Short Film Casting Call: “The Way the Light Changes”

Job Description
Project Casting is seeking non-union actors for a paid, self-funded short film in North Florida (Taylor County/Big Bend area).

  • Stay consistent across takes with controlled, natural performance choices

  • Maintain professionalism on set during a micro-budget production

Requirements

  • Non-union talent

  • Ability to deliver grounded, natural performances with minimal exposition

  • Strong control over expressiveness (no melodrama or overplaying)

  • Comfortable with quiet scenes, subtext, and ethical/emotional conflict

  • Must be able to work as a local hire in North Florida (Taylor County/Big Bend area)

  • Roles available:

    • Daniel (Male, 40–55) — Lead

    • Evelyn (Female, 20–30) — Supporting Lead

    • Michael (Male, 20–30) — Supporting
