Seeking Talent for "Floater" Film

Vancouver, BC, Canada
ID: 305692Exp: 3/10/2026
Description:

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Casting actors for production of "Floater". Please, see the details below. About the project: Floater is an experimental short horror film set in the point of view of a young girl. Kaylee has been brought to the hospital after waking up screaming and thrashing in the middle of the night. The doctor wishes to examine her but Kaylee refuses to open her eyes because believes that there was a monster in her room and that it's still there with them as they speak. If she opens her eyes, it will get her. Rate: Non union. Volunteer. Additional information: Audition Location TBA. Shoot/Performance Date(s) April 4th. Shoot/Performance Location(s) Vancouver. There will be two shoots. One to record Kaylee's dialogue as the film takes place entirely in her POV, and another to shoot playback with the other actors in the hospital room. This means that for the actor playing Kaylee, the date of recording can be flexible as they do not have to coincide with rest of the production. Submission Deadline March 10, 2026. When applying, please submit a head shot, resume and reel if you have one.
