Cod, Now looking for Cast

We would like to thank those whose have contacted us and sent us their details already.

We are happy to say that we have now cast several of the major roles and are well under way to finalising casting on some others. We will put details on this site later.

However, we are still looking for willing and talented actors (with or without experience) who would be prepared to take part in this project simply for the experience and fun of it and as a chance to practice your craft. We are happy to provide a copy of the synopsis and/or script segments to interested parties. We plan to film these scenes late this year and early next year.

Below is a list of characters we are still looking to cast. The number of pages does not necessarily indicate pages of dialogue but should give you an idea of commitment needed to film.

There will also be a large need for extras of all ages. Thanks.

If you are are interested please email cast@FishThatAteCanberra.com.au

(if possible please include a resume and photo, please reduce image size to 750kb or less - for simple instructions please see How to reduce image size)
