Thank you for taking the time to apply to our TVC Casting Call.
We are looking for KIDS, TEENS & ADULTS FROM RURAL VICTORIA to feature in an Advertising Christmas Campaign.
At this early stage all information on the project is confidential. Script and more details on the project will be released if you are shortlisted.
Each person must complete ALL steps - we cannot submit you for the job without these steps completed. One form per person.
Your audition video/s will then be presented to the director and from there they will make a shortlist.
NHC will be in touch to let you know if you have been shortlisted or not by Wednesday 25 September.
If shortlisted, you may be asked to attend a call back audition to meet the Director in our studio in Footscray on Thursday 26 or Monday 30 September (after school hours will apply for kids) or if a callback is not necessary, then we will put you on hold for the production dates.
If you are shortlisted, we will send through the job information which will outline all details on the campaign including product / media buy / production dates etc.
Watch the audition direction videos below and once you have recorded your videos, come back to this application and complete the form.
ALL ROLES:
Chat to Camera - tell us where you live and how you celebrate Christmas. We would love to know a little bit about you. For the Grandma's - can you drive a tractor?
KIDS:
1. Direct Dad on where you want the hay bales to be. We want to make a HUGE SIGN for Santa, using the hay bales. It has to be big enough that he seems from the sky above. Dad makes some mistakes and you need to correct him.
ADULTS & TEENS:
1. Walk outside into your backyard with a plate of food. You're greeting extended family members. Put the track of food down on the table and start serving yourself. We want to be warm and friendly.
GRANDMA:
Scene 1 - SHOOT OUTSIDE
PROPS: Tractor – only if you have access to one!
We want to see you driving the tractor if you have access to one.
If you don’t have access to one then please just do Scene 2. Thank you
Scene 2 - SHOOT OUTSIDE
Seated, like you’re in the driver’s seat of a tractor. There is a CB radio attached to the tractor.
You hear your Grand kid calling you on the CB. You stop what you’re doing and we want to see you have an improv with your grand kid. Let’s call them Sophie.
Something like:
‘Hi Soph’
‘Sorry love, what was that?’
A look of confusion starts to form on your face. You’re not sure if you’re hearing her correctly. She wants some help with … what??
A smile starts to grow. This could be fun.
‘Ok love. I’ll be there soon’
Upload field at the bottom of the form. Thanks so much, and we look forward to seeing your auditions.
