Casting
RottingCorpse:
Full feldged pre-production has begun. We're still in the midst of fundraising, but thing are starting to look up in that department. (At the same time, if anybody has at least $10,000 they'd like to invest . . ) This week has been shopping around for teh best deals on lighting, sound, and camera equipment and putting together teh beginnings of a workable budget.
We're also starting to cast as well. Here's the casting notice I've sent out:
--- Quote from: Ningen Manga Productions ---Feature Film Seeks Female Actors
Ningen Manga Productions is currently in pre-production on a feature film and is collecting headshots for auditions to be held later this year. We are looking for FEMALE ACTORS to fill three very important roles. Closed-minded or faint of heart women need not apply.
--REDHEAD - natural preferred, but dye jobs will be considered. Must be able to look college age. This is a very physical role with combat and dancing. Experience in both a plus. More importantly, this role requires an extremely wide emotional range. Very challenging role, but very rewarding as well.
--AFRICAN-AMERICAN - Very athletically built, and, ideally, very tall. Think Serena Williams meets Wonder Woman. Cool stoicism with a sultry side. Requires combat, so experience a plus. Must have the acting chops to back up the look.
--YOUNG COLLEGE GIRL - Must be able to look 18 -20. Meek and insecure, a diamond in the rough. This character makes many visual and emotional transformations so a wide range is required.
Non-Union is preferred, though all applicants will be considered. There is minimal pay, as this film is ultra-low budget. A four week, six days a week shooting schedule is planned. We are based in the DC area, but shooting could require some travel. If interested, please send a headshot and resume in an email with the subject heading: "Ningen Manga Headshot" to lonnie@ningenmanga.com .
Last year, Ningen Manga Productions completed the short film, First Session, which went on to garner positive reviews and was accepted as an official entry to both the Temecula Valley International Film & Music Festival, and the West Chester Film Festival. More information can be found at http://www.firstsessionmovie.com .
We look forward to hearing from you.

RottingCorpse:
Hey, give it a shot and see what you come up with.
RottingCorpse:
So, we're still a ways off from making most of the casting decisions for Women's Studies. As decisions get made, I'll post them here.
And of course, one has been known for a long time. The lead role of Mary, our resourceful heorine, will be played by none other than Mrs. RC herself, Cindy Marie Martin. It's good to know the director, eh?
