Sakura Productions is producing a promotional film for the Retired Police Officers Association Scotland (RPOAS).
The film explores what happens when a career in policing comes to an end and the importance of staying connected to the wider policing family.
Through three individual stories, we explore retirement, identity, friendship, wellbeing and the support available through RPOAS. The film will feature three speaking roles, Fiona, David and Alistair, each offering a different perspective on life after policing.
We are looking for natural, believable performances that feel genuine and conversational rather than overly theatrical. Some of the material is emotional, so actors should be comfortable handling more serious subject matter with subtlety.
A natural Scottish accent is preferred, ideally from actors based in Scotland.
The finished film will be professionally produced and used by RPOAS across its website, social media and wider promotional and communications channels.

Content

Fiona
Female, 40+
Fiona is a retired police officer reflecting on her career, retirement and the importance of staying connected to the policing family.
She is warm, personable and positive, with a natural confidence. Her story explores the transition into retirement and how the relationships built throughout a policing career can continue to provide friendship, connection and support afterwards.
We're looking for an actor who can deliver the dialogue naturally and conversationally, as though Fiona is genuinely sharing her own experience. The performance should feel authentic and understated rather than theatrical.
Scottish accent preferred, ideally from Scotland.
Professional acting experience is preferred, but we're happy to consider the right person.
