**Casting Call for UCLA film!**
Hey there! FPS is filming a short film, and we are looking for actors!
The rate for each role is copy/meal/credit.
You must be available Saturday, October 30 or Sunday, October 31 for auditions, and for our shoot dates of November 13 and 14. We are looking for the following roles:
Role 1: Clio is a 16-year-old girl in high school. While she does not like to admit it, she does care about her studies. She was raised by her mom and lives with her mom and her cousin Randy. She has a tense relationship with her mother because her mother is tough on her and overprotective, partially because she was born very prematurely. Clio hides her desire to study, as well as who she is friends with. She is secretly dating a boy, who makes her happy, but she cannot tell her mother as her mother does not want her to date.
Role 2: Jenny is 36 years old. She is the mother of Clio, who she is very protective of. She raised Clio on her own after Clio was born prematurely, and she also has housed her nephew Randy. She cares about Clio’s future, so she is very focused on Clio studying and making friends with people who she sees as good influences. She became pregnant at a young age and has a ‘crazy’ past. She likes EDM and is still young in many ways. She is concerned about Clio falling down the same path as her, so she tries to keep Clio away from dating or people who she sees as bad influences. While there is tension between her and Clio, she loves her daughter very much and only wants what’s best for her.
Role 3: Randy is the 20-year-old nephew of Jenny, and the cousin of Clio. He is easygoing and fun to be around. After living with Jenny and Clio, he has found his own apartment and will be moving out. While everyone will miss him, this is a good choice for him and he is happy to move.
Role 4: Grandma Lee is an old woman and the mother of Jenny. Grandma Lee is very proud of Clio and her accomplishments so far. She believes that it is about time for Clio to start dating, as she met her own husband at only twelve years old.
Role 5: Grandpa Frank Lee is the father of Jenny and the grandfather of Clio. He met his wife when they were 12 years old.
Role 6: The boy is Clio’s boyfriend. He is 16 years old and goes to school with Clio. He is funny and kind and makes Clio happy. He thinks that Jenny is funny from the stories Clio tells him about her, but they have never met.
