound. speaks rarely but makes it count. the only real musician in the band. Think: Wednesday Addams meets abed nadir with donatello's tech obsessions. Instrument experience not required. but must be comfortable with fake guitar pedals and pretending to play electric guitar.
