Four Actors Needed for THE RATHER UNFORTUNATE Music Video

MISC_Casting call2My name is Courtney Lamb and I am the manager for the up and coming Pop Punk band, The Rather Unfortunate, and I am looking for 4 actors (2 male and 2 female) who would like to volunteer their services for a music video. I am looking for actors to play teenagers in the 2000’s walking down the street on their way to a concert with our main character. As well as rocking out to the band once they make it to the concert. Each friend has their own identity and quirks and will require slight improv but overall it is a very simple concept. We are looking to shoot 1-2 days in December but I need confirmation by mid November. While this is not a paid gig, we will compensate with social media tags on all posts of the video for all performers.

I have attached the band’s linktree where anyone can reach out to us if they are interested. If there are any questions or somewhere else I should address this message, please let me know.

Thank you for your time,
-Courtney Lamb
