It's been a great three weeks or so doing auditions for the next seasons of "Pink". Today we held our last ones and we'll be announcing the final cast next week.
Heck, our shoot starts in just over two weeks, so we gotta get things squared away!
This was one of the more extensive castings I have done. On my prevous projects I have typically cast folks I've either worked with before, or were referred to. It's worked out very well too. But this time I had to cast "college age" actors. All my friends now are pretty much in their late 20s to early 40s, so college doesn't really fit. But it's been a good experience and I've had the opportunity to meet a lot of fresh faces. Since "Pink" is a low budget show I acted as the Casting Director, so I've been involved from the very beginning. This is good though. I'm directing another web series in the next few months and will be going through the same process again. A lot of the actors I've seen recently are being considered for the new show as well. Hopefully it will help expedite that casting!
BTW, If anyone knows of a "college age" Matt Damon PLEASE let me know. We will need someone like that for the lead in the new show. More details will follow.
For now though it's back to "Pink". We kinda need to finalize the scripts now too. :)

Who Am I?
I also created the Streamy and Webby award-winning web series PINK, which to date has been viewed online around 10 MILLION times at places like YouTube, Hulu, Koldcast and TheWB.com. And speaking of TheWB.com, I also produced and directed an online thriller for them called EXPOSED. It was released summer 2010. And most recently I created a new online sci-fi series called CONTINUUM, which is part of the online indie TV network JTS.tv - Just The Story and NOW available via VOD through indie platform Distrify.
Oh, and I don't shoot weddings. Thanks for asking though.
