when i lost you - short film
Poetic, reflective, voice-over type short. Aiming to be less than 90 seconds so it can be posted on social media. Jo reflects on passing moments near the end of his relationship with Cassidy - trying to decipher exactly when it was that he lost his love. A reflective, moody and aesthetic film that is simple but effective. Feel to free to apply as a couple if applicable.
​
No budget, a small honorarium will be available, nonunion.
​
​
JO
Male, 25-32.
​
Jo​ is kind and caring and interested in building a healthy and mature relationship. He cares about quality time spent with his partner. He likes to keep a clean, comfortable, safe home. He is sophisticated but in a homey and grounded kind of way.
​
​
CASSIDY
Male, 25-32.
​
Cassidy is fun and energetic and outgoing. He is a little bit messy and indecisive. He likes to be the center of attention and enjoys being around Jo because he likes to give him attention.
​
​
As these roles are a romantically involved couple - there is a general sense of closeness & intimacy in the film (laying together, holding hands, touching an arm or shoulder etc). Our priority is always to create a safe environment for cast and crew.
