VIDEO SUBMISSIONS
We are accepting video auditions. Please email us a link of your performance to: info@blindriverstudios.com. In the video, please state your name and the role you are auditioning for.
ROLES & SIDES
Please select from one of four roles below; these are not the only roles available, but they represent the range of quirky characters within the film. The sides for each character can be downloaded as a PDF. The character descriptions are to help guide you, but you may be as creative as you wish. You have creative flexibility with each character and may change lines, ad-lib, and wear what you wish. Perform your character as you feel best. We encourage creativity and the “strange and unusual” during your performance.
MALE ROLES
(Please Note: We are casting for many roles in addition to the ones presented below. These roles will be cast based upon your performance given for your chosen male or female character.)
Gus Luther
Gus thinks of himself as a powerlifting, boot camp junkie, soldier of fortune. The kind of man who makes his enemies shake with fear just by the sound of his name. In Gus’s world, when he’s not taking on missions as an action hero, he’s an old school, street brawler who can settle any score with his fists and baseball bat. The reality is Gus isn’t capable of really hurting anyone and he spends more time talking at the gym than doing any form of exercise. He does have an old school vibe and does think quite highly of himself. He’s a big talker who makes laughable threats. Perhaps his best attribute is that his ego is so large, it actually makes him fearless; a beneficial characteristic when battling aliens.
Bullseye
The super-duper alien hunters need a boat driver. Who better than a man who can barely see the hand in front of his face. Bullseye wears the thickest coke bottle eyeglasses anyone has ever seen. He’s confident in his driving skills, which may be due to his slower mind. In addition to his trademark eyeglasses, he often wears a bucket hat pulled down low. Bullseye is funny without even trying.
FEMALE ROLES
(Please Note: We are casting for many roles in addition to the ones presented below. These roles will be cast based upon your performance given for your chosen male or female character.)
Jenny Nines
Jenny is the only female member of the super duper team and she is by far the toughest. She projects her tough attitude in spite of being completely blind. She is athletic and seems to have some ninja skills. She is usually dressed all in black and wears black sunglasses to match. All of this makes her white cane even more noticeable.
Madam FiFi
To a couch potato or nerd, Madam Fifi is a goddess. Her gypsy style gives her a mysterious presence. She is a colorful figure who looks like she stepped out of a cosplay convention. She likes wearing a brightly colored bandana on her head, along with a vest, black pants and tall boots. She sometimes wears ultra-blue contact lenses with a long, vibrant colored wig. She has a mature, all-knowing presence with a signature, sly grin.
