These spots will be shot during the next six weeks.

VIDEO ON DEMAND
DOMINATRIX: Tall and slender dominatrix type. Be sure to let me know if you have any dominatrix type wardrobe (bustier, leather corset, etc). I have some wardrobe of this type, but we can't be sure it will fit the selected actress. Also indicate if you might be able to borrow this type of wardrobe.
This is a comedy spot: nothing salacious or distasteful about it. You don't have to be a real dominatrix, but it would help. Also OK if you can borrow the wardrobe.
SCHOOL MARM: Older woman. Stern, severe, mean.
HEAVY GUY: Big, overweight guy. Comedy character type. Louis Anderson type.
|
GARAGE BAND
BAND: Young, energetic garage band. NOTE: at this time, I am only looking for a full band: I am NOT casting individuals. Doesn't matter what type of music they play: punk, grunge, metal, alternative, as long as they are the kind of wild and crazy band that might potentially "tear up the stage."
I will give priority to a band that can help me find a funky little music club where they can play and also a real garage (we only need the exterior of the garage). No money for these venues, but we will only need them for a couple of hours.
See https://www.angelfire.com/film/blainbrown for details.
DOG: I need a "funny" dog who can look left, look right, then look at the camera.

WAITING
MALE MODEL: Very handsome male model type. Although he appears as a model in this fashion type spot, it has a comedy twist so it's something different for the reel.
FEMALE MODEL: Killer gorgeous female model. Although she appears as a model in this fashion type spot, it has a comedy twist so it's something different for the reel.
POOL GUY: Regular Joe. Overweight guy with a beer gut. Pleasant and friendly.
UPSIDE DOWN GUY: Pleasant, slightly goofy guy. Must be slightly athletic as he needs to hang upside down from gravity boots. Indicate in your submission if this is OK with you.
|
BOARD ROOM
CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD: Senior executive type. Gray hair, very august.
JUNIOR EXEC: Late 20's or 30's. Up and coming corporate type.
EXEC: Female exec. Very corporate.
