Casting call.
I have to cast an independent film, this requires asking female friends for both head shots and clothes sizes.
This is a far as I know a death sentence.
Also the main girl I am asking is my main crush.... The real down side is I have to let her know I really need that info so that we can finish casting.

I just need the right words to say "send the damn headshot already, I am not asking as a crush but to get some work done".

just don't be fucking weird and ask her already so you can finish casting

Horror, independent, and short.
Really just the local special effects guys playing with some toys.

Guns, smoke bombs or smoke generators, maybe small squibs. Maybe some lights effects.

Fuck it.
I asked one in person, is it ok to just say "I really do need that pic / info, could you send it over?"

yes that is fine, reiterate that you need it to move the casting along and give her a deadline

I hate to ever be pushy but I think I need to lay down a time line.

I also went ahead and asked a second person. I can't look like a dummy just because I am waiting on someone else.
It's shitty because I know "let me get a pic of you" isn't the most comfortable thing but the context is obvious and I have to get on with things. Also she is really blond and honestly not perfect because of that.
I hate it.

Update.
No responses.
Turns out asking girls questionable things isnt good for social good graces.

Mark down two people I'll never speak to again.

a headshot for a casting isnt questionable, you are just dealing with people that dont care

I am dealing with young ladies. they assume everything is questionable until proven otherwise.
I dont find asking to be strange at all, but I am aware they might think its strange.
