Jobs
Posted by icrewzbot
SYNOPSIS A film student struggling to find work in Vancouver's 'Hollywood North' jumps at the chance to work on KREW, a low-budget horror feature inspired by Slavic folklore. However, between the creepy crew members and the oppressive film director, it appears that the dark rituals on set might be more than just movie magic… SHOOT DATES: November 17th, 18th, 19th, 2025 SUBMISSION DEADLINE: October 6th, 2025 ROLES Olek - Principal - Male - 30s A rugged, imposing figure with a quiet intensity. Olek hides beneath a calm, almost humorous demeanor. His presence is unsettling — the kind of man who could either help you carry groceries, or drag you into the woods without breaking a sweat. He is fiercely loyal to the art of filmmaking and sees himself as Poland's next auteur director. PLEASE NOTE: Eastern European accent required. Stanislaw - Principal - Male - 20s/30s A dutiful, soft-spoken camera assistant who takes pride in following orders to the letter. Stanislaw is earnest and eager to please, but his obedience often crosses into unsettling submission. He rarely makes eye contact, moving with quiet efficiency, always present but never drawing attention to himself. There's a sense that he may know more than he lets on, but he would never betray the confidence of his superiors. PLEASE NOTE: Actual role will not involve dialogue, but requires expressive subtlety (body language, stillness, quiet reactions). Elzbieta - Principal - Female - 20s/30s A quiet, meticulous makeup artist whose calm professionalism conceals an unsettling intensity. She exudes restraint, rarely speaking, But her steady gaze and deliberate movements suggest she understands far more about the production than she should. There's a duality to her presence — she could be a silent ally or a devoted participant in something sinister. PLEASE NOTE: Actual role will not involve dialogue, but requires expressive subtlety (body language, stillness, quiet reactions). Wojtek - Principal - Male - 20s/30s A commanding, pragmatic assistant director who runs the set with clipped authority and unwavering focus. Wojtek thrives on discipline and efficiency, barking orders with military precision. He seems as interested in filmmaking as he does in appeasing the director Olek at all costs. PLEASE NOTE: POLISH SPEAKING REQUIRED To submit, please email the email relay connected to this casting call with a headshot (or current selfie + full-body photo) and a resumé if available. Please confirm which role you are submitting for. We will reply with your sides and an upload link for your self-tape.
