The Corpse Wore White is a low budget, 10 minute HDV drama with a comedic twist to be shot in London later this summer by writer/director Mike Hallett and 1st AD Warren Chung. The film is an ensemble piece (none of the characters has more than 5 minutes of screen time) but there will be some payment in addition to expenses for the key roles.
Major roles (low paid + expenses)
Tina Potts (female, about 30). Caucasian, medium build. Needs to have a wounded and/or vulnerable air and the ability to cry on cue.
Michael Bernadino (male, about 30). Caucasian, medium build. Cool and suave with a hint of the ****. Combat training a bonus but not essential.
Amy Jones (female, about 30). Non-Caucasian, light or medium build. (Will consider Afro-Caribbean, Indian, Asian, etc. The character’s name will be changed to reflect the chosen actress’ ethnicity.) A bubbly and enthusiastic type but capable of being devious.
Luigi Bernadino (male, 50+). Caucasian. Any build considered. Dying from emphysema so needs to cough regularly. Needs to speak with an Italian accent, as if English were his second language.
Minor roles (unpaid unless otherwise stated + expenses)
Sarah Potts (female, 50+). Caucasian. Any build considered. Needs to break down/cry on cue. This is a small but important role for which there will be some payment.
Frank Bernadino (male, 30-40). Caucasian, medium to heavy build. Has a thuggish streak. Combat training a bonus but not essential.
Paul Bernadino (male, 20-30). Caucasian, light or medium build. A sneaky little rat.
Caleb McLaughlan (male, about 30). Light-skinned, light build. (Not necessarily Caucasian.) Somewhat weak and indecisive but has a heart of gold.
Funeral director (male or female, 30+). Anything considered, willing to cast against the stereotype. Only two lines of dialogue.
Reggie Potts (male, 50+). Non-speaking part.
Marriage celebrant (male or female, 30+). Anything considered, non-speaking part.
Extras (unpaid, food & drinks provided)
