Casting Call for Dark Comedy short film

Hello!

We are a close-knit group of friends looking to cast talented individuals for our 18-20 minute microbudget DARK COMEDY flick targeted for the Viewster Online Film Festival (VOFF). Sadly, we're poor folk and we do not have the funds to compensate financially; however, we have scraped and scrounged enough to provide scrumptious meals, and glorious 4k RED footage for your reel. We will also be pursuing IMDB credit for all cast and crew so booyah! Extensive and/or professional experience is not required but dependability and the capacity to follow directions is (because it sucks when a person is late and it's hot outside and everyone has to wait and... jeez.)

Shooting dates will be scheduled between February 7-16 and specific dates will be scheduled based on cast and crew availability.
NOTE: Most supporting characters should only require one shoot day.

***** Without further ado, here is the casting info:
