Casting for photographs for a GOVERNMENT OBESITY HEALTH advertising campaign
Casting : By photographs only
Fee: Unrecognisable Model Fee : £400.00 + 20% per day
Usage: All Print & Digital excluding OOH & TV, UK , 5 Years
The four subjects are all a bit overweight. Everyone will be unrecognisable.
The photographs will all be from the point-of-view of the subject, (so in
the main, all we see are arms, hands and legs), but the character of each
person should still come through in the brief glimpses of them.
Seeking (in the words of the client)

Please email ASAP with good clear photographs as I have to send the pictures
on to my clients, so the bigger the photos are, the more likely that you /
your actors will be selected!!!
As well as portraits, I’d like to have three-quarter or full-lengths shots
of each subject
