Hundreds wanted as extras in video on PE

An Eastern Cape company, Rooftop Productions, is putting together a new marketing video for Nelson Mandela Bay Tourism. The company is on the lookout for hundreds of extras to take part in the video which will be screened nationally and will also reach international audiences.

“We need people who will be able to fill both key character roles as well as filler roles as extras,” says Linda Meiring from Rooftop.

The video is a two and a half minute commercial-style video that will be very intensive in its requirements with regard to casting people.

“We are wanting anyone who is keen to be involved in this (or other productions in the future) to send through their details so that we can get together a large group,” says Meiring.

“We are not only looking for models, but all ages, shapes and sizes. One scene for example is going to require us to fill a section of the new stadium to re-enact a soccer match crowd! The only real requirement is that we need people who are comfortable in front of the camera, with sunny and vibrant dispositions.”
