"The Hobbit" Open Casting Call - Wellington

HEY PEOPLE OF NON-AVERAGE HEIGHTS!

They're doing an open casting call for the scale doubles for the Hobbit, even though the movie doesn't even have an offical green light.

" The Hobbit casting department advertised in The Dominion Post yesterday for "short and tall" people for a preliminary casting call to take place at the Te Whaea National Dance and Drama Centre in Newtown on Sunday.

They are on the lookout for men aged 16 and over who are 1.23 metres (4ft) to 1.58m (5ft 2in) tall or over 2.03m (6ft 8in). Women, aged 16 or over, must be between 1.2m and 1.53m. "

Curse my being a normal height!

I did four nights in RotK but am TOTALLY signing up for open casting calls when they want average height horse-riders. Or baggage handlers. Or anything else they might want someone to do.

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IT! If you're the right height, totally. It's loads of fun, and being a double is probably even more fun than being an extra.

I'm never sure exactly how tall I am- I think I'm 5'0 which is about 152.4 cm D:

Borderline something Im chure...

Nothing to lose... And lets face it, its not like they are going to end up with enormous numbers of little people showing up to auditions...
Actually...

Phooey, just try out anyway?
May we all bask in the radiance of your height challenged ness!
May your sheer space efficiency spark wonder in their eyes!

whee

Good luck!

Wear flats and comb your hair flat. Go for it even if you're borderline. The worst they can do is say no. Then you've gambled an afternoon for a chance of being blurry in the distance of a movie.

I think I'm actually gonna give this a shot. If being 144 could ever come in useful for once in my life, this could be it?

Although I am Asian... hmm.
