Paying Gig for Plum Productions for Kids ages 7-12

Hi all - passing on this casting notice from Plum Prodcutions for PAID gig for kids ages 7-12. See below for how to submit! Please call or email Kellye Blosser at kellye@plum.tv with any questions or to schedule an audition. ATC has no more info about this audition:
~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
 
Plum productions is casting a series of web/ipad videos for Highlights magazine for kids.  We're looking for a diverse group of talented, energetic children to appear in short video segments telling jokes, making crafts, and preparing fun recipes.  This could be a great opportunity for kids who are looking to get more on-camera experience.  Details are below.
 
Client: Highlights Magazine
 
Usage: web & iPad app
 
Shoot Dates:  TBD, probably week of 7/16.  We will be shooting roughly 6 scenes per day over 6 days.  Each kid will probably be asked to shoot on more than one day.
 
Shoot Location:  Plum Productions' studio
 
Union Status:  This is a non-union job.
 
Content:  This is a series of short segments of kids telling jokes, making crafts, and preparing recipes.  Each segment features one leading and two supporting cast members.  Some double-casting may occur.  
 
Style:  Genuine.  The client would like to portray healthy, happy kids being themselves and having fun. They're not interested in promoting stereotypes or stock characters.
 
Roles:
Leading Cast - These kids would be on-camera narrators who direct us through the activities.
Supporting Cast - These kids would participate in the activities, but would be less likely to narrate.
 
Ages:  7-12
 
Race/Gender:  This casting call is open to either gender and all races.  We're hoping to cast a very diverse group of kids.
 
Personalities:  This is the most important quality in casting.  We're looking for unique, dynamic kids who want to be themselves rather than put on a character.
 
Rates: 
$200/day (non-negotiable, includes full day session fee, 4 year usage, and agent fee) 
 
 
Audition Times:
Wednesday 6/20  - 2PM until 7PM
Thursday, 6/21  - 2PM until 7PM
Since the auditions are so short, multiple actors could have the same appointment time.
 
Audition Location:
Plum Productions
1545 West Rosemont
Chicago, IL 60660
 
Audition Type:
The audition will have two stages:  1) Tell a joke and 2) Make ants-on-a-log.  Details are attached.
 
Please call or email Kellye Blosser at kellye@plum.tv with any questions or to schedule an audition.  
Thanks so much!
