Film4's new competition, asks us to re-create a scene from one of their produced films. But this time putting our own spin on it!

I have chosen the film 127 Hours, to re-create. Film4 allows us to totally re-work a scene, with the most original standing the best chance of winning.

I cant tell you, what my scene idea will be until we get further into the auditions.

One thing I can say about the project is that, the character you will be playing will be the character James Franco played. And in a sense, you will be playing James Franco. Portraying him as a actor also. Thats the most important being the role of Franco. Not a comedy piece, just re-creating the actual character.

So please apply if you think you can do that. (Also if you do apply for the role - you will need to provide a bagpack that could be passed to matching the one we see within the film).

This is a great chance to get scene nation wide! As Film4 will be broadcasting the winning entry.

You can be asured your in safe hands with me, I have directed a number of different projects, getting top grades for them. So I know what works. I have just brought a new top of the range camera, so it will all add to a high ended finished product. But my passion is directing, and my greatest pleasure of that, is working and getting the best out of actors. I love it! I understand what a great job you guys you do, and appreciate it especially when you are choosing to work for me. So together we will get the best possible outcome.

The filming will be done within the Walsall area (Brownhills(, which is within Birmingham West Midlands.

Please only apply if you have any chance of getting to the location.

And I cannot wait to work and hear from you!

James Franco (Aron Ralston)

Your acting ability for this role is most important. But if you could resemble the look of Franco, that's a addded bonus. If not its not a big problem.

You will need to provide your own bike to ride ideally matching the one in the film. And be able to ride it in the woods. And provide clothes that match Franco's character within the film. (If you could grow facial hair like him too that would be a added bonus).

And be able to display a great range of emotions e.g crying too laughing instan
