A new alcohol campaign is now casting. Auditions are being held for male models and actors who have great comedic timing. While comedy experience is a must, improv is a plus! This sounds like it will be a really fun opportunity. The comedic chemistry between the two below roles is paramount. They are a duo and they need to have good vibes with each other. Imagine John C. Reilly and Will Ferrell in Step Brothers or Arnold and Danny Devito in Twins. Please let us know if you are a real comedy duo who works together. These characters are real comedic types but should not be played like animations or caricatures.
