New South Wales, Australia

Listed by View details

Short Film

I'm presently studying at IFSS in Sydney and am embarking on one of my major projects.

It is a horror/comedy in the vein of "Evil Dead" or "Bubba Ho-Tep". Incredibly self-aware, the occasional one-liner and lots of fake blood.

SYNOPSIS:

Heath and Amy finally get their first house together. As they break the place in with good company, good alcohol and good music, they break into a run-down old shed containing a book. They recite lines from the book, bringing back a long-forgotten evil. As people start dying, they must figure out a way to stop the entity and set things right again

Job payment

Unpaid – this is a collaboration opportunity

Collaborations should create mutual benefit and are usually amateur, student or 'Time for Print' projects.

Heath

Heath is -on the surface, your archetypical dork. Cracks one liners and movie quotes when he can and has contained a wealth of knowledge about all things geek. From comic books to video games to movies.

Male, aged 24 to 32

Acting experience: Extra, Previous unpaid speaking roles, Previous paid speaking roles

Applications closed 16 February 2012.

Amy

Amy is Heath's partner in both romance and crime. Headstrong, sometimes reckless, somewhat of a foil to Heath's geeky and sometimes panicky-ness.
