DO NOW: Casting Descriptions
For the script that you are revising:
1. List the characters.
2. Write a brief description of the type of character it is. Imagine an actor is thinking about auditioning.
Example:
Amanda Dolor - Early thirties. A very attractive, high-strung individual. She is mercurial and has a terrific verbal capacity. It is important that she be very thin.
Bea - Mid-fifties. A Jewish matron with a heavy Long Island accent. She is abrasive and easily offended.
Ford Dolor - Mid-thirties. A strikingly handsome man, Ford is a filmmaker and a man of ideas, not words.
Otto Woodnick - Mid-thirties. Hugely overweight. Otto is flamboyant, Jewish, insecure in the extreme and full of rage. He is a verbal tornado, quite out of control.
