Thom is mid-twenties, of pleasant appearance but slightly shy and bookish. Madly in love with the lead female character but too shy to tell her, he manages to save her life at the end of the movie.

German-speaking Voiceover Artiste (male) – Apply
I’m after the above to ad an emotive male voice to an advert that will hopefully be very different from most petrol/car adverts out there. You will play the voice of a 30+ male who goes driving at night when it’s quiet and empty, telling us why you do it, etc. I’ll need you for maybe half a day. If you’re not naturally German-speaking, you will need to have a decent accent that would be passable as a genuine German man.

Pay rate: 100-150
