HAIRY TIME
SELF SUBMISSIONS
simon max hill casting
Hey there! Welcome to the submission page for the “Hairy Time” PSA – the one looking for grizzled people with beards and facial hair. If you’re on this page looking for another project, you’re in the wrong place!
This page has everything you need to submit for the project – except for your info and media, of course. Once you submit, our client will review your media and decide if they want to hire. At that point we’ll reach out to your talent rep, or if you don’t have one, directly to you to hire. If you’re curious about the status of the project, you can check on it at our Now Casting page.
We also have a reference video, to get a sense of the director’s past work: https://www.torefrandsen.com/viking
DEADLINES FOR SUBMISSION
1st deadline: Friday Feb 10
2nd deadline: Sunday Feb 12
SELF-SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
To be considered for the project, you’ll need follow the steps below:
1) Get your media in order – see the list below for the media you’ll need to submit. A cell phone is the ideal device for this – we’re not looking for a pro photo shoot!
LIST OF MEDIA
[PHOTO] Photo of your face showing your current facial hair situation
[PHOTO] Photo of you from head to toe
[PHOTO or VIDEO] You are at a funeral of yet another friend, taken by Tetanus too young. Hold back the grief as best you can. Tears are okay but not mandatory. If you want to say a few words, that’s ok. If not, we respect silence as well.
[OPTIONAL] Additional media of yourself – photos, reels, additional takes of the above scene etc
2) Double check that you have all the media requested above, because the form will not accept your submission without all required media.
3) submit your media+info to us! Use the link below to do so.
SUBMISSION LINK
Quick FAQ about the submissions link:
If you don’t fill out all required text fields + upload all required media, your submission will be rejected by the system.
It works best with Google Chrome on a Mac. It usually works with PCs phone / tablets as well, but we haven’t tested it extensively on those platforms.
If you are submitting long videos, the upload could take minutes. You should see a little “upload progress” indicator somewhere on the page.
You should get a confirmation of upload success, either a green banner along the top or a page that says “Submission Accepted!”
