Teen lead role (f/d) for a scenic commercial

We are looking for an open, authentic and expressive teenage girl aged 13 to 16 for the lead role in a high-quality commercial for a non-profit, social organization in Thuringia.

The commercial tells the life story of a 35-year-old woman in retrospect. Her path through life has always been shaped by the influence of various social and charitable organizations, which has helped her to steer her life in the right direction.

The main role of the film is played by 3 performers of different ages. A little girl of kindergarten age, a teenager aged 13-16, and an adult woman aged 28-35.

These roles are also written out. If there is a younger sister aged 5 - 7, you are welcome to apply together.

Application

For the first selection we ask for the following documents:

• A recent portrait photo of the child

• A short introduction video (max. 1 minute)

• A short list of references (filming experience, acting training, etc.)

• If available: Videos of previous projects

The casting takes place online (eCasting). It is primarily about getting to know the child and the parents with the director. 

We are looking forward to strong, open and curious children who would like to become part of a special commercial.
