Job Specifics:

Details:

We are looking for an actor and actress to star in a teaser trailer in aid of promoting an up and coming paranormal romance novel being published online.

The trailer itself will be about 2 minutes long and consist of many short snippets of scenes, muted under a powerful instrumental piece. So although a general script will be provided closer to the shoot, we will be concentrating on an emotionally charged performance rather than delivery of lines. The Garden State teaser trailer is a good point of reference for the style and feel of the shoot.

We may decide to do a scene or two from the book closer to the time as well, in this event scripts will be provided in advance.

There will also be a photo shoot with the extremely talented ALUK (http://www.alukshots.co.uk) on the day and the job will be in exchange for prints and a copy of the film to stock your portfolio. Your name will be featured prominently in the film and be sent out to 15k+ followers across various social networks by the author, photographer and videographer.

The shoot will involve heated arguments, a little comedy, the character to be extremely frightened and a kiss with the leading lady- so a chance to show off all your skills.

Lunch will be provided and the shoot is expected to take place over one day, mid to late June.
We may also have a social meeting before so everyone can get acquainted before the shoot.

“Dead Even is a story of love after death.
Our leading lady (Jasmine) has never had much success with men.
She over thinks everything, could do with losing a few pounds, oh yes, and she’s dead.
After an embarrassing domestic accident left her haunting the house she once called home, she is disastrously in love with the new owner, Nicholas Cox.
He is wealthy, successful, handsome, and has no idea she even exists.
Nothing hurts more than unrequited love. Not even falling off a ladder, down a flight of stairs, through the banisters and to your untimely death and she can personally vouch for that one”

As mentioned above, this is an UNPAID role. Lunch will be provided on the day and copies of the images/video with be mailed to you on a disk for your portfolio.

Male role: Nicholas Cox
A wealthy, good looking and fun loving bachelor.
Actor must be okay with implied nudity; a shower scene shot waist up and a scene where character hides modesty with a large cushion
As previously mentioned a photo shoot will also take place on the day and you will need to wear a suit.

Female role: Jasmine
A neurotic, slightly awkward, but lovable ghost who is disastrously in love with the male lead.
Actress must be okay with implied nudity; there will be a shower scene shot shoulders up.
As previously mentioned a photo shoot will also take place on the day and you will need to wear jeans, a dark tank top and optional a dark jumper
