Audition requirements
Email wendy.grindle@cdn.ac.uk to confirm that you are interested in taking part and attach a copy of a video from your phone.
The video should include the following three things:
- Say your name

- And give us a smile
Proud Motion will then select a mix of students to reflect the demographics required for the ad.
Please send your videos to wendy.grindle@cdn.ac.uk no later than 5pm Monday 15 October.

We will be looking to get shots of students in various locations including city, leisure, social and rural. We will try to ensure the location picked can achieve all of these things without the need to move around too much.
Actions
Actions required from the students taking part will be national action shots, siting, walking, looking at something and each student will be required to do a smile to camera.
Costume
Each student should bring two costume changes of casual/stylish clothes (similar to what would typically be worn to college). Please ensure these are clean and ironed and please also ensue clothing items have no visible brands or logos.

The advert will be aired on STV through November and will be used by colleges across Scotland on their websites, in-college TV screens and social media. We are looking for a wide range of students on any course, of any age and background.
