In order to increase the publicity of METU and to reflect the university life to everyone from all ages with an entertaining language, under the leadership of Mehmet Auf, our alumni from the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Business Administration, actor and screenwriter of the series “Çocuklar Duymasın”, and METU Science Communication Group (METU-BiG), and with support of AdımODTÜ, a sitcom series will be shot with a fun language about the lives of our students in and around our university. Our students will be able to apply to kio@metu.edu.tr until the 8th of November 2019, 17:30.
METU students who want to take part in the project as an actor, are expected to provide information about their education or experience (workshop, seminar, the training course, student clubs) on acting, writing, dancing, music, musical, elocution, singing, gymnastics, acrobatics, sports or physical theater, alongside with a description of daily activity (fishing, shopping, studying, etc.) in a one-minute long video, without any genre restrictions (comedy, horror, drama, musical) as if it was the biggest dream of their lives.
METU students, who have good observations about student life, and ideas that will support the story and script production, need to prepare a text of maximum 500 words that will express their most funny student memories and opinions about the pros and cons of being a student. Students who want to demonstrate their talent can write a dialogue between a chair and an apple, with a maximum of 500 words.
Pre-qualifying candidates will be called for a casting and screenwriting audit. A pilot episode will be shot with the students who are successful in the audition.
