Husband
Comedy experience is a must. All ethnicities. The husband’s character is calm at first, but will build up to lively, enthusiastic, and excited. There will be a quick “happy dance” improv moment at the end, so we need someone with mobility. This character will also be very expressive in the effort to portray humour, so a range of facial expressions is a must. Rate of Pay: $1500/Day

Comedy experience is a must. All ethnicities. This role is French. We will require speaking French (Quebec French accent). The husband’s character is calm at first, but will build up to lively, enthusiastic, and excited. There will be a quick “happy dance” improv moment at the end, so we need someone with mobility. This character will also be very expressive in the effort to portray humour, so a range of facial expressions is a must. Rate of Pay: $1500/Day
Wife
This is a non speaking role. Preference will be given to those with experience in comedy. All ethnicities woman may apply. The wife’s character is calm at first, but will build up to lively and excited. Since this role is non-speaking, the actor will need to be reactive to the main role (an overly excited Husband character) through emotion, so a range of facial expressions is a must. Rate of Pay: $500/Day NON SPEAKING for both French & English Versions of the commercial.
Mel
Note that we are exploring the use of motion capture for this role. We will film the performance on a greenscreen, but we may end up using the actor's voice and movements on an animated character. MEL is a dynamic and intelligent scientist. She is the mission control commander for the exoplanet exploration mission and the guide for the viewer of the video. She brings the experience to life as she comes along on the journey as both a voice in the viewers ear and a holographic projection. She is fun, excited and full of life while also being a professional and dedicated scientist.

Jay
Determined, he's willing to endure for the good he pursues, and the only thing that keeps him sane in life is his love of acting. But there are times when he is a bit self-centered, and when he is busying himself with his dreams, he tends to neglect those who really care about him and are supporting him silently. Must speak Mandarin, northern accent is preferred.
Grandpa
Open-minded, he and Jay share the same perspective on dreams. Maybe it's because Grandpa also left his home town and came to Beijing alone when he was young, working hard for that dream in his heart. Must speak Mandarin, northern accent is preferred.
