Actress (f/d) as "Agatha Wetherby" for a comedic student film

We are looking for actors for our comedy short film "The Film that went wrong: Murder at Wetherby Manor" (working title). A chaotic, self-deprecating murder-mystery in which everything goes wrong.

"The Film that goes wrong" is a comedy short film that pokes fun at movie making itself. Each character is played by an actor who is deliberately bad, exaggerated or simply embarrassing. The punchline: everything that happens goes spectacularly wrong; from forgotten lines to acting exaggerations to physical mishaps. The film thrives on the actors playing their roles and their own "acting foibles" with humor and creativity.

You slip into the role of a stereotypical murder-mystery character and at the same time into the skin of an actor who messes up the role spectacularly. How you go about it

is up to you: Some ideas are already noted in the script, but there is still room for your own ideas. The main thing is that it's funny and exaggerated!

How to apply:

• Shoot a short video (max. 2 minutes) with your interpretation of the role (incl. "acting mishaps", see role description).

• Include your name, height, place of residence and the desired role.

• Submit the video here by Friday, May 15

• Applications WITHOUT VIDEO CANNOT BE CONSIDERED

The shoot is expected to take place at the beginning of June. A filming location is currently being determined, more information on this as soon as possible. The film will be shot and filmed in English.

Agatha Wetherby - the victim

Stereotype:

The old, rich woman lying in the drawing room after her murder.

Actor ideas:

* Moves in the background of the scene.

* Must sneeze when someone gets too close to her face.

* Opens her eyes and then realizes she's in the shot.

* Lies there differently in each shot

Monologue (omitted):

Show us how you as "dead" Agatha unintentionally steal the scene: by minimal but noticeable twitching, eye rolling or "accidentally" making noise.
