Actor (m/f) to play an “authentic craftsman” in an industrial promotional film

For an international corporate image film for a leading manufacturer of vehicle interiors, we are producing an approximately 90-second film for trade shows, online, and social media.

The film features real craftsmen in their day-to-day work—calm, precise, and authentic. The focus is not on staged models, but on authentic personalities with genuine craftsmanship.

We tell the story visually, without spoken dialogue. The impact comes solely from behavior, body language, and precise work processes. Basic knowledge of how to use hand tools is a plus.

We are looking for three real tradespeople:

• Electrician

• Service Technician

• Plumber

Please send us a short self-tape (approx. 1–2 minutes):

1. Brief introduction

   • Name, age, place of residence

2. Full-body shot

   • once from the front

   • one shot from the left side

   • one shot from the right side

   • one shot from behind

3. Hands in focus

   • Show both hands separately

   • Palms + backs of hands

   • Short close-up of the hands (important for macro shots in the film)

Tradesman (electrician / service technician / plumber)

Gender: male

Age: 35–55 years

Type: down-to-earth, credible, showing the reality of the work

Hands:
Very important for the film:

• strong, authentic working-class hands

• suitable for extreme close-ups (macro)

• well-groomed, but with character

Role:
You will be shown in the film performing focused work (grasping tools, assembling, inspecting). No dialogue
