EDIT: I’m aware there has been some email failures when applying to this but if we don’t have the correct email there’s nothing else I can do I’m afraid!

Pure Film is co-producing a short film and are currently casting teenagers for the project. Although a small production it is the perfect type of script for aspiring actors who need film experience and good matieral to add to their showreels!

Pure Film is co producing the brilliant “Too Hard To Say” it’s a short film about a story very rarely touch upon…abortion…its harrowing, truthful and a brilliant script.. Attached already is Jason Maza (Shifty, Fish Tank) and Natasha Sparkes (The Tapes). Casting will take place monday the 26th April in London.

You must be able to comfortable play 18 so please do not apply otherwise. We are casting for the following…

Scott, 17, street-wise a bit of a player, DJs in a club, good with the ladies, got something to prove.
Shaz, 17 going on 35, street-smart, pretty, but with hard-ass attitude, takes no prisoners, focused on career and going up in the world, doesn’t take any crap.
Candice, 17, fun loving, doesn’t think about consequences, lives for the moment, sexually confident and liberated young woman.
Kayley, 17, gossip queen, loves knowing everyone’s business, always up for a giggle, superficial, but sweet with it, a bit naive.

Please send your CV’s to info@purefilmproductions.com or jason@purefilmproduction.com.

Never turn an audition down because you never know what great people you could work with, what things you’ll learn or what you could have gone on to do!

“You must be able to comfortable play 18 so please do not apply otherwise. We are casting for the following…” I’m not quite sure what this means, does it mean you must be able to play an 18 year old? Because the characters are 17…or it will be an ‘18′ certificate? Bit confused.

Hi Olivia.

I have sent my CV and headshot to both emails but they just got sent back to me the next day on a failure notice?!?

Is there an alternative e-mail?

Many thanks in advance.
