Making Movies with Lyssa Roberts – The Worker’s Union #indiefilm
Lyssa Roberts plays Mariah, a kindhearted city girl who depends on public transportation to get to her job in the short film, “Abyss.”
Lyssa was cast for this role because she fit the majority of what I had in mind while writing the screenplay. Her audition footage also received high remarks from members of the casting team who reviewed all of the actors and actresses interested in being a part of this movie.
She shares screen time with Mark Johnson, who plays Manny and is involved in a decision that sends Rodney Benson’s character over the edge. Here are some comments that a few casting team members had to say about Lyssa’s audition…
“She gave the role a bit more spunk” and “Plays the character smart. Great departure from the rest”
We shall find out if viewers agree, when “Abyss” is ready for its movie premiere!
