"The Vineyard" is being produced under SAG's Ultra Low Budget Agreement. Compensation includes pay, meals on set, and lodging.
| Who: | Union and non-union actors accepted.
Johnny: Male, must be 18 or over but look high school age. Charismatic and outgoing, he's able to adapt to new situations extremely well. Like most red-blooded, American teenagers he has two things on his mind: girls and cars. This is a very dynamic character that serves as the most direct outlet for the entity's interaction with the family. (Partial nudity required) Renee: Female, must be 18 or over but look high school age. Naturally pretty, she's extremely confident and self-assured, while at the same time has an air of mystery about her. Has a close relationship to her family. (Partial nudity required) Mark: Male, early to mid 30s. A lenient and laid-back kind of father with a good sense of humor. Would rather spend time in the kitchen than have anything to do with the vineyard, aside from drinking the wine. (Partial nudity required) Matt: Male, early 20s. Very mature for his age, especially when suddenly faced with new responsibilities, but also has a dry, sarcastic personality that seeps through. Louis: Male, mid 40s. Has two concerns in his life; family and work. Very goal oriented and diligent, while always trying to do what's best for his children. Father DiSpirito: Male, late 20s. Very dedicated to his faith and adamant about the belief of God, but also youthful with a modern day sensibility and understanding. Joan of Arc: Female, late teens. The legendary martyr who was burned at the stake for never abandoning her beliefs. French speaking a plus. |
