CASTING: New Yorkers for Sports Brand TV Commercial (PAID) $$$

Vitamin Enriched, a real people casting company, is seeking real New Yorkers ages 16–80 for an upcoming SAG commercial shooting in New York City! We’re looking for authentic New Yorkers creating a reflection of contemporary New York streets and the vibrant, intersecting communities that make up the city. We’re seeking a diverse spectrum of cultures, ethnicities, ages, body types, and genders. We’re looking for real New Yorkers who truly embody the spirit of New York.

Maybe you’re buttoned-up and classy. Maybe you’re a fashion executive, a Harlem virtuoso musician, a sneakerhead, a diamond district jeweler, a runway model, or someone with a polished, unmistakably New York sense of style. Maybe you’re free-spirited, carefree and cool. Maybe you’re a courier, cab driver, construction worker, builder, creative, lifelong New Yorker, street-style kid, raver, neighborhood regular, a fun abuela, etc.
