Showtime’s “The Chi” Season 6 Kids Casting Call

RUSH CASTING CALL!!! – NON-UNION
PROJECT: THE CHI – SEASON 6
ROLE: AFRICAN AMERICAN MALE TWINS (AGE 1 – 4 YEARS OLD)
RATE: $250/4
COVID & FILMING DATES: TBD BUT ASAP
 
LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO CAN PLAY THE FOLLOWING:
We are looking for real-life African American male twins to play a recurring role of the baby of a series-regular couple.
 
We also want to make sure that the children have the correct version of the work permit – a sample is pictured in this post. If they do not yet have work permits, please check our minors registration link on our website (link below by “minors register”) for more information. If you need help, please let us know so we can make it happen ASAP, as the role is meant to be cast ASAP.
 
To be considered, your child must have a POP Profile. To create a profile, click the following link and then follow the instructions on sending the submission e-mail:
If you already have a POP profile, the parent may continue with the submission email. Make sure that your child’s photos and sizes are up-to-date before submitting it.
 
 
General Information regarding our Minors Portal for POP:
 
The process is slightly different – you will need to visit our website @ www.4starcasting.com to upload your child’s information to the minors’ POP portal.
You will need a separate, unique email for your children (if you, the parent, are registered on our Adult POP portal, it must be a different email). Each and every child must have his or her own email address that will link to his or her own profile.
You can find the paperwork required, including the Parent/Legal Guardian Data Collection Parental Verification and Consent affidavit (which is a new legal document, and not the parental form required to obtain the work permit), in the paperwork for minors on our website. The parent affidavit is required for all children 17 and under. 18 and older should use the adult POP portal. The PARENT AFFIDAVIT MUST be uploaded as a pdf. We fixed the problem with downloading the folder.
You must also upload each child’s work permit as jpeg or png – which should be named with your child’s first and last name, name of the employer listed on the work permit, and the date of issue of the work permit (current and valid, it expires one year from issue date).
 
While we can accept Empire Casting Co Payroll work permits on some projects, we can not on all, so we suggest uploading the 4 Star Casting work permit over others. We also accept talent agency work permits such as Lily’s, Shirley Hamilton, DeStanti, etc.
The work permit MUST be uploaded as jpg or png.
 
If you do not upload the forms (work permit, proof of age and parent affidavit) in the required format, then your child’s profile will hover in an uncompleted, pending application. If you use a false document to upload and/or an expired work permit, upon our review we will delete the document and/or work permit, and make the account inactive until the proper documents are sent to us and verified.
 
If you are having issues – send child(ren)’s name and the email you used to create the profile(s) in an email to either the show you are trying to submit your child for and/or to [email protected] with the subject line: MINORS’ PORTAL UPLOAD ISSUES. We can not look up or help without the information requested.
 
If your child’s information changes, i.e. look, height and weight, measurements, make sure to log on the computer and update the sizes.
