We are looking for a "grandma" as a customer for a commercial production.
How to apply:
Please send us an e-casting video.
It's also fine for us if you film the application at home! It's easier for you and we're only interested in seeing how you play and how you solve the task. The trappings don't matter now!
Deadline for your e-casting: Friday, 30.01.2026 at the latest
Important: No reimbursement of travel expenses, ideally you should come from southern Germany
What you bring
Appearance "grandma", best ager
A relaxed, natural demeanor
Acting experience is a plus, but not mandatory
Reliability and a desire for a set atmosphere
E-casting:
Short personal introduction
Please say into the camera or
Your name,
Your age
And your hobbies
Previous experience in front of the camera (if any)
Please say everything once into the camera so that we can see your face close.
Then please do a second run-through in which we see you completely (from head to toe).
(you can simply speak the same text again)
After that, please play the following scenes:
Imagine you are in a toy store.
Unusual things are happening in the toy store.
(later on, we will animate these magical things, so we will add them after the shoot - that's why you have to imagine them while playing).
What you play:
Scene 1: You walk around between the shelves and look around.
Then you take a package/box from the shelf and open it. Inside the box is something really cool, like a bright light that only you can see. But we want to see your reaction and your facial expression when this happens.
Scene 2: You are standing there normally. Suddenly, something magical appears above you. You look up and are delighted.
Scene 3: You move around the store like a robot.
Scene 4: Something swirls around right in front of you (imagine a small butterfly or something similar), you watch it and start to smile.
Very important: Please only speak during the introduction at the beginning!
Everything else - the play scenes - are completely without speech!
The feelings - e.g. your astonishment or your joy - should only be told through your face (facial expressions), your gestures and body language.
Totally without text. (please do not speak quietly either)
