You need a workers permit

Anyone thats not at least 16 yrs of age needs a workers permit, in order to obtain one you need a letter of intent from the employer, a doctors note indicating your healthy enough to work, last you need to take all that along with your birth certificate to your local high school and fill out some paper work and you will then receive it.

Just curious, is any of the main roles for the girls casted yet? Although I’m an unknown actress, I do have a headshot and resume and have took acting lessons, and it would be totally awesomee to audition for this movie =] If there are no roles left, I totally understand. Thanks! =]

Re-question

Not sure if every thing is been casted for girls, I doubt it, but if you don’t have an agent/agency to send you on an audition, chances are very slim that you will be able too.

Hear anything? Not yet.

Basically they would let you know about a few days prior to the scene being shot if they selected you for it, some times less. They’ll search for certain looks for what ever the scene is that they will be shooting a couple of days prior.Thats the way it usually goes. So if you don’t hear anything right away,I wouldn’t too be alarmed.

Casting

My friend applied through Jon Kinnas: atmospherecastingchicago.com
He just got handpicked by Michael Bay to be either a featured extra or a role, so apply with Jon Kinnas, that would be your best bet!!!

I GOT A RESPONSE TO BE AN EXTRA

I sent my information in about 2 weeks ago and then on Wednesday I got a call from Atmosphere Casting saying they got my email and to call them back with my availability for a week in May. I called, gave it to them, and then was told that the director will look to see what scenes are filming that coincide with my availability and where/if I fit in. They said they will contact me again within a week or two.

THEATER, TV, DVD & BLU-RAY REVIEWS

  • Near Dark

    CHICAGO – It’s funny the way that the Blu-Ray market has developed in that success of a new title can often bring an old one to the HD format more quickly than it otherwise would get there. In the case of the great “Near Dark,” it’s the success of two films, one that shares a theme (“The Twilight Saga: New Moon”) and one that shares director Kathryn Bigelow (“The Hurt Locker”). Whatever the reason, don’t fail to include arguably the best vampire movie ever made in your collection.

  • Lost

    CHICAGO – The sixth and final season of the J.J. Abrams hit television series “Lost” will premiere with a special all-night event on Tuesday, February 2nd, 2009. The recap special will start at 7pm CST followed by the highly anticipated sixth season two-hour premiere at 8pm CST on ABC.
