The Cast is Set!!

Very exciting, in fact so much so I did a little dance after getting off the phone with the last actor I spoke to. There are only few things more satisfying than getting the cast you want, and I'm ecstatic about the group we have together for the upcoming shoot. They performed phenomenally well during the audition and I'm sure they'll have even more to show in August when we go into production. Enough said, here they are:


Anna Safar - Angela


Charles Baker - Brother


Cynthia Uhrich - Mother


Darrin Shaughnessy - Father

Today we held auditions for the teaser video to be shot this Summer. For nearly two years I've been wondering what this process would be like. The film had changed from a traditional narrative to an experimental film with virtually no dialog. So my thought was always, "how donwe audition actors when there's no spoken words in the script?"

In the end it was pretty simple. They acted out the scene were planning to shoot this summer and I was very happy to witness some phenomenal performances. There were a number of actors who completely understood what I was looking for and I could hardly believe it. They obviously spent time re-reading the script and developed their performance with care. I couldn't have been more thrilled with how it went. I'm getting the sense that we might actually be able to pull off this project.

This week I plan on calling the actors I want to be in the film. More updates to follow soon...
