Child model and actor auditions are now being held for a set of vocabulary videos! Your adorable talented kids have the chance to star in a set of upcoming paid video shoots that will be filming in Austin, Texas. Casting directors are seeking high-energy child actors who are ages 8-11 years old with positive attitudes and a passion for learning. If this sounds like the perfect job for your child model or actor, check out the casting call below. LUMI Learning is an education startup that makes vocabulary videos. Producers are moving forward with a run of 1000 five-minute, live action videos and need a diverse cast of child actors to help present and teach their wordsEnunciating well and being enthusiastic are key to becoming an Actor/Teacher for LUMI Learning.
A link to a previous video is right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AU9HNPRK5hE Parents who would like to submit their kids can send in an audition video following the script below. Remember to enunciate well (speak clearly):
“Hello, my name is (first name) and I am from (home town and state). Today, I will be teaching you the word, drink.’ Drink means to swallow liquid. I like to drink ______ because _______. Drink is spelled d-r-i-n-k. The /ink/ sound is formed by i-n-k.”
*Hint, many kids have trouble saying “is formed by.” Practice this and show us you can say it clearly in your audition video! If you can enunciate well, it’s far more likely you will be invited for an in-person audition.
