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 an agile hero character with expressive, playful, and cinematic energy.

This role requires strong acting skills, physical expression, and confidence in front of an audience. The performer will appear in full costume, move through the booth area, stay in character, pose for photos with visitors, and help create immersive moments with the audience.

The character is fast, energetic, and light on their feet. We are looking for someone with a strong presence, high energy, and the confidence to interact with visitors in an open and natural way. The performer should not be shy and should be able to bring the character to life through movement, facial expressions, and body language. A background in acrobatics, dance, parkour, or movement is optional but a strong plus.

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 lean or athletic build, strong movement, expressive body language, and confidence in live interaction. The role is suitable for someone whose profile, presence, and acting style align naturally with a quick, agile, and charismatic character.

The visual direction is inspired by a fantasy world with Middle Eastern influences. We are looking for someone whose appearance, presence, and energy align naturally with this character direction.

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, clothing sizes, and relevant movement skills
• Details about your acting experience
• Availability for all days from August 24 to 30
• Links to a showreel or acting videos, 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 movement, body language, and energy.
