[Capdist-auditions] CASTING NON-UNION ACTORS FOR A SHORT BOXING FILM [NOT PAID]

[Logan Rando]

SEEKING NON UNION TALENT FOR *"THE FIGHTER"*
*The Fighter follows a young African-American boxer named Mac, as he gears
up for the fight of his life, both in and outside the ring. We follow Mac
as he trains for the fight that could jump start his career as a
professional boxer. Two weeks prior to the fight, Mac begins having visions
of his estranged, abusive father. Mac knows he must confront his father and
clear his mind if he's to give the fight all he's got.*

*ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS FOR*:
*Pease forward your headshot, resume, and relevant reel material to
loganrando at gmail.com <loganrando at gmail.com>) Your submission materials
should be labeled with your name followed by either "headshot" or "resume"
or "reel". **Ex: logan_rando_resume.pdf*

*ROGER (65+) *| *Mac's trainer and surrogate father.*
*Roger is a grizzled old man who appears rough around the edges and speaks
bluntly and often profanely. Despite all this, Roger is incredibly kind
hearted and has known Mac since he was a little boy. The two share a very
strong bond that is built on tough love and a shared goal.*

*POPS (50+ African-American) | Mac's biological father*
*Pops is an incredibly bitter and cruel man. Consumed by his own trauma and
short comings, he spent much of Mac's childhood abusing the child
physically and emotionally. Pops is responsible for pushing Mac to take up
boxing and establish unrelenting discipline. *
***The actor cast must be able to portray Pops as 50-65 as well as 75+***

*LORENA (20-30 Latina) | Mac's long-time girlfriend*
*Lorena is the strong woman in Mac's life. She is incredibly beautiful but
has a tough, street-wise look to her. Lorena comes from a rough upbringing
with no father and an absentee mother. She raised her siblings. Lorena was
instrumental in helping Mac put his own past behind him and heal. When Mac
announces to Lorena that he's confronting his father, she grows deeply
concerned.*

*ALSO SEEKING EXTRAS IN PEAK PHYSICAL SHAPE TO PORTRAY BACKGROUND FIGHTERS
TRAINING AT THE GYM*

***Shooting in June and July of 2019** Mac is already cast*

*First shoot dates are set for June 8th and 9th at an Albany boxing gym.
These dates will require Pops and Roger but not Lorena. Lorena will be
needed for 1-2 days in June or July based on cast and crew availability.*
