buona sera fans,
Well, I had my meeting with the producer/director and guesse what I am going to make a movie. This is like A Dream come true for me as it will be my first Directing gig. I did Direct "Cuba" however that was a documentary not a comedy/Drama like this one. So this is a blessing for me and to tell you a little more about my film. Well, I will not give you the whole synopsis however, rather a little detail about this particular feature film. The title is "Both sides now" I wrote this script 4 years ago and never pursued the idea of making it. I was going through a hard time in my life at that particular
time and writing this script actually helped me pull through my own struggles. So basically it was my therapy and I did not halfto pay somebody to receieve it.
"Both Sides now"
writer/Director Amber Castello
In society we deal with labels everyday and often others are judged by a label society has imposed upon them. Well, labels lead to discrimination and hate. Love does not have a size, shape, color or sexual orientation for that matter. It is something that comes from inside you. If we all took the time to really reach out to others regardless of a label then there would not be so much hate and discrimination in this world. Love is universal and does not judge or label it is the purest thing in this world. It is not materlistic and it is kind, nurturing and accepting. I go into detail with my film and you see these 4 characters whom are diametrically different however, they all four come together and find something about each other they value. All of these characters have been judged by society standards in a negative way. The form amazing friendships and realtionships through the eyes of pure genuine love. There is more but that is a idea of this amazing feature film and the first feature with CASTELLO PRODUCTIONS. I am very proud to be able to show the world my work and reach out and help as many people as I can. We plan to start shooting in june and before then I will cast the movie as I am the casting director as well. We will build up this film for the hype and do web-epsodes leading up to filming. We are on a extremely low-budget so we are hiring out crew and actors for credit only. I am not even getting paid for this one and this is about the message and getting credit on your acting resume. We will be filming in Boulder Colorado on location. I will start auditiong for the cast in Febuary as well as crew to get the web stuff up and photos of the cast. I am looking for young looking leads as the cast needs to look around 17 and 18 and I will put up character profiles on a few different web sites. I will be casting mom and dad roles so age range 35-55 as well. I do not care how old anybody is as long as you can look younger and older. I will most likely get a student make-up artist so she/he can get credit. As I stated this feature film is for credit and we will also give you a copy of the movie to add to your reel. I will also be giving out recommendation letters for anyone aboard this project. I am looking at my Cu students that I want to audtion for the film. So you buolder students be prepared for a phone call and a audtion offer. Think big and dream big and you can make your dreams a reality.....I am very blessed and living my dream with film, music, and my self-help books and modeling. I want to make as much money as possible so I can give it back to others and help as many people as I can.....Thank you all for your support and book a session that will help me with finance for my film projects....kisses, amber castello
