I have to cast an independent film, this requires asking female friends for both head shots and clothes sizes.This is a far as I know a death sentence. Also the main girl I am asking is my main crush.... The real down side is I have to let her know I really need that info so that we can finish casting.I just need the right words to say "send the damn headshot already, I am not asking as a crush but to get some work done".
just don't be fucking weird and ask her already so you can finish casting
>>33871160What is it for? What is the film?
>>33872465I had let her know I needed it but she didn't sent it over...
>>33872475Horror, independent, and short. Really just the local special effects guys playing with some toys.
>>33872532Special effects toys? Like what?
>>33872551Guns, smoke bombs or smoke generators, maybe small squibs. Maybe some lights effects.
Fuck it.I asked one in person, is it ok to just say "I really do need that pic / info, could you send it over?"
yes that is fine, reiterate that you need it to move the casting along and give her a deadline
>>33872827I hate to ever be pushy but I think I need to lay down a time line.
I also went ahead and asked a second person. I can't look like a dummy just because I am waiting on someone else.It's shitty because I know "let me get a pic of you" isn't the most comfortable thing but the context is obvious and I have to get on with things. Also she is really blond and honestly not perfect because of that. I hate it.
Update.No responses.Turns out asking girls questionable things isnt good for social good graces.Mark down two people I'll never speak to again.
>>33875229a headshot for a casting isnt questionable, you are just dealing with people that dont care
>>33875359I am dealing with young ladies. they assume everything is questionable until proven otherwise.I dont find asking to be strange at all, but I am aware they might think its strange.
