Casting 3 roles for low/nobudget short (in and around pdx)
I'm getting ready to shoot a low/no budget short. Need to cast three roles as follows-
1. "Dead Friend" - male 30s-50s Bald, sort of the classic grim reaper look.
2. "Boss" male 40s-50s, shorter
3. "Tallman Lawyer" -40s-60s Tall and thin, foreign accent or dialogue a huge plus.
The short, will be a little artsy, a little comedic and a little bizarre, should be a lot of fun
Each role will be a one day shoot, should be very low key.
Unfortunately it is a labor of love, and I can only offer credit, copy meal
Please email with resume, photo or video.

Camp staff sought by MetroArts Kids Camp
Now in its 21st year, MetroArts Kids Camp gives 7-12 year olds a chance to experience all the arts – music, dance, theater, and visual arts – for one or two weeks at the Portland Center for the Performing Arts. Kids crank up their creativity through hands-on activities involving each art form and also enjoy live performances, video demonstrations, and classes taught by professional musicians, dancers, actors, and visual artists. Each week's activities culminate with the Friday Project.
Campers meet in the morning on the stage of the Newmark Theatre and are introduced to the key creative words of the day. They also connect with each other by playing theater games. Then it’s off to the first creative experience of the day in music, theater, dance or art! The children work on stage in the Newmark Theater, the Winningstad Theater and all the spaces of PCPA. Throughout the week each camper invents a work in all of the art forms. Whether it’s their own steps to a dance, a unique piece of visual art, a personal rendition of a theater “game”, or a special rhythmic idea in music, every class offers each camper the chance for self-expression. And at the end of the day, the campers share their ideas and accomplishments with each other and the faculty.
MAKC is searching for college counselors in the areas of Visual Arts, Theater, Dance, Music and high school aged volunteers. This is a two week commitment Monday-Friday 8am to 4pm. The counselor positions are paid and volunteers receive documentation of community service hours.
The 2013 camp dates are July 8-12 and 15-19.
Please submit resume and letter of interest electronically. Visit website below for further information on the camp and MetroArts Inc.
