This is a promotional spot for a tech company. The commercial will be shot in walk and talk format. Our host (JENNY) essentially takes the viewer with her through multiple minimalist sets that house different characters engaged in scenarios where the featured tech product would be useful. The physical sets are changing around Jenny as she makes her way through the vast open space. The spot will rely heavily on rhythm, like a choreographed dance, with talent in constant motion in tandem with set pieces and background extras. Jenny interacts with both the characters on set and the camera itself, explaining to both how the product can be helpful, in a somewhat dry and sometimes cheeky fashion.Character Info
[JENNY] [GENDER: FEMALE] [AGE: 25-45]
Must have British or European accent. It is important for us to strike an appropriate balance between, witty/cheeky/sarcastic without coming off negative or smug. It is understood that this is dependent on writing as well as performance. It is important that Jenny be likeable. She has flow and natural charisma.
