Actors
Needed! (Provo UT)
Male and Female Actors needed for a
Student Film Project.
This is a NON-PAYING gig, they are just
looking to become recognized, a good opportunity to get your name out there.
The project is an eight part drama
series revolving around eight survivors of the apocalypse and how the events
affect them personally and with each other.
More details to be offered for those
who reply.
Auditions will be held at BYU Campus
the evening of August 27th and from 10:00pm-5:00pm, August 28th.
DAY ZERO SYNOPSIS:
Set around the mid 22nd century, the earth has been mostly
destroyed as a result of a World War. Radiation and Fallout from a
global attack has affected most of the survivors (roughly ten percent of the
world’s previous population) and drove them completely crazy, also affecting
their physical appearances and abilities. The infected hunted down
and killed almost all of those unaffected, but eight random strangers have
managed to survive.
Characters:
Cameron Clark: (22
Years Old) Cameron is a mellow, optimistic, slightly sheltered character.
He tends to be on the shy side, but is also very sincere.
He joins the pre-existing group in the pilot episode, shortly following
Kat and Russell. He generally finds himself in the position of the
mediator as tensions tend to run high.
Rachael
Shore: (18 Years Old) Rachael is the youngest in the group and feels a
constant pressure to compensate for her age and any weakness she may
possess. She acts tougher than she is in an effect to seem
invulnerable, though she is actually quite sensitive. She is
argumentative, stubborn, arrogant, and angry, though on occasion tends to be
flirty, particularly when dealing with Cameron’s shyness.
Russell Braddock:
(26 Years Old) Russell is a straight laced Army Officer and something of a nerd,
though a sharp sense of humor occasionally manifests itself. He
operates as a strict father figure, contrasting with his “Almost-Wife” Kat’s
more compassionate personality. Between the two of them, he is the
more level headed.
Kat Finch: (23
Years Old) Kat acts as something of a mother for the rest of the group, being
fiercely protective by nature. She is generally optimistic and
outgoing. Kat was raised in the Deep South and has only had up to
a fourth grade education, but is bright in general. She, along
with her “almost-husband” Russell, takes on the role of “breadwinner” as she
learned to hunt at age seven.
Landon Parker: (19
Years Old) Landon is a very laid back character most of the time, despite his
older sister Rosie’s smothering nature. He is deaf and asthmatic,
but does not like to feel useless, so pushes himself to a breaking point
sometimes. He is a happy character and is able to connect and get
along easily with everyone in the group.
Rosie Parker: (22
Years Old) Rosie is one of the more delicate members of the group.
She is shy, gentle, innocent, and will only handle a gun in the most
desperate of situations, even then firing with her eyes closed.
She is overly protective of her younger brother Landon due to his asthma
and deafness, almost to the point of coddling him, which causes him to push
further away.
Blake Edwards: (24
Years Old) Blake is a struggling drug addict, and as a result of withdrawals and
general issues with depression is constantly attempting suicide.
He is generally moody and sarcastic, in constant battle with Rachael, and
bitter at their entire situation in general. He is still a likable
character though as he does contribute to the group in ways the others
couldn’t.
Jim Lecter: (27
Years Old) Jim, a sociopath, was in Prison during Day Zero for murder.
Before Day Zero he was a surgeon, which leaves him as the group’s
medic. He is sarcastic and seemingly careless, though a layer of
deeper level emotions is clearly visible at certain points. He has
a soft spot for Rachael and sees her as a younger sister while also harboring
one for Rosie that he is unsure of.
