Looking for a actor who can portray a Caucasian teenage boy within the age range of 15-18 who is athletic and confident. The young man is charming and has a great smile. However, his charm is quite deceptive when he turns on a teenage girl.

The film is the continuation of a short film by Detroit Independent Filmmaker Kim Rice.We will be shooting within the next two months to wrap the film up. This is an unpaid gig, but rather a great opportunity to build an actor’s reel and gain experience in the field.

Looking for an actor who has a flexible schedule and is serious about the task.

Please email me at kimricefilms@yahoo.com for details.

Feel free to send a resume and headshot as well. Auditions will be held in Detroit, MI within the next week. Thank you for your time!

The Phoenix Armageddon is a CG animated, Independent, Sci-Fi drama intended for film festival submission. All roles are non-union, and unpaid. However, actors cast for the film will receive valuable experience and national exposure if the film makes final selections. Further compensation will be discussed with those who are cast.

Actors of all types are encouraged to audition. If you do not meet the set description of a certain character, you are urged to still audition for that role if you feel you could accurately portray the given character. As this is an animated film, physical appearance will not be much of a factor in final casting.

We ask you prepare a thirty second monologue to showcase your abilities. A short script will also be provided. Auditions are not open to the public, so you must call or e-mail for the location and to reserve a time slot.

For location and to reserve a spot e-mail casting@tkmoonlight.com.

Actors are required to choose three or more audition slots. Also state whether you will be auditioning for a specific role. Reservations are on a first come first serve basis.

Harvey Ovshinsky

• Have the Michigan filming incentives sparked your interest in a career in
  film and video production?
• How can you cash in on the demand for storytelling required for broadcast,
  cable, the Web and institutional and corporate communications?
• In the meantime, how do you find work when there aren’t any jobs?

This seminar is both an introductory program offering practical advice for students and others new to the industry – as well as a highly motivational refresher course for anyone who is struggling in mid – career and could use some help in polishing and honing their survival skills.

How to Produce a Career in Film and Video Production focuses on the branding and entrepreneurial side to film and video storytelling. It is rich with content; providing participants with real‐world examples and personal stories about how to start out, grow, and sustain a career in Michigan’s burgeoning, yet tenuous, production environment.

Topics include:

• “How do you make work when you can’t find any?”
• “How to rewrite your story so that your job search has a happy ending”
• “The 10 best mistakes I ever made and what I learned from them”
• “Plan C: Should I stay in Michigan or should I go?”
