Calling All Actors: Two Stars Needed For a Downtown Movie

Our Filmmakers in Chief, Remy and Andrew Neymarc, known professionally as the Neymarc Brothers, are gearing up to film in Lower Manhattan this summer. The duo, whose credits include the viral short “Happy Valentine’s Day,” beat out an impressive selection of applicants for the Filmmaker in Chief creative residency with their film treatment, and soon they’ll start filming “Dance” downtown. The Neymarcs are looking to cast two lead roles: Gabriela and Raphael.

The short film follows 25-year-old Gabriela, a dancer who recently lost her brother, Raphael, as “she battles grief while trying to reach a life-changing audition, her gateway to fulfilling her dream of becoming a professional dancer in New York City,” according to the film synopsis. 

Rehearsals will begin in August, with filming set to take place from September 5-8 here in Lower Manhattan. You can find the casting call for Gabriela here, and the casting call for Raphael at this link. Break a leg!
