I have been an X-Men fan growing up, I still read the comics here and there but last time I updated I was so disappointed at how many X-Men members died. Nightcrawler was a classic but even the new and exciting characters like Vanisher and Fantom X died. Unless they plan to revive them for future storyline purposes, Marvel comics is failing to market their X-Men franchise. I also heard Cloak and Dagger were X-Men members for a short time. Although they did not fit in with the other X-Men I thought they would fit in more with Wolverine’s new secret X-Force and could do some drug crime fighting on the side along with other X-force members.

I’m 16 and attempting to start an acting career in Ohio (don’t tell me to move to LA – i’m with an agency and there is at least a small market in every city) – anyways, i’ve found a couple great auditions from actingmidwest.com, where directors post the specifics of their films or commercials they want to cast and leave an email to contact them through. (if you live in the midwest, check it out, it’s a great source!)
I found 2 great possibilities that would work for my age – one a low budget SAG! I emailed the email they gave with my headshots and resume and received no response.
One of these was posted about a week ago and said this:
“Casting session will be November 22, 2011, so respond promptly. Online casting will be available for those 50 miles outside of Cincinnati, Ohio”
I responded the day of, and still have not recieved a response for it. Today is November 21.
The other, the SAG, said that some of the actors would need training in combat. I can’t quite explain it, so this is what they said:
“Kino 13- One of 13 fighters that protect the treasure. We are looking for looks and fighting skills/athletic ability. 11 roles open. Your audition will consist of you in your unique wardrobe, in character, then performing martial arts, gymnastics, athletic moves. NO DIALOGUE, JUST CHARACTER expressions and movement. By the way: If you do not understand the difference between on screen and real combat, DO NOT SUBMIT! We have no time for seeing who is the “best fighter ion the world” on our set! This is a MOVIE not a tournament! Here is the film description of the Kino 13, think of them as X-Men type characters, but not with super powers, other than those described.
Description: The Red Rock Project. A secret operation using the paranormal abilities of the worlds thirteen deadliest psychic, psychotic killers. Named The Kino Thirteen, they are Individuals with super senses, advanced fighting skills and sociopaths tendencies. Psychic vampires, steroid infused combat troops.
Jakob Flint’s kids-(1) Male, teen age ***(1)Female-teen age***. The unlucky children of the film’s star, Jakob Flint. They are held hostage by Vanzetti and his men and meet a quick demise, Mafia style. Ages: 13-17, Caucasian. No dialog. For these auditions, the teen agers in question need to do a monologue of their choice from any movie featuring an emotional range for a teen ager. This monologue must run no longer than 3 minutes. There are no lines in the film, but ACTING talent through emoting is ESSENTIAL!”
Because of the way they spaced it on the page, I can’t tell if they meant that even Jakob Flint’s daughter needs combat training, so I emailed to clarify and also sent my other information. Did I ruin it by doing this?
Sorry if that was confusing, and if you skipped to here, basically I sent in a request to audition for 2 films that I would reallllly like to do, but recieved no response. I don’t want to be annoying and submit again (I wouldn’t do that) but I don’t know how to not let this opportunity slip from my fingers!! Help!
