| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| SOC | Mom | Female 35 - 40 Years old |
Description This is a non-speaking role. Mom is healthy, happy and expressive. She is average height and build. She has a friendly smile and a worm disposition that shows when she interacts with her family. She’s particular and likes her house to be clean and well kept. Her family’s comfort and safety is her top priority. She has a serious side, but can let her guard down, when the time is right. All ethnicities are welcome. Self-tape instructions: (Three takes each, all non-verbal please. Preference is for the whole self-tape be a minute or less. Welcome to use stand-ins to play off if that helps.) 1. Your teenage daughter is performing a standing yoga pose while you vacuum nearby, and you decide to try and put her off, playfully vacuuming around her. She rolls her eyes at you, and you leave her be. Two variations, please keep both relatively light / family oriented. 2. You approach your husband at the stove to ask him what's for dinner and realize he's making a huge mess of frying a fish, oil spitting everywhere. You indicate to a kitchen towel, and he starts cleaning. Two variations, but again nothing too angry. Feel free to include how you'd react in real life. | ||

| SOC | Dad | Male 35 - 40 Years old |
Description This is a non-speaking role. Dad is always willing to help out around the house while making sure to do things the way his wife likes them done. He’s healthy and can express himself well, without words. He’s subtle and not overly comedic, but should understand comedic timing. All ethnicities are welcome. Self-tape instructions: (Three takes each, all non-verbal please. Preference is for the whole self-tape be a minute or less. Welcome to use stand-ins to play off if that helps.) You're frying a big fish in a pan on the stove for dinner when your wife looks in, and sees all the mess you're making, oil spitting everywhere. Your smile drops, you put down the pan, grab a kitchen towel and start cleaning. Three variations (nothing too fearful, the commercial is light / family oriented) - please include one that is how you'd react in real life. | ||
| Role type | Role | Gender & Age range |
| SOC | Daughter | Female 12 - 16 Years old |
Description This is a non-speaking role. Daughter is is as book smart as she is quick-witted. She’s very helpful around the house and loves taking care of her little brother. When her head isn’t buried in a book, she’s either doing yoga in the living room or searching through her Dad’s record collection. All ethnicities are welcome. Self-tape instructions: (Three takes each, all non-verbal please. Preference is for the whole self-tape be a minute or less. Welcome to use stand-ins to play off if that helps.) You're standing in a yoga pose (don't worry about accuracy for now), trying to concentrate, when your mom starts vacuuming around you playfully. She leaves you alone, and you try and regain your composure. One cheerful / loving reaction, one a little more annoyed - not angry, more a 'really?' expression. Last take - how you would react in real life. Be yourself! | ||

| SOC | TODDLER | Male 2 - 4 Years old |
Description This is a non-speaking role. Toddler is a chip off the old block. He mimics everything his Dad does. Always smiling and often carting around a full diaper, Toddler is happiest when he’s sitting in his highchair sneaking food to his dog. All ethnicities are welcome. Self-tape instructions: (2 or 3 takes each, all non-verbal please. Preference is for the whole self-tape be a minute or less. Welcome to use stand-ins to play off if that helps.) You're building up toy blocks to make a tower, and decide they need to be cleaned! So you pick up a cloth, and begin to carefully clean the blocks, making sure they don't fall over. | ||
