The Hunting of the Snark
| This is a student HD digital short based on Lewis Carroll’s poem: ‘The Hunting of the Snark’. The film is a dark fantasy about a crew of absurd and eccentric people who go to a strange, eerie land in search of a mysterious creature called The Snark.
Seeking- The Bellman: Leader of the expedition. The Bellman has no interest in the welfare of himself or his crew, he only cares about hunting the Snark and puts himself and them in progressively more and more dangerous situations. Male 30-45, any race. The Baker: As mysterious as the Snark, the Baker comes to the crew without an identity and is assigned the role of a Baker. He doesn’t fit in with the rest of the crew and is the only one who suspects that the hunt won’t end as gloriously as the Bellman claims it will. Male 25-30, any race. The Butcher: Not very intelligent, just tough looking, everyone expects the Butcher to be the bodyguard of the trip. Unfortunately for them, the only things he can kill are Beavers, and the only one around is a dear member of their crew. Male, any age, any race. The Billiard-Marker: Adventurous and brave, The Billiard- Marker is hunting the Snark because he has a deep respect for the Bellman even though the Bellman doesn’t care about him. Eventually he becomes disillusioned with the hunt. Male, 20-25, any race. The Banker: The most reluctant member of the crew, the Banker is actually very content with his life and only hunts the Snark because everyone else is doing it. When he is put into harms way and attacked he goes insane. 35-45. Any race. If interested, e-mail headshot, resume, and questions to rubberband45@yahoo.com |
