HI OC Screenwriters,
We are a small independent production based in Orange County that's looking for two actors for a short film we'll be shooting this summer, titled "Plan B"
The story is a gritty comedy about two lifelong friends and a drug deal gone bad. To give you an idea of the tone and style, it's somewhere along the lines of Quentin Tarantino, profanity included.
The two roles we're seeking to fill are Chuck (25-30) and Walter (40-48)
Chuck: tall, lanky, easy going Californian flat personality.very earnest.
Walter: old, tired this life of crime, just wants to go home watch tv and fall asleep. is not impressed by anything.
At the moment, we can only offer copy/credit and meal but we are working towards additional funding to be able to pay our actors a stipend as we value their talent and time.
We are a team that loves films and the filmmaking process, we believe in hard work and respect and value all of our crew and cast with every project. We also try in squeeze in a little fun because well, we love what we do and want everyone to feel as though their talent and contributions are being seen and heard.
If interested please email me This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. we can send you over a script and you can see if it's something you'd like to be involved with.
Thank you for your time! :)

Students and first time feature writers welcome.
We're looking for someone who wants to collaborate and be creative with the rest of the team as we all sculpt this film from the ground up. Once we receive samples, we will contact you if we feel you may be a good fit. You can view the director's reel at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUrwKI5mY_Y.
