I have been blessed with a remarkably smooth run so far this year, but that should be the case, considering how early I started working on this project. One of my defining qualities would be my gregarious personality and enthusiasm. I started planning in June of last year, but left several casting issues for 2010. I figured that would be a good time to tackle the last aspects of the Project.
I garnered commitments from Will Shuford, who has worked on several Mad Ones Films projects, and from Tom Barker, who I find to be the best actor in Greensboro. With my "guys in line," I knew I could focus on finding female talent. I had spoken with two dear friends over the last few months about helping me with the 48. These two ladies, Julie Welch and Jen Bowman are both stunning ladies with great personalities. They will be great additions to our team, but I have never seen them ACT before. I know they can pull off "normal" roles, but what happens if we end up shooting an "exorcism" scene? I begin looking for a couple of aces to have up my sleeve...
A young lady named Lilly Nelson directed me in a short play last fall, and after a bit of research on her part, has agreed to be in my 48 this year. Another one of my directors, Rachel Downey, wants to be in my 48, but claims to be a true Director type, more than an Actress...
And then... There's my Girlfriend. An original Mad One. Thankfully, she will be Patient...
So, I now have about 5 actresses...
Film de Femme anyone?
