avroair Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I am developing a new cache which will involve a home-made movie, casting call. Casting call is for two Men in Black style characters, a heroine and an an alien? Any volunteers? Involves: * no pay * no benefits * nighttime shooting on my digital camera * you don't have to know how to act * no experience * belief in UFO's is preferred! * shot in an exotic location in Northern NJ B) Quote Link to comment
+MissJenn Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 * shot in an exotic location in Northern NJ Makes me think of View Askew! Quote Link to comment
+Team DEMP Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 (edited) Does it involve nudity, or was that what you meant with your "No Experience" comment? For a Blues Brothers theme I'd suggest Hart and Brian. As for Men in Black... Quoddy could be Tommy Lee Jones. Not sure who (not that I met too many caching folks) would make a good Will Smith - maybe Serg?. Edited May 24, 2004 by Team DEMP Quote Link to comment
avroair Posted May 25, 2004 Author Share Posted May 25, 2004 Does it involve nudity I would rather not think about that... all I want is a scene acted out, no scripts... and NO TeamDEMP you don't need to have an accent!!! Quote Link to comment
+lostinjersey Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 i'd think about it. keep me in mind Quote Link to comment
+Team DEMP Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 (edited) Well if you don't need an accent, though I have a good Bergen County NJ one, I'll help you out if I'm available when you need someone. Edit: I don't have a MIB type suit though. If you need that, I'm not your man. Edited May 25, 2004 by Team DEMP Quote Link to comment

+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Well I've acted stupid and that's the only experience I've had so far. Quote Link to comment
+JMBella Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 I'm in. Just let me know when and where. I even have very little experience. I even have access to post production equipment! Quote Link to comment
+Riddlers Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 How about a free flight to the site for filming? If so count me in. Quote Link to comment
+BMSquared Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 If needed, my services are available. Ask and you shall receive. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Would it involve dressing in a woodchuck costume? If so I'm in! Quote Link to comment
+Team DEMP Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Would it involve dressing in a woodchuck costume? If so I'm in! For only $799, this could be yours: http://www.frankbeecostume.com/woodchuck.html though I think it might blow the production budget. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 For only $799, this could be yours: http://www.frankbeecostume.com/woodchuck.html though I think it might blow the production budget. Does it come in XXL? Quote Link to comment
+Team DEMP Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Does it come in XXL? I would think it only comes in XXL, since any other size would likely cause you to get picked on by the other woodchucks. It does come with an attached tail and hard head. If you already have a hard head, I guess this is extra protection for when you are chucking wood. Quote Link to comment
+JMBella Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 I'm sure you can rent that costume as well. We made a short film many years ago and occasionally we had someone run through the background in a big bird costume. It made no sense but it was hysterical. Quote Link to comment
+SherwoodForest Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 ah, a future entry for the Columbus Day Geocaching Film Festival? Quote Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 (edited) I don't know about a woodchuck costume....but I do dress up on occassion... see attached still from my "Born to Be Wild on Christmas Eve" movie cameo. Ok....you can stop laughing now.... Edited May 26, 2004 by HartClimbs Quote Link to comment
avroair Posted May 26, 2004 Author Share Posted May 26, 2004 I am not sure what is worse, HartClimbs as Santa or the fact he is wearing that ridiculous suit in the rain! Quote Link to comment
+SERG312 Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 (edited) Not sure who (not that I met too many caching folks) would make a good Will Smith - maybe Serg? Funny people tell me I look like him all the time. yes I'm kidding Ok....you can stop laughing now.... are those santa capri pants or just standard santa issue shorts.

+JMBella Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 (edited) So who are the cast of characters? I have some suggestions: Mitch:Mid 40s. The overly excited ADHD guy. He refers to the fact that he's a security guard in a home owners association as being "On the Job". Seems to sweat profusely even in the winter. Has been caching for less than a year and has about 500 finds. Kevin: Late 30s. He's the guy that keeps getting banned from the forums for being an a**. He think he's smarter than everyone else and that everyone is entitled to his opinion. Has been caching since early 2001 and has over 1000 finds. Tyler: The likable preppy in his mid 20's. Rarely goes caching without his fiancé of 3 years. He wants to finish college before they get married and He keeps changing majors. Shows up to every cache event and is liked by the whole community, except of course Kevin, Kevin doesn't like anyone but himself. Has been caching for just over a year and is very happy with his 100 or so finds. Kelly: Tyler's fiancé. She's 23 and has been planning her wedding to Tyler for 3 years. She's a pre-med student, very cool and gets along with everyone. Except of course Kevin, nobody gets along with Kevin. She's been caching for just under a year and never goes without Tyler. BrianSnat: Himself. Anyone else have suggestion? When I think of more I'll post 'em. *All the characters or fictitious and any likeness to anyone is purely coincidental.

+Riddlers Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 Well, if it is an adult film you could alway have the nudecacher run through the scene. Quote Link to comment
+JMBella Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 You know... I just read the original post again and realized my last post is completely useless to this discussion. Thanks for playing. Quote Link to comment
avroair Posted May 30, 2004 Author Share Posted May 30, 2004 realized my last post is completely useless to this discussion. Thanks for playing I think that goes for 90% of the posts in this thread... All I was looking for was a couple of volunteers to goof around on camera and act out something from a cross between Men In Black and X-Files... oh yeah and I need a person with an alien head... natural or otherwise.

+Team DEMP Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 You should bring your camera to the Night Sweats 2 event. I'm sure you'll get footage you can use. Is there a scene in your movie where you need a drunken and disorderly crowd? Quote Link to comment
+JandM Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 sounds like fun! count me in. Quote Link to comment
