Welcome to the community, you will find this new CASA interface has really made it possible for the film population in Denver and surrounding to have a valuable and productive web, more so than ever before.

Have fun!

Welcome Marty. Make yourself at home and let us know if you have any questions.

Nice Picture! =)

Hey Marty,
Hope you are doing well. Lets catch up sometime soon.

Marty,
Announding auditions for Papercat Films’ indie short "Skeletons", directed by Kristine Hipps
“Skeletons” is a story about family, devotion, love, art, crime, guilt, bad habits, and the way we cling to our kin like anchors in the ocean of our crazy lives. The film opens at a memorial service for the character of Alex, and is interspersed with flashbacks and snippets of home videos taken over the years.

AUDITIONS: Wednesday October 14th, 7pm – 9pm at the John Hand Theater, Room 206.

SHOOT DATES: Sunday October 25th, noon to 4pm, and Tuesday October 27th 4pm – 10pm.
Gary Otte will act as DP on the project, which will be shot on Hi-Def DV.
*There will also be a casual, partly-improvised shoot for a “home video” of a Cain family Christmas party to be scheduled in November. The date of this shoot is more flexible since we’ll be filming on a mini-DV camcorder, and can be scheduled around cast members’ conflicts.

Location: The home of Sara and Jeremiah Michael, 5785 S. Lakeview St. in Littleton, 80120

Rehearsal Dates: I am willing to work around actors’ schedules, but the days I have set aside for rehearsals are Sun Oct 18th thru Thurs Oct 22nd, so all actors must have some availability within that time frame.
Info/Conflict sheets will be supplied at auditions.

CHARACTERS:

Holly: 30’s, an artist, single, independent, outspoken and fiercely protective of her siblings.
Tom: brother to Holly and Jill, late 20s, a writer for a hip men’s magazine, a quick-witted cad with a big heart.
Jill: sister to Holly and Tom, 30s, strong in her faith in God, a bit emotionally repressed but extremely kind, intelligent and giving - would give you the shirt off her back, with a small sermon tucked into the pocket.
Alex: Her husband, 40s, a chronic out-of-work alcoholic who has allowed hopelessness to take over, often taking it out on Jill. Killed in a drunk-driving accident, he is presented in the “home videos” section of the film only.
Jean: Their mother, 50s-late 60s, also strong in her faith, kind and loving, a rock to her family
Sam: Their father, 60s – 70s, handsome, with a small-time criminal past and an infectious charm that hides a sociopathic nature
Wanda: Their cousin, 20s, funky, has no reservations about saying the word “dildo” at a memorial service.
Mark: Her boyfriend, 20s-30s
Katy: Alex’s sister, 30s, a small-town woman, remorseful about not being there enough for her brother, feels guilt over his death.
Donna: Alex’s mother, 60s – 70s, a tired woman, stunned and confused over her son’s death.
Friends and Family: Guests at Alex’s memorial service, as well as Christmas party guests in the “home video” portion of the film.

Hi Marty
I met you at Hylars seminar a couple of weeks ago. You were the speed typer I remember. I have a project that I am trying to get finished up so that I can get on with the next phase. I was wondering since you use a software program 1st draft and are comfortable with it If you would be interested in updating a script for me? I would pay you of course. I just am not a strong form typest and want to get typed pages onto my computer so I can edit project. Would you be interested?

Hello, I'm a student filmmaker looking for talented middle-aged men and women for a short comedy. It'll be an easy quick shoot full of laughs with an experienced crew. Good for demo reels and resume's. We're shooting Nov 13th, 14th, and 15th so I need to find some good cast members as soon as possible. Please message me if you're interested or have more questions. Thank you! :-)

Hello Marty! I am writing you because we are auditioning for a short film now. It is a short, silent, magical realism film and we need an actress to play the part of a mysterious old woman. Of course, you would be made up quite a bit in order to look the part, but your coloring is what I am looking for. If you are interested in an audition, they are this Saturday at five. Please email or call. shifra.blumenthal@gmail.com or 404 386 4197. The address of the studio is 8031 marshall circle arvada co 80003 thanks a lot!

Hi Marty,
