Open Call for WILD ONE
Kate Sherman, performance maker and choreographer as a Wild One character.
WILD ONE will be shot as an episodic supernatural micro series about the intersecting lives of a sovereign collective of Enlightened Masters who decide to pierce the veil of time and revisit their past lives. Traversing a multi-era arc over the course of the 15th, 19th and 44th centuries; they seek to experience alternate potentials to their most controversial and illustrious past-life choices—transforming the course of human history and time itself.
We are inviting actors, dancers, and creative collaborators who resonate with the themes of transformation, freedom, and transcendence.
This is an opportunity to contribute to an innovative and deeply joyful artistic experience.
Available Roles:
Lead Actors – WILD ONEs
Our WILD ONEs transition from human consciousness to enlightened, and multi-dimensional beings. These characters must express vulnerability, strength, and transcendence. We seek performers who can embody the evolution from unintegrated ego to enlightenment through movement, facial expression, and above all — consciousness.Supporting Actors
Pivotal characters who represent the fallen power structures throughout time. These roles require actors capable of portraying potentially intense emotional and psychological journeys from control to awakening. Physicality and the ability to communicate power dynamics without dialogue will be key.Dancers/Physical Performers
Performers skilled in contemporary, interpretive dance or physical theatre to create sequences of awakening, freedom, and the collapse of societal structures. Dance choreography will be central to the narrative, and physical expression will play a significant role in the overall experience.Immersive VR Experience Creatives
Visionaries in VR design, cinematography, sound, and production are needed to bring "WILD ONE" to life. Candidates would benefit from having a deep understanding of how immersive technology enhances narratives with emotional depth. Experience with 360-degree film/video is a plus.Sound Designer/Composer
Collaborate with us to create a soundscape that complements the awakening journey. Ideal candidates have experience creating immersive sound designs for art installations or VR experiences. The ideal collaborator will work with layers of atmospheric sound, experimental elements, and atmospheric music to support the narrative.
Who are our collaborative partners?:
Passionate individuals who believe in transcending artistic boundaries and have an ease with themselves and others in a highly supportive, collaborative and ego-free environment.
A desire to engage in transformational themes and visual storytelling with all walks of life.
A collaborative spirit and openness to exploring new forms of media with curiosity and joy.
Experience or willingness to experiment in non-traditional performance spaces, including immersive environments and respectfully engage with people from all cultural backgrounds.
Have a proven track-record of reliability, integrity and bringing their full presence in a grounded and engaged manner to whatever they do.
Have honour and respect for themselves and others with a countenance that creates a safe space for boundless creativity and vulnerability.
Location and Shooting
Rehearsals and shooting will take place in France in late 2025 or in 2026. Dates to be confirmed and based on collaborative availability and grant funding. Grace’s style of shooting means a very small crew, live creative inspiration and an openness to inventing story as we go.
Artists from all backgrounds and locations are welcome to apply; travel and accommodation can be arranged for the right candidates. We do not anticipate a large production. Instead we are focused on creating engaging, deep and high-quality story-telling with focused and passionate individuals.
Consider theatre productions and film works like Dogville in which sets are sometimes present and sometimes not. We intend to develop the WILD ONE series with a similar production set up to support more freedom in our story-telling.
