PAID – Casting Male Voice Over Actors for San Antonio, Texas Television Commercial.

Studio/Independent/Student: Independent
Project Type: TV Commercial
Production Location: San Antonio, Texas

Synopsis:
TV commercial for new product.

Character Breakdowns:

* 2 male voice over talent needed,one a Spanish speaker and the other an English speaker both without an accent for a TV commercial. The ad is to market a new product and ideally the VO talent will be aged between 20-40 yrs old.

Please send examples of your previous work and we will contact you with a script if we are interested. This is for a complete buyout and the fee is 0 for each VO.

Paid/Non-Paid: Paid
Meals/Lodging/Transportation Provided: Snacks and Beverages

*Email Your Casting Submissions To: kimberley@bullfilms.com

Ignoring that their definition of "paid" = "0 fee for VO", I didn't know "snacks and beverages" was even an option via PayPal.

A complete buyout?! What, no residuals? Like maybe they'd send you a bag of chips every three months while it's running?
