Job description

Become part of an immersive fantasy gaming world.

For an exhibition booth at Gamescom in Cologne, we are looking for an actor/character performer to portray a powerful hero with a strong warrior presence.

This role has only a few lines of dialogue, but it requires a strong physical and cinematic presence. The performer will appear in full costume, move through the booth area, stay in character, pose for photos with visitors, and help bring an immersive fantasy world to life.

The character exudes a strong yet calm, serious, and protective energy. We are looking for someone who is tall, broad-shouldered, and physically strong, ideally with a short beard and willing to adapt his hairstyle for the role during the project week. The performer should have the discipline and confidence to maintain a character role for several hours in a live booth environment.

Full availability from August 24 to 30 is required.


Role / Requirements profile

Acting experience is required for this role.

We are looking for a male-presenting actor/performer with a strong physical presence—ideally tall, broad-shouldered, or muscular—and with a calm, mature energy. The role is suitable for someone whose profile, presence, and acting style naturally align with the character.

The visual direction is inspired by a fantasy world with Middle Eastern influences. Applications are welcome from all backgrounds. What matters most is that the performer’s presence, energy, and acting style fit the character.

Please note that applicants must be able to issue a valid invoice for this position.

Please include the following in your application:

- Resume or short profile
- 4–5 recent photos
- Height, weight, and clothing sizes
- Details about your acting experience
- Availability for all days from August 24 through 30
- Links to a showreel or acting video, if available
- Link to your Instagram account

Optional: Please also send a short introductory video and a 30- to 60-second character or movement video so we can get a better sense of your presence, body language, and energy.
