I am contacting you on behalf of a new project we are currently casting.

We are currently working with a major broadcast network on a new documentary series that will focus on the professional and personal lives of the talented young artists who are following their talent and passion in New York City.

We are looking for extraordinarily talented musicians, actors, dancers and singers at every level of their careers, who are between the ages of 18 to 26 to participate in this new series.

Since Hofstra has the reputation for teaching the most talented artists, I was hoping you would pass on this opportunity to your current and past students to see if they would be interested in learning more about this project.

For those students who are interested, they should email me 2 recent photos of themselves, their contact information and a brief description about their talents and the journey that has taken them to where they are now.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via email karenr©vpetalent•com

Best,

Karen Rocco

I just finished up a year-long gig as an Associate Producer on the second season of WORLD OF JENKS for MTV. It’s a legit docu-series that follows inspiring young people going through really tough situations. It’s definitely a unique program for MTV and one that I’m proud of.

Now I’m an AP on a new hidden-camera prank show for MTV and I thought I’d reach out to you and the Hofstra Drama Department with info about our casting process. We’ll be filming in the NYC area starting in a week and continuing through July. I figured your students might be pumped to prank each other, right?! We need people to secretly nominate and help us set up their friends, and the person they prank will win at least $100. I think it’s a great way for students who will be around for the summer to have some fun and make some easy money.

The link below has the same info posted on the MTV website and anyone can submit to pranksomeone©magilla•tv.

We’re also looking for background actors and some small speaking improv roles here and there, so students can also send in headshots, resumes and availability.

Independent Feature Film to be shot in Lindenhurst, NY.  We are looking for non-union actors that are 18 and older.  There is no pay but a copy of the film will be provided.  

A brief description of “Bounty”:

It’s a routine collar for the stoic and silent bounty hunter, until an assassin’s bullet pierces the air of complacency.  So begins an action packed adventure, complete with chases, fight scenes and good old fashioned detective work.  The Bounty Hunter fights both criminals and law enforcement as he follows his own lonesome code in pursuit of his personal brand of justice.

Character breakdowns:

BH – A bounty hunter with a black and white moral code. Martial Arts experience a plus.  Male.  Early 20s.
STC – A small time criminal who is being hunted.  Male.  Early 20s.
A – An assassin hired to kill STC.  Male.  Early 20s.
Sergeant – Police sergeant working at the station.  Male. 30s – 60s

Stage Manager:

Need a Stage Manager for upcoming production of a new play, AMELIA. This production was a great success in Washington, DC, Editors Pick – The Washington Post, etc. AMELIA is an epic Civil War story of one woman’s search for her husband across the battlefields of America and it culminates at the gates of the notorious Andersonville prison camp. We will be performing at Fort Jay on Governors Island, a former Civil War prison camp. A great job for someone looking to build their resume. This will be the New York premiere. Tech week during the day M-Fr at least four hours a day (somewhat flexible hours) starting May 21. The run is from May 26-June 17. First weekend, just Sat and Sun, then Th-Sun, all shows at 3pm. So for the run of the show, the time commitment will be from 1pm-5pm on show days. Please send a resume. Experience with Qlab 2.x a plus. Please send resume and please include if you have a mac laptop that runs Qlab. Equity Showcase contract. No pay. Performances are free to the public.

There is no pay involved as we are presenting this to the public for free. Performances are free as part of a very complex and long negotiation with the National Park Service to use this historic Civil War fort and former prison camp.

Associate Producer:

Depending on reliability and competence, a wide range of duties is involved. Including assisting with press, supervising house management and various other production tasks. This producer has a great track record of fostering a real learning opportunity for associates. If the associate is responsible, diligent and reliable, they can count on this producer in the future as an ally/mentor in the business.
AMELIA is an epic Civil War tale of one woman’s search for her husband across the battlefields of America. The story culminates at the gates of the notorious Andersonville prison camp. Performances will be at Fort Jay on Governors Island, a former Civil War prison camp.

The story pivots on a little-known piece of history that there were somewhere between 400-500 women that masqueraded as men and fought in the Civil War.

Thanks so much for your time and attention,

Alex Webb
