Seeking an African-American male actor (late 20s–late 30s). Height: 6 feet and up, to play the lead role of Richard in a dramatic short film. Richard is a talented visual artist — quiet, and confident — who is drawn to strong, self-assured women. When he meets a woman who reignites his creative passion, he's forced to confront truths about himself and his past. This is a character-driven role focused on presence, subtle emotion, and natural performance — not heavy dialogue. • One-day shoot (approx. 4–5 hours) • Great opportunity for strong reel footage • Produced by a Women in Film member • Non-union Please send headshot, resume and reel (if available).
