<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
Pencil Ink Productions is casting male and female roles for The Misselthwaite Archives, a multimedia web series adaptation of <i>The Secret Garden</i> by Frances Hodgson Burnett. (This series is in the same vein as <i>The Lizzie Bennet Diaries</i> and <i>The Autobiography of Jane Eyre</i>.) More information can be found at <a href="http://misselthwaitearchives.com/">misselthwaitearchives.com</a>.<br />
<br />
<b>Female Roles:</b><br />
<br />
1. Mary (17) - lead<br />
Surly, cynical, and guarded; sees the worst in every situation and rarely opens up to other people. Particularly dislikes adult authority figures. Sarcastic and easily irritated, generally unpleasant to be around. Her negativity stems from loneliness and self-doubt, and her coming-of-age journey focuses on overcoming her trust issues and learning to find friends and family in the people around her.<br />
<br />
2. Phoebe (20s) - supporting<br />
Mary’s tutor. Optimistic and outgoing. The oldest of several siblings; loves kids and is a natural storyteller. Studying to be an elementary school teacher, and works multiple jobs to help her mother support the family. Very organized and focused.<br />
<br />
3. Mrs. Medlock (40s-50s) - supporting<br />
Mary and Colin’s caretaker; Art’s sister. Overprotective and strict, with a tendency for yelling. Has made many sacrifices for her family, and Colin’s well-being is her topmost priority.<br />
<br />
<b>Male Roles:</b><br />
<br />
4. Colin (14-17) - supporting<br />
Mary’s cousin. Allergic to everything and prone to asthma attacks. Spoiled, arrogant, melodramatic; hates when he doesn’t get his way. Obnoxiously intelligent, but afraid of the world outside his room and therefore very sheltered. Only understands social interactions from what he’s seen in movies or read on the internet. <br />
<br />
5. Declan (19) - supporting<br />
Phoebe’s brother. Quiet but friendly, good-natured, earthy. Loves animals and the outdoors. Avoids interpersonal conflict at all costs, even at detriment to himself, and always puts others’ needs before his own.<br />
<br />
6. Uncle Art (30s-40s) - supporting<br />
Mary’s uncle and Colin’s father. Became a workaholic after the death of his wife. Constantly away on business trips so as to avoid all reminders of her, including Colin.<br />
<br />
<b>Scheduling:</b><br />
<br />
The show will run from January through June of 2015, but production commitments may begin as early as November 2014 in the general Portland area. There are approximately 40 episodes, each 3-5 minutes long. Actors must be able to shoot 3-4 full days per month from December through June, likely on weekends, but we do plan to create our shooting schedule around the needs of our cast and crew.<br />
<br />
<b>Compensation:</b><br />
<br />
As this is a passion project on a practically-zero budget, all roles are non-union and unpaid. We can offer IMDb credit and HD copies of the footage, and Pencil Ink Productions will also provide significant discounts on our <a href="http://www.pencilinkproductions.com/p/services.html" target="_blank">custom acting reel services</a> for any actors cast in the series.<br />
<br />

</div>
Pencil Ink Productions is seeking writers and visual artists to join our development team for <i>The Misselthwaite Archives</i>, a multimedia web series adaptation of <i>The Secret Garden</i> by Frances Hodgson Burnett. (This series is similar to <i><a href="http://www.lizziebennet.com/" target="_blank">The Lizzie Bennet Diaries</a></i> and <i><a href="http://theautobiographyofja.wix.com/jane-eyre" target="_blank">The Autobiography of Jane Eyre</a></i>.) More information and a teaser trailer can be found at <a href="http://misselthwaitearchives.com/">misselthwaitearchives.com</a>.<br />
<br />
We are looking for:<br />
<br />
1) Screenwriters to join our writers’ room, develop the story, and pen a few episodes! Screenwriting experience preferred, but not necessary. (Strong storytelling skills are more important to us than whether or not you know how to format a script.) Experience working with online video or adaptations is a plus.<br />
<br />
2) Multimedia team members to create in-world story content for our website! We need people who can create in-world written documents (emails, newspaper articles, psych evals, school essays), as well visual images (posters/flyers, call logs, receipts, travel tickets, social media accounts). Photoshop/graphic design skills will be necessary to mimic the layouts of various documents. Familiarity with a variety of social media (Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, Snapchat) is a plus.<br />
(It’s worth noting that we haven’t been referring to this as “transmedia” because the social media elements will not be live or interactive, but will instead be screencaps posted on the website; imagine it as an online epistolary novel.)<br />
<br />
The show will run from January through May/June of 2015, but development meetings will begin in September 2014. We’d like most of the team to be located near Portland, Oregon, but we are open to considering people from other locations, especially for the media team, provided you can attend meetings via Skype or Google Hangouts.<br />
<br />
As this is a passion project on a practically-zero budget, all positions are unpaid. <br />
<br />
If you are interested in writing episodes or contributing to the multimedia team, please send an email with the subject “Misselthwaite Development Team” to <a href="mailto:contact@pencilinkproductions.com">contact@pencilinkproductions.com</a>. Let us know why you’re interested in the project, and attach a resume and any writing/media samples, if available.<br />

We recently finished a book trailer for <i><a href="http://farbeyond.com/Books.html" target="_blank">No Time to Wander: The Financial Compass for Young Americans</a></i> by Paul Nourigat. The trailer and marketing campaign should be launching in the next week or so, and we can't wait to share the video!</div>

We're currently working on several projects with the <a href="http://www.andaire.org/" target="_blank">An Daire Academy of Irish Dance</a> here in Portland. We spent the weekend of St. Patrick's Day filming their performances at various festivals and venues around town, and we will be using the footage in promos for the school.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We've also partnered with An Daire for a documentary about the cultural importance of Irish dance, which will focus on feiseanna (dance competitions) and their ability to bring the Irish community together. We are currently in pre-production, and we'll be launching a crowdfunding campaign soon to help offset some of our costs.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Until then, however, check out the An Daire dancers' awesome rendition of "Gangnam Style" by Psy!</div>
