Heavy Rain: The Casting

DirectorDavid Cage

5 min

A short tech demo and short film created by Quantic Dream to test the rendering engine for Heavy Rain. In a white audition room, 24-year-old amateur actress Mary Smith performs a dramatic monologue for an off-screen director (voiced by David Cage), her performance unfolding in a virtual kitchen and showcasing her emotional range. When the audition ends, the director dismisses her with a blunt verdict: she is too tall for the part. First shown at E3 in 2006, the piece was designed to showcase the studio's virtual acting and real-time rendering technology.
