DukeTrikFliks Productions is planning to launch a new webseries, “Zombie Fairytale Theatre” coming this year, and would like to invite anyone with an interest in the Northern Indiana area (or farther, if you're willing to travel) to participate.
The premise is simple – what would our fairytales from childhood be like, had they been invaded by zombies?
We have a plan for a year-long series of 2 to 3 minute short web features, involving stories we've all heard time and again; Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel, Hanzel & Gretel, etc. Only instead of 'Happily Ever After', their endings are more “zombie-fied”. (And to tell you how would be wasting the surprise.)
We're going to be shooting the first episode “Snow White” by the end of this summer, to put with a production package idea on the KickStarter(C) website, in order to raise funding, but first we need a production team in order to raise funding for. From there, we'll produce up to 12 separate episodes, alternating an episode with fun, behind-the-scenes series from our shoots, and including and encouraging audience participation with interactive content.
While we hope to be picked up by one of the larger internet series carriers, if that is not to be, this will only be a year-long venture, but one we want to make an exciting, enriching, and broadening experience for everyone involved.
Here's the team we're looking for:
COSTUME DESIGNER
LOCATION SCOUT/MANAGER
PRODUCTION DESIGNER
ON-SITE SOUND TECHNICIAN
EDITOR
WEB DESIGNER
CATERER
PRODUCTION ASSISTANTS
PRODUCTION EQUIPMENT (cameras – HD, dolly and track, crane, steady cam rig)
CASTING DIRECTOR
We are not planning on holding auditions. The parts are minimalist and all we will require are headshots and resumes from actors, who will then be invited to meet with creator and executive producer Tara Eary for a sit-down interview.
Also, while we would like to pay all positions, that is just not possible with a small production like this, but some avenues will be open to payment – that's just how it is. That being said, this will be discussed on an individual by individual basis, and payment will be per episode completed.
And finally : the director is looking for people who are interested in getting into a 'working relationship' with a project. Those who are wanting to and willing to work on a multi-episode arch and enjoy the idea of developing a series, as opposed to a one-off participation setting.
