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.
 
These are lead roles and require actors for all 10 episodes.
The Rosie character requires that you know sign language. If not, we will try to hire someone who can help but prefer if you know it and can briefly show a few basics to another actor.
 
Blake Edwards: (mid 20s) 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.
 
Rosie Parker: (early to mid 20s) 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.
 
Kat Finch: (mid 20s) 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.
