Synopsis

Project Type: Branded Content / Commercial Company: Greptile Shoot Date: Wednesday, September 30, 2026 Location: San Francisco Bay Area Local Hire: SF Bay Area locals only. No travel or lodging provided. Principal Rate: $500/day Background Rate: $250/day — 5-6 hr day PROJECT DESCRIPTION Casting a stylized launch film for Greptile, set inside a sprawling 1970s corporate technology facility. A pull request arrives on a floppy disk and travels through an absurdly elaborate bureaucratic review process: towering stacks of printed code, rows of reviewers stamping pages by hand, enormous vintage computers and finally a mechanical testing system that actually runs the code. The film will be shot in a stark, cinematic black-and-white style. The humor is completely deadpan. Nothing should feel like a sketch or parody; everyone inhabits this world sincerely and treats the process with absolute seriousness.

Additional Information: SELF-TAPE REQUEST We're using one standardized self-tape for all three principals AND the background applicants, since this piece is much more about look, movement and deadpan physical performance than dialogue. Please submit a short video including the following: 1. OFFICE BUSINESS Frame yourself in a medium or medium-wide shot. For approximately 15–20 seconds, naturally perform office work: working on a laptop/computer, reviewing or organizing papers, shuffling documents, writing notes, etc. Please play this completely straight and natural. Do not try to make the actions comedic. 2. FULL-BODY WALK Position the camera so we can clearly see you head-to-toe. Please walk across frame and back twice at a natural pace so we can see your full body, movement and profile. 3. SLATE Please state:     •    Name     •    Height     •    Current city     •    Confirm you are available Wednesday, September 30     •    Confirm you are an SF Bay Area local hire Wardrobe: Please wear something simple and neutral. If you own anything that naturally evokes a conservative 1970s office/corporate look, feel free to wear it, but please do not purchase anything specifically for the audition. Role-specific action for the Man with the Trolley and the Inspector For those two roles, please add one tiny role-specific action after the general audition: MAN WITH THE TROLLEY: Please choose an ordinary small object and slowly present it to someone off camera as though it is extremely important or precious. Keep the performance completely serious. INSPECTOR: Sitting at a desk, review a piece of paper, make a decision, and deliberately “stamp” your approval. Please keep the performance subtle, authoritative and completely serious.
