Auditions in Arlington Texas for Student Film “Glassfire”. Auditions to be held this weekend.
Location: Arlington, TX
Type: Student Films
“Glassfire”
A calm evening of glass work is disrupted when a hidden stalker jumps a lone father and son in their
glassblowing studio; a terrifying moment that forces the father to face the actions of his past.
ATTACKER (40s): Caucasian. Furious, intimidating, and explosive. A complex between dark anger and longing hope. Whether it’s his bipolar tendencies or emotional turmoil, this character comes across as being marginally insane. Constantly alternates between enraged screaming and sad whispering.
Looks homeless. Scraggly facial hair and long hair is a plus!
FATHER (40s): Caucasian. Straight forward and direct. Gives off the look of a nice gentleman, if a little high class and formal. Though terrified and threatened feeling on the inside, this man clearly knows how to manipulate a conversation to get what he wants. He legitimately cares about his son, but little else other than that.
Looks neat and tidy.
SON (17-23): Caucasian. Quiet and obedient. Slow moving and contemplative. Fit with a runner’s build. The inner conflict in this character’s head makes him a relatable source for the viewer to connect to. Must be very believably shaken up by everything happening. Tears are a plus.
Looks can vary.
***This film will be shot in a hazardous location with extremely high temperature equipment and melted glass. Physical agility and ability to do basic stunts is absolutely crucial. Strong emotional acting and facial expressions are needed.***
