A cell phone camera is fine. Landscape orientation, good lighting, no editing.
A note in advance:
We regularly receive 50+ applications for ads like this. We review every single one—that takes time, both yours and ours. So let’s be very clear: Please only apply if you’re 100% convinced that you can play this role. Not “might work.” Not “I’ve never done this before, but I’ll give it a try.” If you watch the self-tape and aren’t convinced yourself—then neither are we.
Unfortunately, we can’t consider you without a self-tape.

You’re standing in front of the rotisserie as a kebab vendor, speaking directly into the camera. Short sentences, sharp timing, a wink. At the end, you open a pizza box and present the product. The commercial thrives on one thing alone: your ability to embody the role. No reciting lines, no amateur acting. We’re looking for someone who can pull off the kebab guy.

Who We’re Looking For

• Male, approx. [35–50], authentically suited for the role

• Proven acting experience (advertising, film, stage)

• Confident speaking directly to the camera

• Comedic timing—the punchline either lands or it doesn’t

• Accent-free German or with a slight accent, clear articulation

• Available on August 27–28 in Hamburg

• On-site in Hamburg or able to travel independently
