When are the official breaking dawn castings?

March 20, 2010 - 2:13 am 4 Comments

I want to audition for the part of Zafrina, I live in NYC. Does anyone know where to send my resumee and when the castings actually begin?

They haven’t announced the casting director yet or when they will start accepting submissions. You can keep an eye on this blog which will list the casting director’s name and address, which roles they are casting, and when to submit materials as soon as this has been announced http://www.acting-auditions.org/2009/10/twilight-saga-breaking-dawn-official.html
Don’t click on the banner ad at the top of the page – that is for a paid website that has nothing to do with official casting. No website in the world will get you on a Twilight film. If you don’t have an agent, then it doesn’t cost anything but postage to submit your headshot, resume and demo reel directly to the casting director once they are announced.

What is the difference between HRS casting and HRCS castings?

March 18, 2010 - 3:31 am 1 Comment

I would also like to know the grades for these castings with composition.This is related with material science.

HRCS is hot rolled carbon steel casting. HRS could be any hot rolled steel casting. The compositions can vary widely depending on your requirement.

What brand / type of paint should I use with Polyester Resin Castings?

March 16, 2010 - 4:16 am 1 Comment

I am using "Aristocrat Water Clear Polyester Casting Resin" to create some small charms / pendants for jewelry, but I don’t know whether or not I should be looking for certain types of paints for such a material.

Also, do I need any kind of sealant or primer before / after I paint the charms?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!

I don’t believe that colorant is usually painted on top of the cured surface of resins (polyester or epoxy resins), but resins can be colored while they’re still wet. You can buy the special colorants "soft for resins," or you can just use artists oil paints–those will be transparent unless you add white which actually makes any color opaque.

You shouldn’t need a sealer on the resin normally, but if cured resins can be painted you might need something that would give the surface a bit of tooth for the paint to hold onto.

Or you could try some of the "glass paints" … they may stick well enough, or perhaps you could paint on top of *those* when they dry?

You might want to check out some of the info, lessons, links, etc. about using polyester and epoxy resins for making small jewelry items, etc., too:

P.S. You can paint on top of polymer clay castings, etc., though, and on top of air-dry clays too. And you can also make molds from polymer clay or other materials, then cast polymer clay shapes in them and harden.
If you’re interested in those things, check out these pages at my site as well:

True Grit Open Casting Call

http://www.truegritcasting.com/

Here’s your chance to star in a big movie. We’ve got the open casting call info right now!

Hey everyone. Welcome back to Clevver TV. I’m Dana Ward here at our Beverly Hills studio with some info for those of you seeking stardom. If you’ve ever wanted to act alongside some of Hollywood’s best, this is your chance. Paramount Pictures is set to hold open castings for a 12 to 17 year old girl for the upcoming western film, True Grit. This is a lead role, people, for the movie and according to the TrueGritCasting.com site, “no experience necessary.”
If you’re interested in this audition, you’d be playing the 14-year-old Mattie a simple, tough character in the post-Civil War Arkansas. She sets off on a journey with 2 marshals to hunt her father’s killer. No word on who else the lucky lady will star opposite, but it’s pretty sweet that True Grit is completed by the famed Coen Brothers.

So this open call already got started with a stop in Little Rock, but casting will also be stopping in Jackson, Mississippi and Oklahoma. Any one else who can’t make it, can send in a taped audition. All of the details related to this open call can be found on TrueGritCasting.com.
Let us know if you’re gonna hit up the casting or maybe send in a tape. We’ve been hearing that a bunch of you really want to get a shot at acting in the pro-world, so this is your shot. I’m Dana Ward at Clevver TV – good luck to you all!!

Do hawks and other birds of prey besides the owl make castings or pellets of bones and fur?

March 14, 2010 - 4:29 am 4 Comments

I have found what I think is an owl pellet, but just want to be sure that it didn’t come out the other end of a different animal!

Yes, Hawks, eagles, and falcons all do! Since birds cannot pick and choose whether they eat bone and feathers/fur or not, they have to be able to cast these items back out. They usually rip their food apart with their beak, holding it with their foot. This leaves the fur and bone inside. They swollow large chunks whole, and let their digestive system work it out…
If it looks like an owl pellet, it’s not a defecate. It could be a pellet from another animal, but came from the mouth, not the "other end"
