Casting Calls

Ruth Video is currently casting for the following roles. Please use the contact form to apply or receive additional information about any of these roles.

Actors and Extras for Bar Scene

We are seeking three female actors for speaking parts, two male actors with non-speaking parts, and a few extras for a short (one-minute) bar scene. This is for a five-minute contest submission, the majority of which has already been shot. Please contact us for more details.

Bar Location Needed

For the above bar scene, we are looking for a bar (possibly within a restaurant) as a location to shoot. If you manage a bar and would be willing to let us shoot for an hour or two at your location, please contact us.

Actors playing Actors

("I'm not really an actor, but I play one on T.V.") During the course of making our films, we have frequently found ourselves in rather astonishing situations. We can laugh about them now, so we have decided to put together a short comedy spoofing several of those events. We have five scenes, each of which require a female actor playing a female actor. Throughout, there will also be actors playing us, the filmmakers. Please contact us for more details and a list of parts available.

Sound Engineer

We would like to grow our core team to include a sound engineer. To date, we have done remarkably well by taking audio only on the camera, however this has frequently limited us. We would like to begin recording audio using external microphones. With our small crew, this person would typically also be the boom operator. If you are interested in joining our team, please contact us for more details.

Script Supervisor

We would like to grow our core team to include a script supervisor. It would be a great help to us to have someone keep track of the script and the shot list, as well as to prompt actors for their lines. Watching for continuity errors and taking continuity notes would also be an important job. With our small crew, this person would also operate the clapperboard (slate). If you are interested in helping with our productions, either for one day or on a regular basis, please contact us for more details.
