Father-and-Son Duo (m/d) for Content in the “Learning” Category

We’re looking for you—or rather, all of you! 🎬

Are you a dad with a son between the ages of 11 and 14? Do you enjoy being in front of the camera together and want to create something as a team? Then you’re probably exactly who we’re looking for.

For a new video, we’re looking for a father-son duo to shoot a clip for us as a self-produced video—meaning, just relax at home and film it with your phone; no big on-location shoot, no crew.

What’s the story about?
The video centers on an emotional, acted scene: It’s about frustration and pressure while studying—including a confrontational situation (loud arguments and “yelling” are part of it), which ultimately resolves itself and takes a positive turn. The whole thing is acting, inspired by a well-known, very emotional TV commercial. It’s important to us that you both feel comfortable with it and have fun acting.

We’ll provide you with a clear briefing and the finished script—so you don’t have to come up with anything on your own; you’ll simply follow our guidelines.

What you’ll be filming:
Several short clips plus a few B-roll shots. Everything can be done with a smartphone; we’ll give you detailed instructions.

Who are we?
sofatutor is one of the most comprehensive digital learning platforms in the German-speaking world. Our goal: to make learning simple, effective, and accessible anywhere—for students, parents, and teachers.

Does this sound like you?
Then get in touch with a brief introduction about both of you. We look forward to hearing from you!

Here’s what you should bring:

• Father + son aged 11–14

• A sense of fun and openness to acting in scenes that may sometimes be loud or confrontational (both must be comfortable with this)

• A smartphone with a good camera for self-filming

• A quiet, well-lit spot at home (daylight is usually sufficient)

• If necessary, Lavalier microphones

• Reliability in following the briefing and on-time delivery of the footage

• German at a native level
