Best Ager Talent (f/d) for a Hearing Technology Video Shoot

We're looking for a warm, friendly on-camera talent—a woman aged around 50–60—to star in short campaign videos about hearing technology. Each video is about one minute long and in English. The shoot will take place over three days, November 3–5, 2026, in and around Berlin. (We’re casting the male lead in a separate listing.)

You’ll play the lead in scripted, everyday listening moments: at home, at an outdoor lunch with friends, and on an evening out. The videos combine direct-to-camera segments, mood shots, B-roll, and voice-over. They are part of Sonova’s global digital campaigns and will run across multiple markets.

Timeline

• Fri, October 23, 2026: applications close

• October 26–27: video calls and selection

• October 28–30: script review and possible device try-on at our office

• November 3–5: shoot days in Berlin

• Early 2027: videos go live

Fee

€200–400 per shoot day (depending on experience), plus a separate usage buy-out agreed upon with the selected talent.
