Looking 4 Interesting People

[999Casting]

We’re casting an indie feature. Now before you draw any kind of conclusion, let me just put a few things out there. We’re not Hollywood toadies or corporate doorknobs. We refuse to be a part of that pathetic media culture that seems intent on beating our collective conscious into a dimwitted pulp.

This project is all about expression and rebellion. Rebellion against the idea that we must all conform to some social model that cannot question the way we are told to live and the truths we are told to believe.

We are not looking for actors. We’re looking for those outliers out there on the fringes trying to get people to open up and become more active in the shaping of their own lives. This project involves sharing an incredibly open experience with a small group of people who will come together to make a film that is not afraid and that will create quite a stir. So please check out our casting page and the submission instructions.

We are open to submissions from all over the world.
English language proficiency is our only requirement.
This will be a paid project.

Please help us find the right people, maybe that's you or someone you know.

regards,

You guys filming an orgy?


Can i be the oil boy?

[pinemom]

nah, we're all very very boring.

[Dr. Pyro]

You're looking for interesting people in this forum? You clearly don't know us very well.

This is from the casting sheet;
"Seeking MAN; 30-40 years

We are seeking a man between the ages of 30 – 40 who speaks English well and wants a chance to express radical ideas and explore the opportunity to live a life with no apparent boundaries. Open to all Nationalities.

Disliking authority is a plus!

"We’re not Hollywood toadies or corporate doorknobs."

i'm sorry, but you just lost all credibility as far as i'm concerned...




ANARCHIST GROUP FORMING......CALL NOW!"

ask for O'Brien or Goldstein, 555-3466.

I usually rub the velvet off my antlers as soon as i can....

[Simon of the Playa]

fucking canadians.

why havent we just called a spade a spade and announced the anschluss already.


Canada...the dull blade of edginess.

[999Casting]

I'm not sure that the U.S.A. has much "edginess" to claim to that isn't some evangelical marine killing Arabs with scripture on his rifle... not that I'm Canadian. I'm from Spain, where half my family were anarchists fighting and dying in the Spanish civil war and the other half were fascists. I guess it shouldn't surprise me that such extremes would eventually merge... pretty sick. As far as I'm concerned, I don't really care about what you do or don't give credence to. You like pulling that trigger, and why should that surprise anyone given the fact that almost everything we encounter that claims rebelliousness is bullshit. And that's true. That's why we're reaching out. Not so someone can tell us how good our casting notice is and give us their rebellious sign of approval, but because we're looking for someone who wants to express those ideas people rarely have a chance to encounter when they sit down to watch a movie. So Simon de la Playa, since I have a personal taste for irreverence, I hope you consider bringing all that disdain in the form of ideas to a casting video, even if it's just to tell me to fuck off. Take care...

[Fire_Moose]

Are you affiliated with the '70s punk band, 999?

[999Casting]

No affiliation whatsoever...

[can't sit still]

Out of curiosity; do you have a script,, screenplay?

[pinemom]

Out of even more curiosity, why did you select Burningman.com to find actors?

[Simon of the Playa]

a very good question piney....

i too am a bit suspect until i see some previous works, Hmmmm?


lets see your resume, this isn't monster.com you know.

[goathead]

lets see your resume,

Simon asking to see what?
Ok who are you and what have you done with the REAL Simon?

[PavementBlues]

We’re casting an indie feature. Now before you draw any kind of conclusion, let me just put a few things out there. We’re not Hollywood toadies or corporate doorknobs.

Of course I wouldn't draw that kind of a conclusion! Since you actually willingly used the word "indie" to describe yourself, I would imagine that you would be more of the type like...oh, for example, someone who would say this:

We refuse to be a part of that pathetic media culture that seems intent on beating our collective conscious into a dimwitted pulp.

You suffer from a massive excess of yang.

[Simon of the Playa]

Ok who are you and what have you done with the REAL Simon?

it's just my bi-monthly electro-shock therapy.

or was it that run-in with a stun gun? Hmmmmm.


either way, i'm much more polite.

I LIKE THIS GUY!

[Simon of the Playa]

i've already sent in 6 of my home videos.


of course, it's all done in Fisher-Price Pixel Vision, but it adds to the grainy, indyishness and garagey flavor that's so necessary if you're trying to be the darling of the new and recently rebellious Sundance Festival.

[can't sit still]

Sundance has aired some great stuff. They just have to kiss a lot of frogs to find it.

[999Casting]

MY LATE RESPONSE...

Sorry I didn't respond to you guys earlier, but we've been working on a short documentary about how big oil and the banks are fucking us a little bit more and a little bit deeper with the Canadian tar sands extraction.

So here goes...

Out of curiosity; do you have a script,, screenplay?

The dialogues aren't scripted because whoever ends up in the movie will be speaking for himself and interacting with what will often be actual situations. We have a scripted structure, or storyline, or series of events that will occur, that's all.

Out of even more curiosity, why did you select Burningman.com to find actors?

We selected Burning Man because we're not looking for actors. We're looking for people who are comfortable being filmed and who want to participate in this project. I've been to Burning Man events in Toronto and I've always respected the diversity and independence of the people I've met and seen at the events.

a very good question piney....

i too am a bit suspect until i see some previous works, Hmmmm?


lets see your resume, this isn't monster.com you know.

From open and ignorant disdain to suspect, I guess that's progress. If you want to see what I've done in the past, all you have to do is visit the website where we've posted the casting information...

I'm the dead guy with a gun in his hand.

Yes, I willingly used the word "indie" to describe this project. I guess that's because the word means an independently funded feature film, which is what we are. It is true, however, that marketing and Sundance with their Big Fat Fucking Greek Wedding indies have given the word some shitty connotations. So maybe it's time to think of a new word that means a real indie, not that other fake shit that may be independently funded, but whose ideas seem to have been directly extracted from the thighs of some fat 5th avenue bitch. I'm open to suggestions.

I LIKE THIS GUY!

Much as I hate to admit it, so do I! And he seems fairly legit so maybe we should help him if we can?

[can't sit still]

He's definitely articulate.

[Simon of the Playa]

so was Mr. Ed.

[pinemom]

So...999, what/who do you want for this here "film"?

[oneeyeddick]

I believe he is looking for flamethrowing penises.

[pinemom]

Not trying to brag or nuttin, but Reno Nv could be a one stop shoppin...har har har

[quote="Much as I hate to admit it, so do I! And he seems fairly legit so maybe we should help him if we can?[/b]

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I would appreciate any help you guys can offer in connecting the right people to this kind of project. It's ironic how much cynicism you encounter when you decide to step out of the system and make a movie with real people from the periphery voicing a well articulated dissent that never seems to make through the mainstream media. And I'm glad you guys want to know who exactly is claiming to be in the process of making a project about expression and rebellion. That could mean a tea-party republican for all you know. So check me out. These are my past two projects...

So...999, what/who do you want for this here "film"?

Flamethrowing penises are pretty good. You can never get enough of those in a movie. Thank you OneEyeDick (OED). So if he can also be articulate, aware that everything is political, that politics is not democracy, more like plutocracy, and willing to let go and shed any future expectations by just becoming that irreverent dissent and pursuit of your own desires with a camera and in the company of a small group of like-minded people looking to do the same... that and a flamethrowing penis would be my ideal candidate.

Not trying to brag or nuttin, but Reno Nv could be a one stop shoppin...har har har

So that's the thing, that's where you can help. If you know someone in Reno Nv or anywhere else who you think might be into doing something like this, it would be great if you could tell them about the idea and the casting.

Funny as it may seem to other people, I figure I have a better chance at finding authenticity in the Burning Man Community than a casting agency or a lot of other places. I hope this isn't some kind of Catch-22 where because you're looking for someone who in this current climate of gradual fascism doesn't want to be controlled or found, you can't find him. Anyway, I always thought there was something to Heller.
