Casting Call - Day 1


It's day one of auditions. We all met up at our usual classroom at 6:10pm, and came up with a game plan. Our room we originally reserved was too noisy because it was right next to WICB, so Danielle took out Park rm. 279. We took up all the equipment to film the auditions, and Charlie took on the task of putting up signs on the room downstairs to let people know we have switched rooms. We set up the camera and tripod while listening to Polka Radio on Pandora. After about ten minutes of that, we switched to Tuesday's Gone Radio, while we were waiting for the first person to audition. In the beginning it was not looking very well, at 7:10pm we still hadn't seen one person audition. At 7:40 we finally had a girl show up, but she decided to come tomorrow instead of auditioning today. The wait continues. Finally, Sky came to audition. I have worked with him before when he played a role on the show I produced last semester, and based on his reading, he makes a great candidate for the part of Reed.


After Sky, Canon, a girl, Ava, and another guy, Brandon, came to audition. They were all also very good, and are definitely potential cast members. As of now our whole class agrees that Sky makes a great writer, Canon makes a great David, Ava would work well as Corey, and Brandon makes a perfect Reed. Overall, today went well and even though the beginning started off slow, we have people to work with! We are all hopeful to have more people come to audition tomorrow, but if we at least get the same amount of people as today we will be all set.
