Houston Community College Commercial Casting Call Information
This requires an audition. Auditions will be invitation only and take place on Wednesday, July 10, 2013. Unfortunately, due to the volume of submissions we expect and the limited time we have to audition on Wednesday, they will not be able to see everyone who submits.
If selected, shoots dates for the commercials are July 21-22-23. Each character will be needed multiple days, but each day will be short. The female character must also be available July 17.
We need the following principal roles cast for the television spots:
NOTE: To be considered, you must be physically able to jump a short distance as the spots involve the characters making a small leap through a doorway. From the producer’s notes: “The TV principals must be able to simulate the ‘jumping through the doorway’ scene. They should jump off a small platform and they must be able to land and touch down with their hand before running a few steps. The ‘land/touch hand to floor’ is an important element as it keys a transition in the commercial.

Our new dad is twenty something and looking for a new adventure and lucrative way to support his young family. He is strong and fit (but still an average man) and his style has an inner-city vibe. He is not afraid of hard work and starting at the bottom. He is also very motivated to learn and isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty.

Our drafting student is a recent high school graduate who is interested in a career in urban development. She has always done well in math and was referred to as creative kid growing up. Her flair for design and independent spirit is reflected in her personal style— she has a refined and sophisticated look that is uniquely bold, colorful and youthful— a little quirky but not kooky. She is confident in her talents and can hold her own in a male-dominated field.
Video Gamer:
PRINCIPAL: GAMER, MALE, 18-22, ethnicity open
DATES NEEDED: two days between JULY 21-23 for TV shoot
PAID: $1000 total for two shoot days
Our game designer student is a recent high school graduate who loves all things
technology. He has always been the first one to have the latest gadget and in school his notebooks were covered in elaborate sketches of fantastical characters. Although he spends much of his time playing video games with friends, he is not someone you would consider a typical cyber nerd—more of a hip tech geek with an urban edge.
