Seeking Talent for Upcoming Beverage Project – Richmond VA – NU – 4/26

NEW PROJECT JUST IN!  SELF TAPE IS REQUIRED FOR SUBMISSION.  

Our client is seeking the following talent for an upcoming project filming in Richmond VA on 4/26.  This is a nonunion project.  Talent will be unrecognizable in the final project.  This is for an alcoholic beverage company so please make sure you are comfortable with that reference (no drinking is required in this project).  Here are the details:

HAND/ARM MODELS

• (1 hero / 3-5 support) 
• Open ethnicity and gender
• For all arms, weʼre looking for a diverse range of race, body type, and age. Multiple options will help us mix and match to ensure inclusivity. Please no nail art; weʼre looking for more natural hands here.
• They should be adept at holding the can in various poses, cracking cans, pouring ingredients, etc. Everyone should also be OK with a light application of grease or oil, should we need their arms to shine on camera against our dark set. 

HERO ARMS –

• For our hero talent set of arms, weʼre looking for muscular, freedom-fighter-esque limbs. Over 25 and likely male, but open to anyone who fits the description. Theyʼre obviously strong, but not over the top. They have a gruff look to them, not too delicate or clean in an unmarked sense. Body hair is cool.
• Tattoos are also cool unless they have noticeable words or brand logos (if we are showing the tattoos, they will need to be released by the artist). 

SUPPORT ARMS –

• For our support arms talent, we want a mix of characters to help make it look like as many different people as possible in edit. Hereʼs what weʼre looking for…. Clean, delicate arms with a graceful air to them. If our hero arms are larger and muscular, maybe these ones are noticeably smaller. Super strong bodybuilder arms; since our hero wonʼt be over the top, it could be fun to cast someone who is for one of our support sets. Elderly arms; someone clearly older but still just as capable of handing the can. Super hairy; the wolf-ier the better.

Story Line: We are creating a Flash Mob Dance Scene in a Park with everyday types of park goers – All Sizes and Shapes Wanted. You should be a great dancer and you should be able to learn and adapt quickly to choreography and a choreographer’s input. The look and vibe is Happy & Natural making you want to join in with them. You can be formally trained but we don’t want the dancing to appear overtly rigid or formal like ballet. Show as much personality as you can (fun, funny, character, even use a prop if necessary) for your freestyle. 

This is an ensemble dance, so familiarity with moving in sync with other dancers is a plus. Below is a link of a 4-minute video from our choreographer Carlos going through the dance steps. The actual finished commercial is only 15 seconds long so do your best to copy the choreography. They are considering making the final choreography not as elaborate as this. Do your best to nail the 15 Seconds. Watch & Practice.
