Waldron Casting is looking for experienced jazz musicians for paid, non-speaking background roles on the hit television series "King Street," filming in Manhattan, New York.
This opportunity is open to musicians who own and can bring a trumpet, tuba, or trombone. You'll portray jazz musicians in background scenes, miming your performances to prerecorded music rather than playing live. This is ideal for experienced jazz musicians interested in television production and on-camera entertainment work.
What you'll do on set: portray a professional jazz musician in background scenes, mime playing your instrument in sync with prerecorded music, bring your own instrument to the filming location, follow directions from the director and production team, maintain realistic instrument handling and performance movements on camera, collaborate with fellow background performers to create authentic jazz performance scenes, and maintain professionalism throughout the production.
Requirements: You must be an experienced jazz musician with knowledge of trumpet, tuba, or trombone performance. You must own and bring one of those instruments. You need to be comfortable miming musical performances to prerecorded playback, available to work in Manhattan, New York, able to follow directions and maintain consistency during filming, and comfortable working as a non-speaking background performer. Previous television or film background acting experience is an advantage but not required.
Compensation: Special Ability SAG Rate of $224 per 8 hours. This is a paid non-speaking background opportunity.
