Wandering Studios, Temple University’s premiere film production club, is currently casting for three upcoming short films, including the following comedy, “Unstoppables 5.” We are hosting in-person auditions this weekend, February 15 and 16, on Temple’s campus. Auditions will be in the form of short reading from scripts of the actor’s choosing, and will sometimes include additional readings from other scripts if the actor is not opposed.
Unstoppables 5
The short film is a satire about a team of high-level mercenaries that is forced to suspend operation after budget cuts.
Saturday, February 15, auditions will be hosted in the Howard Gittis Student Center, room 223, from 1 – 4 pm.
Sunday, February 16, auditions will be hosted in the Howard Gittis Student Center, room 200D, from 2 – 5 pm.
Address: Student Center South, 1755 N 13th St, Philadelphia, PA 19122
Video auditions are also allowed! Any auditions, or questions in general, can be directed to: tug57960@temple.edu. Note that these are unpaid roles that will likely be filmed in and around North Philly, so it is not recommended for those whom would have to travel afar distance.
These are fun projects with very eager and competent crews, so share this with friends, and we hope to see you there!
