Casting Call for a Short Film "Stay Afloat"
This is a short film about a teen boy trying to not let his feelings and thoughts catch up to him sinking him in the deep end. He doesn’t want his sister hearing the awful language thrown around his house from his parents fighting so he often comforts her, forgetting about himself. His friend noticed his shift in behavior, she always did but he won’t open up to her. We are also looking for adults, but I don’t have a website to post for that so if your a parent and interested please apply for background and then in your audition clip state that you are auditioning for the role of a parent in the film. This role will shoot sometime in August specific dates are tbd. This is a non-paid production however if I’m not paying my actors I provide for them. Food, drinks, breaks, etc. Also one thing that makes this film stick out is because it was written by a 14 year old!! You heard that right, isn’t that cool!?

6 roles
Older brother to Ruby and he cares about her very deeply. He shows very raw emotion in scenes that are very heavy so I would like to see you showing heavy emotion in the clip.
Coles younger sister. Does have somewhat emotional scenes so please show that you can show emotion in your clips.
Coles friend. She cares about him very much and wants him to open up to her but he won’t. Does show emotion and will likely be asked to do a chemistry read with our possible Coles.
Coles oblivious friend. He doesn’t realize what he’s going through. Doesn’t have too many lines but is important to the story.
A few people that hangout in Cole’s friend group. No lines.
Any age can audition yes I see an adult reading this right now, you can too!! Email me the same way as your kids.
