For those who haven't had an opportunity to check out my previous posts and are not familiar with the Morganville Vampires series here is a recap.
Morganville The Web TV Series is an adaption of Rachel Caine’s bestselling series of novels. The story is set in the fictitious Texas town of Morganville which is unique because it is owned, ran and operated entirely by vampires. The series currently spans 15 novels but despite this success it has never being adapted for television or film. Rachel decided it was time for this to change and the time was right to take the world of Morganville from page to screen. To make this happen in the summer of 2013 Rachel launched a kickstarter campaign with the aim of raising $75,000 to put the series into production. Thanks to the devoted Morganville fan base around the world it smashed this initial target raising a grand total of $81,752. This means that six TV quality webisodes of approximately 10 minutes each will now be made written by Rachel herself. The series will be produced and directed by Blake Calhoun responsible for a number of successful web series including Pink the Series.
Since then Rachel and her team have been hard at work preparing to bring the series to the screen. Pre production continued this week with some very exciting news as Rachel announced that they will be holding open auditions for the parts of CLAIRE DANVERS & EVE ROSSER, meaning that you could be joining Amber as a key member of the cast. The first stage is a video casting call where those auditioning will submit a video of themselves reading for the part. This means it's open to Morganville fans from around the world not just inside the United States.
All the audition information you need for the parts of both Claire and Eve are available to download now from morganvilletheseries.com. These PDF files will contain the audition piece you will be reading and a full list of terms and conditions that MUST be followed for your audition to be considered.
Two important points to note here:
1) Due to legal and logistical reasons all applicants for both roles must be 18 years of age or older.
