For my final project as a visual arts student, I'm making a 6- to 8-minute short film. The film's style will be similar to a comic book, with split screens and picture-in-picture shots.

the concept in brief:
Said is a student who lives with his boyfriend Sander and Sander's girlfriend Lisa. What started out as a pleasant living situation has become hell. Sander and Lisa do nothing but argue, and Said can't even rest without his earbuds at full volume. When they break, he decides to go out and buy new ones.

In the only shop still open, everything goes surprisingly smoothly... as far as Said's luck goes. He's cockblocked by a lesbian couple, ridiculed by the cashier, but eventually walks out satisfied with a Capri-Sun and new earbuds in hand. Then Cas, an old friend, appears and offers him a ride home. Cas lights up a cigarette and the two catch up. In the middle of their conversation, Cas is recognized by Kevin, someone he owes money to. Cas punches Kevin. Said gets out of the car to check on Kevin but drops the new earbuds in his haste.

Once back home, Sander and Lisa seem to be at peace again, until another argument breaks out. Said just wants to turn on his music and forget about the world for a while—but even that doesn't work out for him.

An ordinary evening in Said's life: noisy, tiring, and painfully recognizable.

What do we offer?
What do we offer? A role in a film with a unique style, an expansion of your network, and a new project in your portfolio. As a compensation, I'd also be happy to help edit a showreel that you, as an actor/actress, can use to showcase your talent to others.
