CASTING CALL

The Producers of the first feature film production of ‘Quantum Leap’ in nearly 17 years are seeking to cast a female bodybuilder for the fan based production of ‘A Leap to Di for’. This is a legitimate, paying job for serious candidates only.

The role is for the end “tag” of the show featuring the main character of Sam Beckett leaping into his next life (or show in this case). The scene is fairly simple… Sam arrives in his next ‘life’, unsuspecting of who he has leapt into. (For those of you who remember the show, you’ll know what we are referring to). Sam is at a bodybuilding competition in 1987, and at first, he believes he is just a woman… but as he walks by a mirror, he sees who he really is.

That’s it. Nothing terribly difficult or time consuming. This would be a lot of fun for the right person… someone who loves the show and have some fun while shooting a ‘teaser’ clip for the next episode. Depending on the success of this re-launch, we’ll shoot an entire episode around this ‘leap’, featuring your character as the lead role in a possible future production. If we shoot the next episode, the show will tackle the issues of a woman’s acceptance as a legitimate bodybuilder. While we (the Producers) are no experts in the professional bodybuilding arena, we are seeking a uniquely beautiful woman who is big and muscular.

This film is set to premiere in Hollywood, CA, on March 27, 2009 at the 20th Anniversary Festival of ‘Quantum Leap’. Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell are slated to attend along with countless other stars, writers, and the entire creative force behind the popular TV show. Click here for a complete breakdown of this exciting event.

The Producers of this extraordinary production will pay $100 for just one day, plus fuel reimbursement… at most; you’re looking at 1-2 hours of work. (We’re asking for interested candidates ONLY from a reasonable distance to and from Indianapolis. We cannot afford to fly and house you.) Plus, you get a once in a lifetime shot at getting on the silver screen in Hollywood in a legitimate film. We realize this sounds too good to be true, but it honestly is, folks. Download the scene here, and you’ll see just how easy your job would be.

We encourage interested candidates to explore this website and get to know who we are, and the high production values going into this film.

Running Time: 60 Minutes
Screening at: Beverly Garland Hotel, Universal Studios, Hollywood, CA. – March 27-29
Available on-line at RACSO Films after Hollywood Premiere
Pay: $100

On November 1st of 2008, the Eastern USA Fitness and Bodybuilding Championships and New York State Ironman Championships (bodybuilding plus bench press & squat for reps) will be held at the East Rochester High School, East Rochester NY. This is a drug free community awareness program to help promote drug free sports competition.

The event will include divisions for kids, teens, men, women, masters and physically challenged. The age groups will range from 6 to 70 years old. This is an amateur only event that will offer a $500.00 expense reimbursement for the overall open class winners. $3500.00 total in cash and prizes. Free admission and free entry to East Rochester High School students.

International Olympic Committee (IOC) Standardized Drug Testing will be used. All of the trophy winners will be drug tested, not polygraph tested. Participants are also tested randomly. Other natural organizations don’t drug test as thoroughly or accurately and some actually allow substances such as prohormones and designer steroids which are illegal. This is the only real drug free contest Rochester has ever seen.

This event is sanctioned by the largest natural organization in the world, the International Natural Bodybuilding Association (INBA). Entry forms are available at Dick Ide Pontiac Honda, Lifetime Fitness and The Vitamin Shoppe. HOTLINE: 585-752-6398. EMAIL: EasternUSA@mail.com.

In addition to $1000.00 in free door prizes at the event, there will be raffles and prizes for LEAFF or Law Enforcement Assisting Fallen Families who raises money for the families of police officers who died in the line of duty. For a small donation or a used printer cartridge, a ticket can be purchased. Drop off boxes for used printer cartridges, fuser cores, cell phones and lap tops will be at Dick Ide Pontiac Honda and Lifetime Fitness.
