A friend of mine is doing the casting for this. Make sure to mention me if you send in a submission:
Nationally Known Fast Food Chain Karaoke Web Videos
A nationally known fast food chain is casting a series of short web videos in support of this year's Superbowl ad campaign. The videos will feature a variety of offbeat characters performing an 80's hair band inspired karaoke tune. We are looking for the characters listed below only. Please do not submit if you do not fit any of the descriptions. You must reside in Portland or surrounding area. You must be available to shoot the week of January 7th, 2013. There is paid compensation.
Businessman. Male. Age: 30s-40s. Preferably Asian, but all ethnicities apply. He has the worn look of a traveling salesman who has given up on really making it; ill-fitting suit, spare tire in the mid-section. He just finished up at a conference and hit the mini-bar hard. Re-living the glory days with his singing.
Cat Lover. Male or Female. Age: Late 20s/early 30s. Any ethnicity. Authentic, not ironic cat lover. Emotional fragility, might be ont he verge of tears.
Young tipsy woman. Female. Age: 21-25. Any ethnicity. She's a community college student who works at a restaurant chain. Pretty in a suburbs/middle American kind of way. She's drunk enough to be really going for it - and believing she's nailing it.
Rocker Kid. Male or Female. Age: around 10yrs old. Any ethnicity. (Must have a valid minors work permit). A kid that unbashfully loves music from a different generation. Completely not self-aware.
To be considered, send us a 15-30 second video (laptop/smartphone videos are preferred) of you singing your favorite 80s hair band karaoke song in-character.
Email the video to casting@sandwichvideo.com no later than Friday Dec. 14th. The sooner the better! Don't forget to include your contact info and a photo of yourself in the email.

but I love making ca$h!
I still can't believe Bill Mc edited me out of all scenes in his big feature. In fact, the one scene in which I actually tried to act was never mentioned between the two of us. We simply didn't talk about it, ever. It was just deleted (I assume) and forever after understood that I would never again try to be in one of his films.
