Child Actor/Actress (m/f/d) for an ongoing social media production by a food brand

THE ROLE

He plays the grandson of a grandmother who is always cooking for him. Short, humorous scenes from everyday life: He’s hungry, his lunch has fallen on the floor, he wants ice cream and gets buckwheat instead. The videos are harmless, family-friendly, and rely on situational comedy.

We always film with an adult actress who plays the grandmother.

WHAT WE FILM

Short videos for Instagram and TikTok, usually 15 to 60 seconds long. Kitchen scenes, a few outdoor shots, a scene at a supermarket checkout. There are no long lines to memorize—we work with bullet points, and much of it happens spontaneously.

HOW OFTEN AND WHERE

One to two shooting days per month, half a day each. Studio in Cologne, occasionally on location in the Cologne area. Appointments scheduled with at least one week’s notice.

• Boy between the ages of 9 and 12

• He has to be interested in this himself—not just his parents

• He feels comfortable in front of the camera and isn’t shy when adults are around him

• He can follow simple instructions and speak a few sentences on his own

• Lives in Cologne or the surrounding area

• He enjoys eating and has no food intolerances—he actually eats in almost every video (dumplings, blini, buckwheat, ice cream)

Application through parents

NOT REQUIRED

• Acting training or agency representation
