Bob (A Dead American CEO)– Male// 45 – 65 yrs old // Any Ethnicity 

Bob is a dead American CEO. He’s been dead for about 20 years. 
 He’s got the gravitas of an old-school titan of industry, but death has also mellowed him out, he has evolved slightly and sees things from a fresh perspective. What he lacks in functioning organs and bone density, he makes up for in charisma and personality. For the shoot you would be dressed in character with heavy FX/makeup/ prosthetics (as a dead decomposing body come back to life). MUST BE A FIT AND SLENDER TYPE – the shoot is going to be fairly busy with heavy prosthetics and makeup. NEED TO BE GOOD WITH COPY. GOOD WITH IMPROV AND SUBTLE COMEDY. NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO MOVE WELL, DANCE AND SING A LITTLE WHILE WEARING PROSTHETICS AND MAKEUP. MUST NOTE THAT YOU HAVE A HAVE A VAILD PASSPORT TO BE CONSIDERED. IMPROV AND COMEDY NOTES ARE HELPFUL TOO.

Shoot $750, Buyout Rate $10,000
Travel and down days $500

Allen (a born-follower corporate employee)– Male// 50 – 67 yrs old // Any Ethnicity 

A man in his 50’s- 60s, with the sense of a born follower. He rose up through the company by following Bob’s blueprint, rather than being an innovator himself, and is almost in awe of Bob — even if he’s looking the worse for wear these days. He has to be funny without actually doing too much. Slightly neurotic, constantly worried about something – even when there is nothing to worry about. Think someone like Frank from Succession. Does not need to be a handsome businessman. He can appear as if stress and worry have taken a toll on his visage over the years. He is the chrony to Bob and should feel a bit more meek and less sure of himself than Bob. SHOULD BE GOOD WITH IMPROV AND SUBTLE COMEDY. NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO MOVE WELL AND SING A LITTLE. MUST NOTE THAT YOU HAVE A HAVE A VAILD PASSPORT TO BE CONSIDERED.

Shoot days: $750 Buyout Rate: $5,000
Travel and Down Days: $500

Francine (ambitious executive) – Female // 35 – 55 yrs old // Any Ethnicity 

Francine is an ambitious exec, someone who only knows Bob by reputation, a go-getter, embracing the modern ways wholeheartedly. She is bright, charismatic and must have a comedic side to her. Someone who can be funny without doing much. Think Britt Lower from Severance. SHOULD BE GOOD WITH IMPROV, SUBTLE COMEDY, DANCING AND SINGING. THAT YOU HAVE A HAVE A VAILD PASSPORT TO BE CONSIDERED.

Shoot $750, Buyout Rate $5,000
Travel and down days $500
