ROLE BREAKDOWNS:
(LEAD) LUNA – FEMALE 18-23 – SHOOT DAYS: 4
Female, open to anyone. Even though Luna is very spirited and loving, she is still much so within her own head. Causing her emotions to bottle up and burst out from time to time. She finds peace in the normality of things and often tries to run from the truth. Must know how to swim. Partial Nudity (swim suit)
(PRINCIPAL)HUGO – MALE 18-23 – SHOOT DAYS: 2
Male, open to anyone. Well cultured, he has a very gentle disposition and warm air about him. However, his dreams and passions come first, and finds difficulty in telling the truth right away lest he hurt the people closest to him.
(ACTOR) MOTHER – FEMALE 45-55 – SHOOT DAYS: 1
Female, open to anyone. Even though she has a commanding nature, she frantically cares for and loves her two children to bits. She has her quirks, but all the while has an emotional intelligence when it comes to her kids. Especially Luna.
(ACTOR) – YOUNG LUNA 7-13 – SHOOT DAYS: 1
Characters should resemble primary actors. Will involve stunt work. Young Luna fights Young Hugo in a flashback sequence.
(ACTOR) – YOUNG HUGO 7-13 – SHOOT DAYS: 1
