Casting for the Long Island University CW Post thesis film “Follow.”
Non-Union. Shooting March 5th-7th in Montgomery, New York. Producer: Daniel
Brady. Writer/Director: Brian DiLorenzo. Faculty Advisor: Susan Zeig. Format:
Sony HVX. Audition Dates: TBA. Callback Dates February 15. No pay rate, but
food expenses, as well as travel and any other will be provided for by
production. This is a student thesis film, written and directed by Brian
DiLorenzo. The story takes place mostly on a school bus and the theme is
religion. We will be filming on an actual school bus in upstate New York for a
long weekend, and the screenplay is pretty dialogue heavy. It's basically a
conversation between a Christian and an atheist teenager, which reveals deep,
painful truths about their own beliefs.

Seeking:
Samuel - 15-18. Caucasian. Samuel is a quiet, introspective teenager who
develops an infatuation with his next door neighbor, Natalie. Instead of
actually talking to her, he simply watches from afar, occasionally drawing her
in his notebook. He is deeply religious and follows the traditional
Catholic practices. Once his faith is questioned by Natalie, he is torn between
his desire for her and the comfort of his beliefs.

Natalie - 15-18. Caucasian. Natalie is an intelligent, self-assured,
cynical, teenage girl and the object of her neighbor’s desire. Her parents are
both atheists and she was raised to believe that this is no God and religion
is wrong. When she meets Samuel on the bus, she establishes a connection
with him, and starts to see things from a different point of view.
