OPEN CASTING CALL!
Due to an overwhelming amount of interest, The University Filmmaker's Organization (UFO) is holding an additional open casting call for their upcoming short film The Gig!
When: Friday, March 4, 4-7 pm

The movie is about a pop-punk type band hurrying to gather all of their members together to play at their biggest gig yet.
We are looking for:
(LEAD) Derek:-- 18-24 singer pop rockish – Positive and confident. Tries to smile through everything. Likeable and relatable to audience.
***Needs to be able to sing***
Mike: – 18-24 (guitar-do not need to know how to play) Is lazy and usually pretty negative. Smooth talker--kind of an ass, but people like him. His attitude rubs Derek the wrong way. Used to date Jenna. This creates tension between the two characters.
Jenna: – 18-24 (drummer-do not need to know how to play) Not negative, just lazy. Doesn't like to go out of her way to do something. There is tension between her and Mike
Andy: – 18-24 (bass-do not need to know how to play) Is the quite type. Goes with the flow.
Mickey: – 25-30 domineering presence--looks good and knows it. Like a used cars salesman. Main goal is to make money. Straight to the point. Can be really nice when it is advantageous to him.
Mike’s Mom: 35-45 cougar
Kids: – younger elementary school kids
Speaking Kid - elementary school age; has a line and throws a cake
To audition, please provide a resume and head shot, and for those who are planning on auditioning for the singing role, please have 16 bars of a song prepared to sing from the pop punk genre. Some suggestions would be the choruses of:
"Face Down" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
"Billionaire" by Travie McCoy
"Check Yes Juliet" by We The Kings
