Filmmakers, a group of local filmmakers that have come together to make films and create a vibrant, active independent filmmaking community, are producing a short film titled AFTER.  We are currently in preproduction and have scheduled a casting call that will serve to cast the film.  We make short films, commercials, music videos, and participate in the 48hour Film challenge and like events.

To audition for a role in
AFTER, or to audition to be included in our database of actors, we ask that actors:

Synopsis:
“After” is science fiction short film that centers on the concept of trust in a world that has been forever altered by a catastrophic event. The story follows EMILY, a mother who wakes up in deserted building in Las Vegas, as she struggles to understand how and why Sin City has been deserted. DRIFTER, a survivor in his early forties, is hunting the deer that roam the streets when he hears Emily's cries.  Though the world is now a dangerous, empty place, these two will form a bond and learn to trust one another.

Character BIOS

[EMILY] [GENDER: FEMALE] [AGE: 25-35]

Before the event, Emily was a proud mother of two children, married to a construction supervisor, and involved in running and a strong social life.  Now she is a lonely, destitute woman, struggling to understand what has happened to the world, where her children are, and how to trust anyone in this new reality with which

 [DRIFTER] [GENDER: MALE] [AGE: 30-45]

Drifter is a survivor, a loner, an ancient Spartan at heart. He has honed his skills in hunting, fighting and killing, and he somehow finds the will to live after the event. He has lost someone dear to him and finds it difficult to trust anyone now. But he takes a leap of faith and begins to help Emily, hoping for some reprieve to his lonely existence.

[TOOLS] [GENDER: MALE] [AGE: 20-60]

Tools often has good intentions, and he wants recognition for what he does for his group, but he is not willing to lead and remains a follower at heart.  He knows how to survive, and running is his number one skill.  Cowardice is something dead people talk about according to him, and he has no problem seeing himself alive if it means his friends must die.

[BOOTS] [GENDER: MALE] [AGE: 20-60]

Boots doesn't take orders from many people, least of all, those he feels are subordinate to him.  He uses his physical prowess to intimidate those around him into letting him have his way, and he is used to playing the leader, though he is inept in most things he attempts.  His most prized possession are his boots, which he has stolen from countless places and people.

[JAMES] [GENDER: MALE] [AGE: 8-10]

James is Emily's only male child.  He is a normal kid who loves playing at war and annoying his sister, Sylvia.

[SYLVIA] [GENDER: FEMALE] [AGE: 11-13]

Sylvia is a typical teenage girl, more interested in what her Vine, Snapchat and Twitter have to offer than any real person.  Her brother, James, is often the bane of her existence and she often don't see why her mother is so mean.

How To Get To InNEVation:

This is in an office park complex, just off the I-215 at Decatur on the south side of the valley. Exit at Decatur and head south, turn RIGHT onto Badura, then RIGHT onto Edmond Street. Turn left into the office park complex with TWO buildings. It is the building at the west end of the lot. Enter through the front doors and go up to the third floor. Look for the DSLR Filmmakers sign in the lobby that will direct you to the green room for sign in.

The side of the building that you can see going west on the 215 says SWITCH in red and black letters, but the buildings themselves only have the address on the side you can see from the lot.
