The PNE is casting for a commercial & participants get free tickets to Playland

If it’s your dream to appear on the big screen, we’ve got a fun opportunity to toss your way. The PNE is currently casting for a Playland commercial shoot, and participants will receive a free ticket to Playland for any date in this year’s operating calendar (May 18th to August 16th).

Interested in participating? The PNE is looking for individuals aged anywhere from 11 to 91 years old.

According to the casting call, individuals will be recorded one person at a time for approximately 30 seconds in front of a green screen. They’ll react to strong winds from a leaf blower during the shoot.

The PNE will then take the best footage and edit it together to form this year’s Playland video commercial, which will be broadcast on TV, YouTube, and the PNE’s social media.

The PNE will also use images for static advertising on their socials, digital ads, outdoor ads, print ads, and posters. So if you’re trying to get your face out there, this could be the way to do it!

Date & info

The commercial shoot will take place at various times on Saturday, April 6th, so mark your calendars.

Those interested can enter their contact information and availability online for the chance to be selected to participate.

So there you have it, aspiring actors. If you’re looking for something fun to do on a Saturday that lands you a free Playland pass, this is your chance!

Good luck & have a blast!
