Castings for Wedding Dress

Application criteria: Male / 16-70 from Greater London, United Kingdom

Payment details: Expenses and food

Description: Short film for Size 9 Productions (Ray Winstone is one of the partners and they are relatively new but exciting) http://size9productions.co.uk/projects/index.htm

This project needs featured extras of all different shapes and sizes. However, these roles are unpaid, I am really sorry to say so please don't take offence but it is a low budget film. Despite the names attached it is a directorial debut. However, if you are a student or inexperienced but talented actor interested in working on a funny and very sweet film, please read on. Or maybe if you would like to meet a new director and get in with a budding production company then this could be the project for you.
The film is called Wedding Dress and stars Connie Fisher (How do you solve a Problem Like Maria?) and Dominic Cooper (The Duchess, Mamma Mia) We need:

Japanese Tourists
Two shoppers
Mother with baby
Young Man (who needs to look attracted to our leading lady)
Old couple
Photographer
Tour Guide
Living Statue
5 gorgeous girls
Policemen x 2

And people to be part of a crowd watching an arrest.

These roles will require some direction so some are a bit more interesting than just standing around- so could be fruitful if you haven't had much experience. If you have friends who might be interested, let me know and maybe they could audition too.

This is shooting 22/23 and 24 of September in London but we would only need you for one of those days. The casting is happening this Friday 5th September in London. If successful we would contact you next week and let you know what day you will be needed.

So- if you think you could play one of those roles and are available on those dates please email elizabeth.harrison@partizan.com   with photos and contact details ASAP and I will make sure Josh gets them. I can also send you Size 9 information to help you make your decision.

INTERNATIONAL TALK LIKE A PIRATE DAY.. JIM LAD

It's International Talk Like a Pirate Day

Have you been doing it? There's still time to call someone and do your Capt Jack Sparrow impression. You never know you could be called to a casting to play a pirate.  I have.

If you're stuck for what to say.... try:
From Lt. Robert Maynards report of Blackbeard at the Battle of Ocracoke
He styl'd us 'young puppies' and shouted 'May the Devil take my soul if I ever gives quarter or asks it of ye!'
Or..
"Damn ye, yellow-bellied sapsuckers, I'm a better man than all of ye milksops put together"
The only written records recovered from Blackbeard's ship, the Adventure, after his death ran as follows:

Such a day, rum all out- Our company somewhat sober- A damned confusion amongst us !- Rogues a-plotting - Great talk of separation- so I looked sharp for a prize- Such a day found one with a great deal of liquor on board, so kept the company hot, damned hot, then things went well again.

Treasure Island
One of the most influential books on popular notions of pirate speech was Treasure Island, a novel by Robert Louis Stevenson, from which sample quotes include:

"Bring me one noggin of rum now, won't you, matey."
"Avast, there!"
"Dead men don't bite."
"Shiver my timbers!" (often pronounced as "Shiver me timbers!")
"Fifteen men on a dead man's chest — Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!"
