Casting complete Applications are now closed. 2629 views Share:
A series of shorts, all set on the tube. They're single take, single camera scenes, shot in public (with permission), with actors on radio mics. We've made five shorts so far and they've turned out great.

They don't require any editing beyond a sound mix, and as a result they're all online the day after the shoot. This is extremely beneficial to actors – normally short films disappear for years..and actors are left chasing for showreel footage. All characters have storylines that allow them to return in future episodes, too, which is quite cool.
