******************************

I am a Newschool film director, and I am seeking actors for a project that I plan on submitting to festivals.

The film is titled "Perversion in Thirds," and it is a short, experimental film exploring themes of fetishism, taboo, and sexuality. It is experimental in nature, and the focus of the film relies on the tension of space and time against the themes themselves, rather than a traditional narrative arc, resolution (it doesn't have one). The "story" inter-cuts between three hotel rooms at the same time.

The actors must be comfortable with improvisation, as the script relies heavily on the actor's input and energy.

I am look for the follow to cast:
1. Business Woman (late 20s, early 30s)
An attractive, brunette business woman who will be blindfolding herself in a hotel room.

2. Prostitute (early 20s, or looks very young)
A young, blonde "escort" who meets a client at the hotel. She is tough, and doesn't let anyone take advantage of her.

3. Old Man (late 40s-mid 60s,)
An older, quirky man who is at first awkward and nervous about his interaction with an escort, but then begins to degrade her. Eventually, he is left alone in the room to himself.

4. Male Art Student (Early-Mid 20s)
An attractive art student who sets up a camera and tripod, and
and then records himself. He proceeds to hurt himself with various objects, and expresses sexual excitement within this pursuit.

Please submit a headshot and resume for consideration.
E:mail Perversioninthirds@gmail.com

Auditions are being scheduled for the up-coming week.

The shoot should last roughly 4 hours. Food will be provided, but there is no pay for the job.

Jagger
Your classes are easily the most fun and the most worthwhile acting lessons
I've ever taken! The price of course is phenomenal - but really irrelevant.
Above all else, the classes are both fun and valuable- a powerful
combination! Your unbelievable level of energy- coupled with your perceptive and
valuable observations and constructive feedback- tough, necessary but also
nurturing- contribute to an atmosphere of learning which just blows away the
competition. Other acting classes I've taken were relatively boring, usually with
just a minimum time to perform - 5 minutes in a 3 hour class? - and were long on
theory, short on execution. (Sometimes there was ALL theory and virtually
little time devoted to actually acting.) In your classes we roll up our
sleeves and get right to work learning how to become a character and tell the
story, there is a maximum time for everyone to perform, which is great!- and when
it's time to watch others, your feedback and guidance regarding their
performances is so on-the -money (I think you're a f'n genius!) well, watching the
other class members work on a scene and then perform has become a tremendously
valuable - and very enjoyable learning experience.

Hey Jagger,
Just wanted to let you know how much this class meant to me. I have had a
fear of performing live since my last time on stage but your writing, direction
and genius knowledge of performance has given me a second wind. The entire
experience was awesome. You challenged me to play characters outside my
comfort zone and I thank you for it. Your ability to pull praise worthy performance
out of an actors strengths and weakness's is truly brilliant. You are an
awesome teacher and a comedic phenom. I am proud to have been able to work with
you and I hope to one day get to work with you again. I'll end this by saying
thank you for all I have learned.
