CAS is supporting the following casting for an HSBC commercial:

CHINESE CHILDREN
1) Grandson (main character): Five years old boy. Very cute with big eyes: he definitely needs the “ahh” factor. Thoughtful, sensitive and considered – maybe even a bit shy. Not at all precocious.

2) Children (supporting characters): Five other children ranging from seven to 17. Boy and girls. If they look like they’ve come from the same family then great, but not a deal-breaker as cousins don’t always look the same.

CHINESE ELDERLY MALE (main character)

1) Grandfather: 70-80 years old. He'’s worldly wise but spritely. On the surface he projects an air of authority, but in his eyes there'’s a glint of warmth and playfulness.

He needs to look old enough for us to believe he could be losing his marbles, and cheeky enough for us to believe he'’s taken everyone for a ride.
