Synopsis

When was the last time you felt like yourself? Been a while, huh? The daily grind has a way of doing that. Well, there is a place where the real you can come out. The you that's carefree and fun. Vibrant and alive. The you that’s all about winning in life. From leading a late night blackjack rally with your crew to rocking out front row like it’s 1986. From cashing moneyline parlays to crushing mobile jackpots. From fully-pampered spa days to steak dinners with perfect wine pairings. The you that’s full of high-fives, belly laughs and always ready to go wherever the night takes you. The real you. Soaring Eagle lets you out. Let out your inner winner! We're looking for talent with memorable faces and strong expressive range. These performances are not about subtlety. We need actors who can move convincingly from completely despondent to genuinely ecstatic. Comedic backgrounds are a plus, as they often bring the timing and physicality these concepts demand.

Additional Information: Two roles: Hero and Oblivious Guy Looking for Improv / Comedy Experience Shoot day: 7/9 or 7/10 Must be able to be in Minneapolis for the shoot day. AUDITION TAPE INSTRUCTIONS PLEASE INCLUDE A SLATE: Name Location Brief acting background Have you done improv? If so, tell us a little about your experience. Please frame yourself from the chest up in good lighting. We are primarily looking for expressive faces, strong reactions, personality, and comedic instincts. "WINNER FACE" SPOT HERO 30-50 SHOW US YOUR FACES Let's start with your "bla" faces. Give us a series of deadpan expressions. Some can be sad, some despondent, some completely vacant. Show us a range. Hold each expression for a few moments before moving to the next. Then let's see the opposite. Imagine you're having the time of your life playing slots, blackjack, roulette, or craps. Suddenly you win big. Give us several versions: A huge, over-the-top win A genuine joyful win A more understated win A win that's just a subtle smile, wink, or eyebrow raise to camera THE REVEAL Imagine you've been wearing a rigid mask over your face for years. It's glued on and has hidden your happiness from the world. Now slowly peel that mask away. As soon as it comes off, joy begins to flood back in. Take a moment to discover your smile. You haven't felt this way in a very long time. Let the feeling build naturally into a grin, a laugh, or whatever feels truthful. Please give us a couple different takes. BUS WINNER Imagine you're riding a crowded city bus. You're looking down at your phone playing a casino game. Suddenly... You win big. Give us two versions: VERSION A: You celebrate instinctively, then realize everyone is staring at you. Now you're trying to dial it back and act normal. VERSION B: You celebrate with absolutely no shame. In your mind, everyone on the bus should be celebrating with you. Take it as far as you'd like. Bonus points for a victory dance. OBLIVIOUS GUY Male, 25-40 Large build Comedy/improv background encouraged THE BUS GUY Play this scene all the way through a few different times. You board a crowded bus, but you're treating it like your own living room or home office. You're on the phone with your buddy Chad. You're talking a little too loudly. You take up a little too much space. Maybe you accidentally bump into someone. Maybe you spill a little coffee. Maybe you're blocking the aisle without realizing it. Play around with the scenario and explore different versions. The key: You're not trying to be rude. You're not a jerk. You're simply operating with almost zero awareness of the people around you. Find the truth in that. We are looking for someone who can be hilariously inconsiderate while remaining completely likable and oblivious to the chaos they're creating.
