Casting Calls Span Seven U.S. Cities

Casting listings span Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Boston and Charlotte, with opportunities in short films, feature films, television, game shows, reality programs and music videos. Roles include the short-film characters Lyna, Leon and Bianca; feature-film parts such as Tom, Adrian, Noah, Tyler, Elias and Jake; and contestants for Trivial Pursuit. Reality-TV openings seek gamers, creators, athletes, influencers, unique couples, people considering plastic surgery and individuals with unusual habits or obsessions, with some offering up to $4,000. Other opportunities include stand-ins, background performers, period-television roles, gala and country-club attendees, music-video talent and a young musician. Although organized by local markets, several jobs involve filming elsewhere, including New York-area communities, and compensation ranges from unpaid or undisclosed to several hundred dollars per day or more.
