CASTING CALL FOR SHORT (20-30 min) HORROR FILM - "SNUFF" (with funding from Gonville and Caius’ Shadwell Society)

Looking for 3 actors (2 female + 1 male), 3 (male) extras, and also ideally a sound operator - or any extra hands from anyone interested!

About a student actor slowly coming to the unpleasant realisation that she’s been cast as the lead in an (intended) snuff film. But really about gazes/perspective and narrative control, gendered power dynamics and violation, and "authenticity" in making films (but hopefully in, like, a fun and not-pretentious way). Should also be engagingly stylised, and funny enough – for the most part. For the other part should be unsettling in the way that only grainy old found-footage can be.

Looking for 3 actors (2 female + 1 male), 3 (male) extras, and also ideally a sound operator - or any extra hands from anyone interested!

Also has a little budget of £125 (funding from Gonville and Caius’ Shadwell Society), to cover costs of props etc., which is pretty great to have for a student film!
