Ringloom
Location: Atlanta, GA
Type: Film
Casting RINGLOOM.
Genre: Drama, Horror, Fantasy, Psychological, Surreal Horror
Synopsis: A young trainee with aspirations to become a “pilot”, a form of enhanced human, takes one last evaluation before deciding to return home, but the interview untangles as she is forced to come to terms with a traumatic incident that occurred a year prior.
SAG welcome, if you are, we can negotiate a low pay. Film credit, meals, and snacks provided. As well as life long friends and contacts. The film I think will be a great piece for any actor/actresses reel so don’t be discouraged by our small scope and budget.
Halfine
Role Type: Lead
Gender: Female
Age Range: 18-32
Ethnicity: All Ethnicities
Media required from applicants: Headshot/Photo
Role Description: lead role; all races welcome, especially looking for south asian/middle eastern/east asian but don’t be discouraged if you feel the role is right for you; (looking in age range of 18-32, anyone that can convincingly play a late teens/early 20s woman), skinny/skrawny/average, alternative (goth/emo/normcore/dyed hair/tattoos etc.) looks are welcome. In terms of gender, the role is written for a female but anyone (non-binary etc.) who feels like this role is strong for them can try out. This is a SUBTLE performance. Must be able to portray someone lost in regret, quiet desperation, and can show anxiety/dread in their performance.
Alex
Role Type: Supporting
Gender: Female
Age Range: 18-32
Ethnicity: All Ethnicities
Media required from applicants: Headshot/Photo
Role Description: Halfine’s best friend; all races welcome; (looking in age range of 18-32, anyone that can convincingly play a late teens/early 20s woman), skinny/skrawny/average. In terms of gender, the role is written for a female but anyone (non-binary, male, etc.) who feels like this role is strong for them can try out. Alex died a year prior to the beginning of the story. Actress would be challenged with playing a character who deep down loves her best friend but in the film is not the real Alex, but a corrupted manifestation. A subtle performance, must show quiet desperation, apathetic discipline, seething hatred all at different times.

Age Range: 18-36
Ethnicity: All Ethnicities
