There will be free food and drink on all days, plus DVD copies of the completed project for the actors to use for their reel, although I cannot provide monetary compensation.

Breakdown:
| Role Name | Gender | Ethnicity | Age Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Julian Gomez | Male | South American/Latino | 25-30 | JULIAN GOMEZ, Hispanic, 23, is a medical school student that has returned home for the summer to care for his younger brother. He is a natural leader, aspiring to be a great general practitioner, yet unable to feel competent in taking care of his younger brother. |
| Warren Gomez | Male | South American/Latino | 18-24 | WARREN GOMEZ, Hispanic, 20, is a testicular cancer patient receiving a BEC treatment for his chemotherapy. As harrowing as the side effects of the treatment on his mind and body were, Warren had coped as best as he could, but now the side effects have become unmanageable. He's more concerned with making sure his brother and the rest of his family aren't concerned with his problems. ** The role of Warren will have to have their head shaved on set or, if bald already, will be fitted for a wig** |
