STORYLINE BREAKDOWN
Single-performer, direct-to-camera promotional piece. 60 seconds. One location, no scene changes.
The Kid Host opens with a high-energy attention-grab directed straight at the viewer ("Hey. Stop what you're doing."), then reveals the hook — this year, the student watching is going to run a real pizza business. The host walks through the STEMterprise program beat by beat: tracing ingredients to an Ontario farm, learning about agricultural drone technology, building a model of the digestive system, running surveys and collecting data, designing packaging and a marketing campaign, and culminating in a full business pitch showcase. Tone builds from cool/confident at the top to genuinely excited by the close. Ends on a punchy three-line tagline. No wardrobe changes, no other cast, no stunt work.

ROLE: KID HOST
Age: 10–12 | Any gender | Any ethnicity | Non-union
Description:
Seeking a confident, camera-natural kid host for a 60-second educational promo video produced by Skylight Visual Media for Grain Farmers of Ontario. The program (STEMterprise) has Grade 5 students running their own pizza businesses — and this kid introduces it direct-to-camera with energy and swagger.
14 lines of scripted dialogue. Fast, punchy delivery. No theatrical performance — we want natural charisma, not a school play voice. Ability to take direction and memorize short scripted lines is essential. Prior on-camera experience preferred but not required if the confidence is there.
