CONCEPT
This video campaign for Bausch + Lomb Soothe Antibiotic Drops will be shot in a documentary style, in the form of an interview.
Children will sit comfortably in a chair, in a living room, and answer questions asked by an off-camera person in French.
The questions will be about what they are bringing home from school.
The idea is to show, in a natural and fun way, that children sometimes bring unexpected things back from school, such as conjunctivitis (pink eye) or a bath tub infection.
We're looking for spontaneous reactions, fun answers, and endearing personalities.
WHAT THE KIDS NEED TO DO:
Sit comfortably in an armchair or recliner.
Answering questions from a person off-camera in French.
Talking about school and the things they bring home.
Be natural, spontaneous and expressive.
WANTED PROFILES
Children aged 4 to 11, speak French or bilingual.
All ethnicities are welcome. Children need to be comfortable on camera. They must be able to answer questions naturally like in a real conversation.
IMPORTANT: Children need to be comfortable speaking French or able to give simple and convincing answers in French.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SENDING YOUR APPLICATION:
Prepare a self-tape in the form of a short interview.
An off-camera person has to ask a child three questions about school and what they bring home.
Example Questions: What did you report from school today?
Let the child answer naturally, with their own words. We want to discover his personality!
IMPORTANT: IF YOUR CHILD IS BILINGUAL, PLEASE SEND HIS SELF-TAPE IN FRENCH AND ENGLISH.
