“The younger CouplE”

DEADLINE May 22, 2026
CALLBACKS Week of May 29

Shoot Dates: Late June – Mid July  |  Compensation Provided  |  Local Talent Preferred

THE ROLE

We’re casting two performers, ages 25–35, to portray a couple in this role. Both individual performers and real couples of any pairing are encouraged to apply. For individual submissions, pairing will be handled as part of the callback process, while couples may audition together. No acting experience required.

Direction: A laid-back, curious pair who love wandering record shops, grabbing drinks downtown, and stumbling into something unexpected. Natural chemistry, genuine warmth, and a sense of humor are key.

QUALIFICATIONS

  • Talent ages 25–35. Individual and real couple submissions and welcome.

  • Open to all gender identities and couple pairings.

  • Natural, easy-going energy. No stiff “actor-y” vibes, just be yourself.

  • Genuine warmth and a sense of humor.

  • Someone who lights up talking about Grand Rapids.

  • Acting experience is a bonus, but authenticity is everything.

THE PROJECT

A tourism commercial with a simple premise: Grand Rapids isn’t what you expect, and neither are the people who love it. The spot features two couples whose weekends look nothing like what you’d guess from the outside. It’s a feel-good story about a city that surprises you.

We want real people who genuinely love Grand Rapids to bring it to life.

HOW TO SUBMIT

Record a short video under 2 minutes on your phone. No fancy setup, just be yourself.

Include:

  • Your name, age, where you live, phone number, and a little about yourself.

  • One thing you genuinely love about Grand Rapids

  • If video is over 100 MB, please send as link.

That’s it. No script, no prep, no pressure. Just show us who you are.
