Casting Call

16 June 2017

arvold.casting is holding an open casting call seeking YMCA members and real people ages 20–60 for a still photo ad campaign for the YMCA of the USA. We are looking to cast people of all genders,
ethnicities, and body types. Enthusiasm for group exercise a plus, no modeling experience necessary. Members of the YMCA are encouraged to attend and the general public is also welcome.

Select applicants will be chosen to participate in a photo shoot on July 13th & 14th. Photos will be featured in an ad campaign used to promote group exercise classes offered by the Y across the country.
Participants may be featured on flyers, posters, banners, YMCA websites and more!

See below for further information and RSVP instructions for the open call.
