Hey, All-Star Sooners! Come to OU’s Open Video Casting Call

Hey, All-Star Sooners! Come to OU’s Open Video Casting Call

Want to see your name in lights or have your mug on a billboard? Come to OU's casting call May 4 to be featured in upcoming OU promotions.

We’re looking for Sooners who aren’t camera shy, who love talking up the University of Oklahoma and who want to add a little something extra to their resumes.

Seem like you? If so, OU wants you to come to its first-ever open casting call from 9 a.m.-noon and 2-5 p.m. May 4 and show us your skills on camera. We’re compiling a group of talented students we can call on to help in OU’s marketing efforts in the 2016-17 school year and beyond.

Who knows, maybe you’ll one day fill Alexi Smith-sized shoes and host an episode of Hi5OU, the OU web series that counts down the month’s top five events. Maybe we’ll call on you to participate in a focus group to test a new app, give feedback on an OU webpage or rate an OU program. Or maybe modeling is more your thing; we’ll also need students to vogue in campus photoshoots. 

We’re looking for Sooners of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds. No need for fancy clothes, and no acting lessons required. Come as you are, but please fill out our accompanying form first.

Here’s what to expect when you arrive: When you show up to OU's Office of Web Communications, Marketing & New Media, we’ll get you behind the camera and have you read a couple lines we’ve prepared (expect to say “Boomer Sooner!” for sure). We'll ask you to smile for a headshot and you'll be on your way within minutes. We’re located at 765 Asp Ave. Suite 209, above Chipotle on Campus Corner.

We know we’ve got a star-studded campus, and we’re excited to learn more about our all-star Sooners through the open casting call. If you have questions ahead of time, please reach out to Morgan Day, OU WebComm content manager, at morgan.day@ou.edu.

See you May 4, Sooners!
