This role is SOC, however the actor must convey fear of water without over acting. She must be able to cry when required. She must be able to act like swimming is hard and she is not good at it, however she must be a good swimmer in real life.

The production company is Uplift Media and the client is Impact Society. The video is part of a training series. The video is about 10 minutes long and is shot and looks like a film. The crew are all professionals in the industry and have worked on shows as recent as Heartland and Hell on Wheels.  The shoot will take place in the new year either late winter or summer. We are casting now so we know where we sit in regards to talent. Please submit non-union actors. This is a well paid gig and will be over $500.00 a day. We have yet to land on a firm rate as of yet. We are looking at a two day shoot. The project is produced by Tyson Wiebe. I am also doing the casting because there are few roles on this project.

Please forward headshot and resume to info@upliftmedia.com. Please put "audition" in the email heading. Auditions will take place in Calgary. Audition times and locations will be emailed.
