Casting & Crew Call for “Paranoid Girl”

Dear Readers

We’re excited to announce both a casting call and crew search for our upcoming short film, Paranoid Girl (working title), which will be shot in Basel, Switzerland, this coming January. Our indie filmmaking team is full of passionate, young creatives with a clear vision, and we’re on the hunt for like-minded individuals who want to help us bring this project to life!

About the film:

Paranoid Girl tells the story of Elodie, a young foreign student in Basel who is battling severe paranoia and anxiety. As her fears escalate through a series of nightmarish events, the lines between reality and illusion blur in visually striking and surreal ways. It's a film that delves into themes of isolation, fear, and perception, all set against the cultural backdrop of Basel.

Whether you’re an experienced actor or someone passionate about being part of a meaningful project, we’d love to hear from you. The film will be in English but we are not necessarily looking for native speakers.

Crew Call:

We are still assembling our amazing team and are looking to fill some essential roles behind the camera. If you have experience in any of the following, we’d love for you to join us:

  • Gaffer

  • Production Sound Mixer

  • Boom Operator

  • First Assistant Director

  • Sound Designer

  • Colorist

  • BTS Videographer

This is a paid opportunity, and our goal is to create a film that not only challenges us creatively but also leaves a lasting cultural impact. We're aiming to screen Paranoid Girl at Swiss and international film festivals, and this is your chance to be part of something unique and artistically valuable.

Interested?
Please send your headshot, CV, and any relevant materials (for cast and crew) to Thierry Perrig (Director) at thierry.perrig@gmail.com by 20.10. We’ll be reviewing submissions and will contact selected candidates for the casting session.

We can’t wait to meet you and work together on this exciting project. Whether you're in front of the camera or behind it, there's a place for you on Paranoid Girl.

Best regards,
Thierry Perrig & Bloerred Films
Director and Production Team of Paranoid Girl
