Casting Actors for "The Nudgers" Short Film
Looking for a male actor for "The Nudgers" short film/teaser. See the breakdown below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: It's 1992, the days of Nirvana and Grunge, and Jeremy, fresh out of college, is living a carefree life of friends, girlfriends, and the wild music scene of the early '90s. Jeremy writes for a local magazine reviewing live bands and interviewing musicians, bartending on weekends, and basking in the joys of being young, wild, and free. Despite a smattering of childhood experiences, including strange meetings with a being he called Grandma, aliens are the last thing on Jeremy's mind. That's when they come roaring back into his life, detailed abductions so terrifying that he changes his work schedule so he can stay awake at night and keep vigil over his surroundings. This is the true story of a young man who didn't believe in aliens, who had laughed at the idea of UFOs and abductions, until they began snatching him out of his bed in the middle of the night, revealing to him what will soon be disclosed — that aliens aren't just flashing lights in the skies. They are complex beings meddling in the lives of humans and nudging humanity in an unknown direction. Rate: $300/day. Additional info: Non-union. 1st round via self tape. Virtual callback: TBD. Production dates: 1 day, TBD (likely late October). Shoot location: Greater Richmond, Virginia. Accommodations: possible if necessary, but the production is looking to cast locally. If you are interested, please apply.
1 role
Jeremy is a young, punk bartender whose biggest concern post-grad has been, until recently, where the next house show will be. Very smart yet wild, and yearning to be free from unconscious tethers. Living on the edge (think Kurt Cobain), possibly to block out some long repressed memories of alien abduction that are starting to resurface. Jeremy is questioning everything, and decides to employ his journalistic skills and access to compare his experiences with others. LEAD
