Looking to hire character actor for a video project

IDMP is looking to hire a character actor to appear in a video project we’re shooting for a client.

Basic requirements: male 28 – 40 years old. The look we’re after is “suburban dad.” Must be able to pull start a lawnmower and willing to jump into a heated pool in shorts. This is a non-speaking role but the actor must be willing and able to yell loudly a couple times.

If you’re interested in making a couple hundred bucks for a single days work… send me an email with a couple photos of yourself to [email protected]

If you know someone that lives in the metro area that might be interested please pass them a link to this post.

PS – this is no joke. We’re going to shoot this project in the next week and we need to find someone with the right look. Figured it would likely be more productive to reach out here first than go through the pain and anguish associated with Craigslist.

since it’s illegal to discriminate on the basis of age, I’m thinking BK is your man,,,,,,,

Check!
Check!
And those are all things I’ve done this week, anyways.

Would this be during a weekday?

We’d prefer a weekday, yes. Send me some pics!

Careful, you might want to specify what type of pictures you’re looking for. You don’t want any pictures of BK in a bikini…or do you?…

I knew this dad bod would come in handy someday!

Thanks a lot James. I was feeling pretty good about myself today until realizing I’m too old to try out for the part……

But so are you!

To those that have sent pics and expressed interest, I thank you! This is going to be a fun project. We’re going to let responses come in over the weekend and make a casting decision on Monday.

If you are looking for professsionals call Brave New Workshop. We’ve used them for some company events and videos and they are pro’s. Probably more expensive than BK or Suzuki but you get what you pay for….

Not needed for this project. We’re very familiar with the various casting agencies in the metro area but appreciate the suggestion.

Did you want pics sent privately or will this suffice?

Well then….shirts on or off in the pool scene? I meet all the criteria and have a killer farmers tan I’d love to show off!

Doubt BK can pull start a lawnmower.

And CaptainMusky, when did you take that picture of BK?

Sweet I am applying!
I knew switching to miller lite would create the perfect dad bod lol.

Considering some of the above responses,,,,,,,,,,You may have been overly optimistic.

I can do mean and loud ,even scary. Long white Santa beard,. 60 years of age. I swim!

Well if CapitanMusky pic is a no and catmando’s description is out, then with me being 4 driving hours South I’m out as well, Dammm I thought this was going to be my ticket!

I know I’m a bit out of the age range so I would be willing to pay you $200.

NOBODY can start a lawnmower better than me!

You clicked on it?? Now you’re gonna get warts on your fingers and whatever else you touch??

HEY !! while you are at it,why not start a weekly tech article where we tear down and rebuild a forum members carb( s ),water pump,injectors,air compressor,tune a ice auger,learn how to read spark plugs,change out filters and oil,replace a prop and discuss all sorts of neat things.

I might know a guy who could do that,and of course we would have to have Dean,Bk,and Fellegy with their segments tossed into the mix,its all outdoors related ya know !!

This must be a sign from god!

1. Do lawn care for a living
2. Been perfecting the dad bod by keeping to a strict fast food diet
3. Won the belly flop and cannon ball contest last week at the resort pool

Heck i’d even consider just spending a day in the boat learning some new tricks and techniques for payment!

Well James Holst,
I at least hope you find something positive from all this Tom Foolishness that has transpired.

Sorry guys I stopped selling my body hours ago.
