Job description

The production "Temporary Highs" is a graduation film from Macromedia University Cologne. A German short film set in Ibiza that uses specially produced hip-hop and R&B songs to tell a non-linear story about forced cooperation between ex-lovers.

The first half of the film follows the perspective of rapper André in Düsseldorf, which is emphasized by the focus on hip-hop in the soundtrack. The second half of the film focuses on the isolated perspective of Zari in Ibiza, which is accompanied by an RnB soundtrack. The structure of the film is similar to that of longer music videos. The story is told non-linearly and contains flashbacks, which are accompanied by songs composed especially for the film and written from the perspectives of the protagonists.

Food, accommodation and travel costs will be covered

Contact person: Nicodemus

Role/requirement profile

Zari is a talented young woman who has to choose between being true to herself and being faithful. Like many young people, she wants the freedom to find out what she actually wants from life. But her risk-averse label won't allow any changes to her life or her music, as Zari, especially in combination with her boyfriend and music partner André, is one of the label's most successful artists. She loves her boyfriend André and identifies with the fact that he produces different music for the label than what he composes in his private notebook. She avoids making decisions that could negatively affect others, which is why her communication with André, as well as with her manager, is slipping.

For the role of Zari, we are looking for a vocally experienced actress in the hip-hop/RnB field. Attached is an excerpt of the 6th scene for a self-tape. If possible, we would also ask for an audio sample. Possible inspirations are: Snoh Aalegra, Jessie Reyez Jhené Aiko, or similar
