The JAX Company Film Production Group LLC announces the official casting of their new short film "5IVE." It is a ten minute low budget short in the tradition of twilight zone style of mysteries. It will have minimal dialogue and tell 90% of the story through action. It will also be shot in black & white with an eye on a film noir feel.
As with all of our shorts, they are made with an eye on entering film festivals and raising the awareness of our talented cast and crew, as well building IMDB credits.
At this time I am only taking submissions by email, but will have a mandatory local casting in the Atlanta area in August. Projected shoot dates, mostly in northern Cobb County, would be the weekend of August 26-28th with September 9-11th as a backup date if needed for any reason. If these dates are no good for you then please don't audition.
