Name of project or audition:

Primary location of project Seattle, WA
Project Begins Aug 14, 2012

Project Description:
Feature film "Backyard Man" is looking for some extras and small speaking roles to be filled.

The movie stars Michael Beach (The Abyss, Third Watch, Sons Of Anarchy, Red Dawn 2012) and a number of other well known actors and actresses and centers around a metal scrapper who befriends a teenage runaway.

Production is set for August 14-28 and the roles we need filled are spread out across that schedule. This project is ultra low budget, everybody is working for little or nothing and money is spread thin as-is, so we cannot offer pay for these roles. Actors on set for more than 4 hours will get a meal and everybody involved will be invited to the cast and crew screening.

While we are a partial SAG production, we cannot afford to pay SAG extras, so please only submit for consideration if you are non-union.
