Students from the Polytechnic University of Turin are seeking actors for their short film, “429.” They are looking for two male or female leads, aged 20-25, as well as extras of the same age range. The shoot will take place in Turin from May 2nd to 5th. Interested individuals should apply by April 22, 2025, by sending an email to castingcortostudentesco@gmail.com with two color photos (close-up and full-body), date of birth, address, phone number, and a brief introduction highlighting any acting experience.
This project is particularly geared towards Turin residents, as the production cannot cover travel expenses for those outside the city. It’s important to note that, being a student film, the roles are unpaid and there is no expense reimbursement. Adriana Barone and Claudia Costantino are handling the casting.
While the lack of compensation may deter some, this represents a valuable opportunity for aspiring actors in Turin to gain on-set experience and build their portfolios. Student films can often be a springboard for emerging talent, providing a platform to showcase skills and network with future filmmakers.
