Actors (m/f/d) for a fragrance brand's campaign

For a social media advertising campaign centered on our fragrances, we are looking for several actors for a professional video shoot in the Cologne/Düsseldorf area.

The creative setup is modeled after a video podcast: Two or more people sit across from each other in an authentic podcast setting and chat or discuss topics with one another.

There are different briefings, topics, and conversation scenarios for each individual video. Topics include fragrances, fragrance twins, value for money, and the question of why high-quality fragrance alternatives can compete with well-known fragrances.

It’s important to us that the conversations don’t come across as traditional advertising, but rather as a genuine, spontaneous podcast discussion. The actors each receive a briefing and embody different viewpoints, opinions, and situations.

The shoot produces several short video sequences, which are then used as ads on social media.

Filming location: Cologne/Düsseldorf area
Format: Video podcast / social media ads
Topic: Perfume, scents & Scent Twins
Briefings & Specific Scenes: Provided prior to filming

We are looking for outgoing, authentic, and camera-ready actors who feel comfortable in conversational situations and can credibly portray a variety of viewpoints.

The following are particularly important to us:

• Natural and authentic acting

• Very good, fluent German

• Confident and likable presence on camera

• The ability to react spontaneously and credibly to conversation partners

• Good facial expressions, gestures, and expressiveness

• The ability to naturally incorporate briefings and predefined arguments into a conversation

• No exaggerated “advertising-style acting”—the conversation should come across as a real podcast

• Reliability and professional collaboration on set

Previous experience in front of the camera or acting experience is a plus.

If possible, please include recent photos as well as a short introductory video, showreel, or acting reel with your application.
