Hi All
This is a VERY unusual brief indeed and will require you to read the details carefully about what we’re looking for here but to summarise – We need actors who are willing to film themselves over the next few days doing the following scenarios on a beach! Essentially their audition tape, if chosen, would then be the footage used in the advert and they will be paid their BSF and BUYOUT accordingly to use that footage. So it is important that you film clearly and carefully.
** WE NEED TALENT WHO ARE WILLING TO FILM THIS AT THE BEACH**
The deadline for the tape is Monday 9am
Please email to: casting@lacara.co.uk via we transfer (free file sharing platform) www.wetransfer.com
Please ensure that you label your file with your name and email address
Please ensure you tell us the role that you are filming for (eg ice cream fail) along with names and ages of those in video and also include name and contact number. Without this information added to the we transfer note, the file will not be looked at.
No phone calls please.
Ice Cream Fail | Friends on a Beach (Male, 17–45 years)
We see a man sharing their ice cream cone in true IG / LIVE artistic fashion. Then they drop it… and it gets covered in sand. The camera pans to their mate laughing their butt off.
Dance | Girl and Nan (Female, 16–99 years)
A girl is doing a wavy dance with her arms (like one we might see on TikTok) on the beach. We then see that her grandma is also doing the same dance next to her. Girl says “Grandma stop!” Grandma says “I can’t!”
Buried Head in Sand | Kid (Female, Male, 5–16 years)
We see a kid buried in the sand with their head poking out. Teasing from their family intensifies as we watch. They start tickling his face, and eventually pour a bucket of water on his head.
Perspective | Young Woman (Any gender, 18–30 years
Through our POV, a young woman looks like she’s dancing on a castle made of sand. On its own it’s fun to watch, but then someone comes and grabs the shovel and she reacts with a “heyyyyy?” and you hear laughing in the background.
Creativity | Kid (Any gender, Any playing age
We see a kid who has buried themselves in the sand and made a creative, cool mermaid body for themselves. One of their parents is filming it and says “That looks amazinggggg!” and sounds really proud
Sunscrean | Boyfriend or Gilfriend/Partner (Any gender, 20–99 years)
We watch someone’s partner as they kindly put suncream on their back. Instead of rubbing it in, they write the phrase “HOT STUFF”. The person is sleeping so the word will be burned in.
Surf | Mum (Any gender, 35–45 years)
We see a mum manage to stand up on a surfboard for the first time and let out a woo! of celebration. Then she wobbles and falls off the surfboard.
Lemonade Challenge | 2 female Friends (Female, 25–35 years)
We see two friends doing the Wine Challenge on the beach (with lemonade!) and falling over each other and laughing. We like using slightly older TikTok trends as they would’ve had mass traction and some nostalgic recall.
