Newcomer

Actor (m/d) as "Tommi" for a student one-take film

Application phase closed
Job description

Hello everyone,

We are looking for someone to play the role of "Tommi" for our graduation one-take film "Luisenglück 31"(AT) at Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts. "Tommi" is the deceased father of our ensemble film, who lies dead in a nursing bed from the beginning to the end of the film. It sounds like a simple corpse role, but it's not. Because we are shooting a one-take in which the deceased is seen again and again, is hugged, and the grief for him is the focus of the film. So it's a role for someone who can breathe very calmly and can lie still for a long time with their eyes closed without falling asleep, plus can remember moments and touches well so as not to be frightened. The running time of the movie will be about 60 minutes, possibly longer and the filming location is Münster (Westf.). We are also happy to include a provision in your contract.

Please apply directly with a photo if possible, plus a 30 sec. Video of your eyes closed and preferably not twitching.

Reserve contract

Best regards!
Team Luisenglück 31
