“NIGHT SHOOT” – We’re looking for just a small handful of people to play downtown pedestrians and/or a jogger for an overnight shoot. The estimated filming time for the day is 3pm-4am, but this doesn’t mean these are your call/wrap times – this is just an estimate of start to finish times for the crew for the entire day. You may only be needed for a shorter portion of the filming time, but we thought it best to let you know what the overall timeframe of the day is like, so you’re prepared.

COVID TEST: Weds 1/5

FILMING: Fri 1/7

PAY: $120/8 + $60 Covid test bump

“COURTROOM” – Seeking a female, any ethnicity, ages 30s+ to play a court official supervising a child. Should be a business professional type look.

COVID TEST: Tues 1/11

FILMING: Thurs 1/13

PAY: $120/8 + $60 Covid test bump + $25 fitting bump (if applicable)

“BAILIFF” – Seeking an older male, preferably late 50s+, any ethnicity, to play a courtroom bailiff. The director specifically asked if we had any background actors with a mustache that might be available, so while it’s not a deal breaker if you’re clean shaven, there would probably be preference for someone with a mustache! It’s the “look” he’d like to see for this role 

There will be a uniform fitting in advance of filming. Date is TBD but most likely will be Fri 1/7, possibly Mon 1/10.

COVID TEST:  Most likely Weds 1/5 (could change)
