National Jewish Health “125th Anniversary”  Casting Breakdown and Selfie Direction  

Roles:  

“Kind Eyed” Elderly Man – 70 to 75ish – Ethnically Ambiguous Character Notes: This man has to really sell the idea that he is determined to fill his balloon  despite his struggle and derive satisfaction and a sense of of accomplishment when he does  so. He then needs to find that he’s joined by a young girl who has done the same. They share  a smile, she takes his hand, and they join the celebration. 

“Angelic” Little Girl – 8 to 10ish – Ethnically Ambiguous Character Notes: Sweet, innocent and angelic, her look to the old man should be joyous and  inclusive. She then needs to take his hand, as a newly found friend, and lead him to the party. 

Script:  

We see a kind-eyed, elderly person seated in a chair in a banquet hall. 

He is focusing intently on blowing up a small, blue balloon. 

The balloon starts to inflate as we see determination flash across his face. . 

The man falters and struggles as the balloon begins to deflate. 

Close up of the balloon as it is finally filled . The man smiles as he ties the end closed. The man walks across the hall to a wall of pinned up balloons and starts to pin his as well. Man turns to see a little standing behind him smiling. She walks up to pin her own balloon. 

The man helps the girl put her balloon high on the wall. The girl takes his hand and guides the  elderly man toward a dance floor. Together they enjoy the beauty of the celebration. 

Direction for Selfie Casting Submission:  

Name, Age Range and Agent. Profile and head to toe shot. Please note your Height as well.  From there, please follow the performance in the script above using a medium closeup so we  can see the emotion behind your performance! You can truncate the walking portion of the  performance. For the Elderly Man submissions, if at all possible, please use a real birthday type  balloon if at all possible since we want to both see the struggle as well as the success.  

Thank You!
