Now casting! A non union short film called "Porch Pirates." Seeking two roles - rate: $125/10 hour day Max - age 48-60 - Male - The leader of a bad-ass duo. A strong arm. Tall and tough, but more weathered, aged, scarred, worn out. Has roughed up/killed so many people that life seems easily disposable to him. It makes him a little more messy, a little more chaotic, and a little more unhinged. He shouldn’t be doing this shit anymore, he thinks. But it doesn’t make him any ...less menacing, even more so. Russian or Armenian or Czech, but open to other ideas. Stunt/stunt coordinating experience is a plus - will be wielding a gun. LOTS OF DIALOG - Russian/Armenian/Czech/etc. accents are a plus! Cris - age 30-45 - Female - A total bad-ass, hopefully big and imposing - an MMA fighter, boxer, body builder, stunt woman. Needs to look hard, not pretty. She has definitely thrown someone through a wall. She takes a pleasure in her work as a strong arm, but gets annoyed because she knows how it ends, crushed inside her palm. Bounty hunter or criminal thug for hire. Whichever is paying that week. Maybe Russian or Armenian or Czech, but open to other ideas. Stunt/stunt coordinating experience is a plus - will be wielding a gun. LOTS OF DIALOG - Russian/Armenian/Czech/etc. accents are a plus! Project Synopsis: Two down and out musicians steal packages off porches and sell the spoils to pay for their upcoming album. When they take home the wrong package, they’re in a lot deeper than they ever expected. A gritty comedy in the style of Jackie Brown or Uncut Gems, this Elmore Leonard style yarn blends the grit of early Scorsese and the characterizations of the Coen Brothers. Project Notes: PORCH PIRATES is directed by Cutter Hodierne, a two-time Sundance award winning director best known for his debut feature film FISHING WITHOUT NETS, about Somali Pirates, the first scripted movie financed by VICE Studios.

Surprised? From Cynopsis: US consumers spend more time with TV than all other ad-supported platforms, according to preliminary results from the 2020 Media Comparisons Study from GfK in collaboration with TVB. The top medium for consumers was local broadcast TV, on-air and digital, found the study, with Adults 18+ spending 5 hours and 17 minutes with television daily; social media clocked in at 1 hour and 6 minutes. TV was also the top advertising medium influencing purchasin...g decisions 63% higher than the number of those surveyed who cited social media. Competition for consumers’ attention grows by the day, and yet television continues to stand tall as the medium with which people choose to spend most of their available time, said Steve Lanzano, TVB President-CEO. That continued dominance translates to dependable clout for advertisers across the marketing landscape. And at a time when accusations of ‘fake news’ fly from all corners of the media and social ecosystem, local TV in particular remains far and away the most trusted medium and source of information.
